Best of Boston

Party accessories may be this Coolidge Corner’s true raison d’être, but the candy selection alone is worth a celebration. Bins of chocolate-covered Jordan almonds, Haribo gummy bears and sour fruits, and pound upon pound of Jelly Belly jellybeans are enough to sweeten any outlook. Small bags of chocolates wrapped in whimsical foil or Sour Patch Kids for around $1 are the kind of indulgences that still fall within a kid’s (or parent’s) budget. Don’t bypass the chocolate case filled with Asher’s Champagne truffles.
