Comfort Zone

Allie’s Edibles

Getting comfortable in certain situations can be tricky: being at a party with three of your exes, chatting with your old Spanish teacher while she’s naked at the gym, having grandma ask you for dating advice.

But you’ll have no trouble cozying up to Allie’s Edibles Indulgent Comfort Sweets.

The bars come individually wrapped in crave-worthy combos like chocolate-covered marshmallow, chocolate and peanut butter, and chocolate pretzel toffee bark. Purists go for the chocolate-covered ganache. Can’t decide? Consider the sampler. Orders come in two-piece pillow packs and quarter-, half-, and one-pound totes, all of which can be customized for special events.

But the company doesn’t stop with a perfect product. Allie’s gives back: either by donating chocolates to school bake sales and raffles or by contributing a percentage of a sale to a participating school or charity.

Just don’t get too comfy. Or you’ll have a weighty situation on your hands.

Available at Dayenu, 3220 California Street, inside the JCC (415-563-6563); online at alliesedibles.com.
