Sweenor’s Chocolates
By Neil K. MacMillan
 Sometimes
at the end of a hectic day, or even in the middle, you just need to indulge in something
rich. Sure you could opt for the nearest mini-mart and buy that same candy bar that
sated you when you were a child, but let’s face it, if you’re going
for chocolate why should you have mass produced when you can have hand-made? With
three locations in Rhode Island and the availability of on-line shopping, Sweenor’s
Chocolates has the hand-made delicacies you’re looking for. Founded by Walter
Sweenor during World War II, the firm opened its first shop in 1955. These days
there are three shops: Wakefield, Charlestown and the original shop in Cranston.
Sweenor’s is the largest chocolate manufacturer in Rhode Island.
