Product Description

Timeless Traditional Hard Cover Book (100 Year History)

Discover the story behind Manhattan's oldest chocolate house, formed in 1923.

In 1914, Aristomenis Demetrioux stepped off the SS Laconia at Ellis Island, a young immigrant with the rare skills required to create chocolate. Nine years later, that same young man, now known to all as George Demetrio would make his mark and would rise to be the proprietor of the New French Candy company located on 120 Christopher Street in the heart of Greenwich Village, Manhattan.  Through his tireless devotion to quality and traditional methods, what later would be known as Li-Lac Chocolates, would become one of New York City's premier chocolates houses.

    Wonderful Candy Store Story!

    Wonderful Book! I am from a chocolate family and enjoyed this book so much. The story enthralled me as it is an immigrant story and a history of the past when mom and pop stores started and preserved. One of The chocolate makers was a chocolate mold maker who did this for over 30 years and then became one of the owners. He lived alone, walked 2 miles a day and worked 6 days a week on 11 hour shifts! I enjoyed the story of how this store started, survived, and then flourished. Customer Quotes are the best,... this candy story is all about the memories. I also ordered the 2 lb Holiday Box...Great Box and Chocolates were wonderful! Butter Crunch, Non-pareils , chocolate Bark and dipped caramel chocolate pecan Turtles! photos of my Greek grandparents dipping chocolates in Northern Minnesota included below
