Easter weekend is upon us and while Easter is about a lot more than colorful eggs and candy, that doesn't mean you shouldn't indulge.  Rather than filling your basket with Peeps and Jelly Bellly jelly beans, why not buy local and get some incredible candy made right here in the Northland?

Here are 3 places you should visit in the area to create a delicious collection of amazing local treats.

    Hepzibah's Sweet Shoppe

    Dewitt-Seitz Marketplace in Duluth's Canal Park

    If you're looking for truffles, this is the place! The truffles are amazing, as are the chocolate Ore Boats. There's also hand made fudge and a variety of other goodies.

    Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory

    Canal Park, Duluth & Miller Hill Mall

    The word "chocolate" is in their name, so of course all their chocolates are delicious.  However, make sure you try one of their legendary apples dipped in an amazing variety of flavors. You'll never think of a carmel apple the same way again.

    Sweeden Sweets

    601 Tower Ave in Superior

    You can't go wrong with their homemade chocolate, fudge and candy, but you'd be doing yourself a disservice if you didn't pay a visit to their awesome Ice Cream bar, featuring homemade ice cream and cones.
