Deez Nuts

Wall to Wall Nuts

Imagine there’s no cavities,
It’s easy if you try.
No calories upon us,
Around us only pie.
Imagine all the people,
Living for Paydays, aaays.

People may say you’re a dreamer. But you’re sure you’re not the only one. Myrna and Michael Somerstein, owners of Wall to Wall Nuts, will back you up.

The hole-in-the-wall sweet shop offers everything from handmade nuts like caramel cashews, praline pecans, cinnamon almonds, and maple walnuts to homemade cinnamon pretzels and chocolates. For nostalgia buffs, there’s a selection of old-school candy: Lemonheads and their cousins, Cherryheads, Orangeheads, and Appleheads; bubble gum cigars; and I Bet You Can’t jawbreakers. Homemade butterscotch chip and chocolate chip cookies top off the selection.

All the products are kosher, including the faux Pixie Stix that the Somersteins whip up themselves. Gift trays are available, and there’s even a candy emergency hotline.

Imagine that.
