Lofts chocolate parlays

[Louise]

Please,please if anyone knows where these chocolates (parlays) can be found let me know. I,ve tried everywhere. Did another company buy out Lofts and are they still making this "out of this world" chocolate? THANKS

[Sheena]

Could you describe what a parlay consists of?

[Lisa Malfi]

Help. Parlays were my dad's favorite chocolates and he is celebrating his 80th. I'd love to locate some chocolate parlays. Any ideas.

Hi,
The search is on again. I am an auditor and my boss lives in Great Neck. Wasn't it easier when they had their own stores?

Hi again,
Here we go and hooray for google. Maybe you can put in a good word for me to Mr. Howard.
Thanks,
Steve

Glad to see that others remember the Parlay bar. In the late 50s and 60s when I was a kid growing up in the North Jersey suburbs, they were my very favorite candy. My mom used to buy the box (8 unfoiled,and one gold foiled, I think) and give us half of one as a treat. Occasionally you could find invidudal bars at better candy displays, for 15 cents a bar, a fortune compared to the 5 cent candy bars.... but they were never quite as good as the ones in the box, for some reason. As Ali G (Borat's alter ego) would say: Dey was da BEST!!!

I couldn't get on to the Barracini site ... but .... Just got back from Schwartz Chocolates in Carle Place, Long Island ... 1 800 522 2462 and picked up a pound of Parlays.

[deserthawk]

By sheer coincidence, Schwartz happens to be my last name. I live in Arizona now, so won't be picking any up anytime soon, but enjoy your Parlays. Are they still as good as I remember?

That site for Schwartz tells a gtreat story of that business BUT no pix of what a Parlay is! I found this better link:

http://www.marzionnachocolate.com/par...

[Mr4wrestle]

Only problem is I called Marzionna twice & left messages and they never called back. Then I found Schwartz within a short drive from me. They taste exactly as i remember them.

[cubanat]

now the link isn't working correctly, sorry. they seem shady!

[Moiselover]

Actually you can special order a pound of parlay bars at Lazars Chocolate in Great Neck NY. They do a nice job.
