In Lofty Pursuits, our store and candy factory, we have a collection of restored hand cranked candy making machines from the late 1800's. Drops are made by feeding the hand needed hot sugar into these presses to produce a sheet of candy that is cooled and "Dropped" into the various shapes that were pressed into the sugar. This is why "Lemon Drops" or "Cough Drops" are called "drops". We have a selection of shapes we make of different flavors, and each shape has a different feel in your mouth. The flavor will match the shape, and will remind you that sometimes they did do things better years ago.

Shipping Update
Our candy is hand made, we are currently running +/- 1.5 weeks to ship orders. This is not an exact time table, some orders will go out sooner, and some a little later depending on current production schedule. Please keep this in mind when you are ordering for a Christmas delivery.
As of this update we feel the odds are you will get your order right before Christmas. We think about 70-80% of orders can make it. If you need 100%, we can't do it. I'm sorry about that. We are making and shipping candy as fast as we can, but the orders are coming in twice what they did last year.
If you are not worried about getting your candy by the 25th, please put that in the comments. It will improve the odds that folks who need it for the holidays will get it, and we'll try to throw in a little something like a sticker as a thank you.
Thank you for your business (our candy is great even after Christmas :)
