Harbor Sweets, a Salem, MA-based company now celebrating its 50th anniversary has been producing handcrafted, unique New England Chocolates since 1973 with their original nautical-themed collection and the iconic Sweet Sloops remaining a favorite since the company’s beginning.




The Easter Bunny is hopping into the Harbor Sweets store in Beverly! Don't miss the chance to take your photo with this beloved bunny and enjoy samples of Harbor Sweet's handmade chocolates. Also available are Harbor Sweets’ season goodies including Easter baskets, a self-serve candy wall, stuffed animals, Easter-themed gummies, lollipops, and ice cream!

Did you know that the origins of the first chocolate Easter Bunny can be traced back to Harbor Sweets in 1890? Harbor Sweets founder Ben Strohecker's grandfather, Robert L. Strohecker, is known as the "father of the Easter Bunny” when he pioneered the concept of creating a five-foot-tall chocolate bunny! The Harbor Sweets Robert L. Strohecker Assorted Rabbit Collection is modeled after this original giant rabbit.
