1-800-Flowers.com has launched an online “sweet spot” for chocolate lovers, filling a portfolio gap created after the $115-million sale of Fannie May and Harry London brands to Ferrero Group earlier this year.

This holiday shopping season is already shaping up to be merry and bright, according to data from the National Retail Federation (NRF) and Prosper Insights & Analytics.

Zollipops, created by 12-year-old “kidpreneur” Alina Morse, has become the top-selling sugar-free hard candy on Amazon, just before Halloween.

Harry & David will operate approximately 20 pop-up stores nationwide this holiday season, in addition to its 46 year-round retail locations, the company announced last week.

Sanders Candy and Morley Candy Makers will celebrate the grand reopening of their newly-remodeled chocolate and ice cream shoppe in Clinton Township, Mich. on Saturday.

San Francisco-based specialty retailer ​Lolli​ ​&​ ​Pops​ has spread its sweet stock into the Southwest by opening a store in Albuquerque, N.M. this month, kicking off a drive to double the chain’s number of locations by the end of 2018.
