Handcrafted with Love from Lewistown

Our Pennsylvania roots run strong, with factory locations in Souderton and Lewistown. From coating pretzels to filling truffles, there’s always something exciting to see at Asher’s factories. Lewistown factory produces Asher’s Handcrafted Collection of chocolates and confectionaries. Magic lives in the air asConfectioners hand dip, hand swirl, and hand package each item with love. Here’s some of our favorite Asher’s Hand-Crafted Specialties made in Lewistown!

Milk Chocolate S’mores

Three (3) big chewy marshmallow, floating on top of a sugary caramel graham, smothered in rich milk chocolate. It’s all the enjoyment of a classic s’more, but without the sticky mess. S'mores sit on a white plate with tan background.A classic take on a traditional s’more made better by wrapping a sweet, crunchy graham and fluffy marshmallow in a generous coating of milk chocolate. Our friends at Lewistown take extra care to swirl the chocolate design on top of each piece. That’s right, the chocolate swirl design on this piece is done by hand! Lucky candy makers place their hands into chocolate then twirl their finger over the piece, creating each beautiful treat. We want that job!

Dark Chocolate Mint Pattie

Hand Crafted Dark Chocolate Mint Patties. Two(2) Patties are broken open to reveal the white mint inside. The rest of the patties are whole to show the hand crafted chocolate design.Thick layers of dark chocolate brace against an airy chill of peppermint in these handmade patties. The white mint inside is complimented by a rich coat of dark chocolate. The chocolate shell is complete only when an Asher’s Confectionerswirls the signature design on top. It’s a wonderful indulgence.

Milk Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup

Milk Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups sit on gray background. Two (2) cups are shown whole while two (2) others are cut open to reveal a smooth peanut butter filling.It’s no surprise that a chocolate peanut butter treat makes the list! Who doesn’t love chocolate enhanced with nuts? Hand filled with love and an extra special peanut butter filling, these cups are over the top delicious. You’ll never eat peanut butter without chocolate ever again. The two are truly better together!
