        <content>Hello.  I just had a baby and (at least for the next little while) I cannot travel down to econocandy for my much needed fix of black licorice cats and traditional jelly beans (not jelly bellies).  I live on the upper east side, and could definitely go anywhere above 57th street to try and find these treats that I am craving.  Most run of the mill candy stores don't carry these items, and Dillons (or whatever the name of that candy store next to Bloomies is) does not have them either.  I remember reading about a store on the Upper West Side, but cannot remember the name or location, and maybe there are others.  If anyone has any suggestions, that would be great.  Many thanks in advance.</content>

      <content>Alas, the Broadway Nut Store is no more, replaced by a "Smoochies!"  Don't get me started.</content>

      <content>Wow, that is a deep and gut-wrenching shame. I'm not in NYC anymore, so I was living in a happy fantasy where it was still there. I could get started, too, but... aw, damn. There's a really impressive Dutch licorice online store, linked in an old post I'm too lazy to look for right now. 
 
Are there any places left in NYC?</content>

      <content>I'm not sure where to find serious Dutch licorice in Manhattan now.  Truth be told, I overdosed on the stuff and don't miss it as much as the freshly roasted nuts on demand.  I'm going through a major peanut period, and have ended up ordering from Virginia because I can't find nuts as good as my old pal's on Broadway.</content>
