Description

“My Dad’s 80 years old and when I gave him some Velatis, he started crying. He absolutely loves these! It’s a tradition and brings back incredible memories for him. The candy is as good as ever! You guys are the best!” Ann B., Kensington, MD – July 27, 2005 “I asked my friend what she wanted from DC, that she couldn’t get anywhere else in the world. Guess what she said?! Velatis!” JoAnn R., Washington, DC – July 26, 2005 “My Mom and her best friend both worked at Woodies when their husbands were in the service. They lived on Velatis. They always said Velatis was the best treat in the world! This silly candy played such an important role in their lives.” Dona S., Fremont, CA – July 26, 2005 “This is ridiculously good!” Sue K., Richmond, VA – July 7, 2005 “What a pleasure it is to introduce people in Ohio to the best candy in the world! Graeter's is excellent, but nobody has caramels like Velatis!” Nancy B., Cincinnati, OH - May 26, 2005 “You might be pleased to learn that I introduced people to your scrumptious caramels on a walking tour called ‘Moveable Feast.’ I give each walk participant a candy as we stand in front of the site of the original store. So the caramel legend lives on!” Carolyn C., Washington DC - May 6, 2005 “This is wicked good!” Mary L., Boston, MA – April 23, 2005 “I ordered a bit much I know, but I haven't had any in 30 years! Yum!” Susan D., Pacheco, CA - January 5, 2005 Special birthdays & Velatis – a delicious combo "My Mom lived in DC and ordered Velatis for Christmas, then from Woodies. On a whim, I did a search on Google. It's not Christmas without Velatis! It’s a flavor from my childhood that I can't wait to taste again! I’d always compare other candies to Velatis, and it was never the same!” Matthew R., Alpharetta, GA - December 20, 2004 “My grandmother use to eat them. I went to the 9th & G Street store as a kid. I remember the black-and-white checkered floor.” Richard J., Paw Paw, MI - December 18, 2004 “So glad you’re back in business! My family loved your candy and always went downtown at Christmas to load up.” Betty E., Arlington, VA - December 17, 2004 “Velatis is a tastebud decadence.” Mitch S., Atlanta, GA - December 16, 2004 “I'm not a candy eater, but I love the flavor and the taste of Velatis!” Christine K., Holidaysburg, PA - December 15, 2004 “I received my order of Velatis candy today, and I must say it brought back memories of my childhood, as well as my early adult years. My Dad use to take me to Velatis for lunch when we were in Washington (they had a lunch area in the back of the store) and then we would take home a pound of candy. When I got married and moved to another state, he would send me a pound or two of Velatis once a month because he knew how much I enjoyed it. In the meantime, my father died. Years later when I returned home to live, the candy store was closed. While shopping in Woodward and Lothrop I found they were selling Velatis candy. What a surprise and what joy it brought me! Sadly to say, after a time there was no more Velatis and no more Woodies.
