Lammes Candies is a family-owned candy business that's been around since 1878, but its long history in Austin almost ended when founder William Wirt Lamme made an ill-fated poker bet in 1885. He lost the business in the shuffle. Lucky for him (and you), his son bought it back and transformed it into the renowned candy boutique that it is today. Since there's a Lammes Candies right at Airport Boulevard and 53rd Street, not far from you, it's easy to swing by to grab a Valentine's Day treat for your sweetie.
If you're overwhelmed by the number of options, you can't go wrong with the Texas Chewie Pecan Praline. It's the shop's signature confection. Pick up a pair of the pralines or a larger assortment. If you want to go with a traditional box of chocolates, Lammes Candies can help here, too. Pick up a box of assorted chocolates, chocolate creams, or chocolate nut clusters, depending on what your paramour likes in a candy.
