Mail Order

Before there was a Mass Pike, everyone took Route 20 to go into Boston. And in 1946, Hebert’s became the first roadside confectioner in the United States. This building was built 100 years ago to be a summer mansion, and when you walk in, you can sort of tell this was not built as a store. Kind of feels like you're in your rich uncle's crazy home. There are just shelves and bowls and baskets of candy everywhere you look.

"You can now go into the store, you can get yourself some fresh fruit, you can get a smoothie. I mean, nature's perfect food is really fruit wrapped in chocolate, because it's healthy and it's tasty."
