Perfect tea mints We had a tea and candy store in Pittsburgh that made wonderful tea mints, after they closed I thought I would never taste anything as good again. I first received your mints as a surprised gift, and was so happy to finally find tea mints again, and just like at home I ate all the pink mints first. May 14, 2013
Memories Have been looking for these for a long time. I used to have the recipe when I was very young. It's been missing. This is a great find. April 12, 2013
ASHAMED When I saw these on your website they brought back memories of my youth. My mom always had these around for her MahJong Games. I loved to eat them. Naturally, I bought them from you, and am ashamed to admit that within a week I ate the entire box myself. I didn't share, not one bite with my family. April 12, 2013
What a Great Gift! I had these mints sent to my mom who turned 95 on Feb. 3. I thought they would be a cheerful gift during this long and somewhat dreary winter. She raved about their taste and creamy texture-------melt-in your-mouth. She and her guests claimed they were the best mints they had ever had. And she "advised" that they would make a wonderful gift for anyone. Such a hit! Thanks for providing them. February 20, 2013
Wedding Shower Treats Revisited! Ridged pastel mints were de rigeur at wedding showers long ago. My sister-in-law found a good local substitute in Denver, but, sadly, the candy factory shut down a few years ago. When I saw the Vermont Country Store picture, i could only dream they'd be as good! They ARE! They are SO good that I sent them to my brother and sister-in-law, my son, my niece and myself! Happy Valentines Day to all! February 14, 2013
So good I've looked for these candies for several years, as I remember them from my youth. Lo and behold, I found them by accident at your store while purchasing another item. They are every bit as good as I remember them, if not better. Thank you. January 30, 2013
Just like I remembered them I searched the internet for these to see if they were still available and I was surprised to find them. They were just as good as I remembered them to be but because they are so expensive (cost plus shipping) they are a treat I could probably only buy every couple years. January 9, 2013
Excellent taste..Great Memories! They were called Merrimints when I use to buy them in the 50's and 60's. Only one department store carried them in my small town. I doubted their authenticity when I saw them advertised in the Vermont Country Store catalog a couple of years ago....but to my utter delight, they had the same flavors and "melt in your mouth" consistency. THANK YOU VERMONT COUNTRY STORE you brought back some wonderful tastes and some "sweet" memories. January 2, 2013

What Our Customers Are Saying about Our Pastel Mints (1 lb. Box) …

"45 years ago my grandmother used to give these as a treat when we visited her as a child...I have been waiting to find these for years...they are wonderful, melt-in-your-mouth minty flavors...no disappointments here, even for the price..." - Debra, anytown, AL

"I have been searching for these for years! Lazarus Dept. store in Columbus, Ohio, carried these mints and had a huge case full. They had many different colors and flavors - blue ones, deep red ones (cinnamon). I am so happy to find them again - thank you!" - Kaye Neuman, Fort Lauderdale, FL

"My grandfather created Merrimints, the originals, and these are the next best candies to them!" - Elizabeth Schaper, Purchase, NY

"Strolling down memory lane . . . My mom used to buy these candies when she'd go grocery shopping as a ploy to get help putting groceries away. The deal was, we could open them as soon as we found them. Somehow they were always in the last bag we got to. Coincidence? I think not! Years later, I found out these were one of my husband's childhood favorites as well. I was so happy when I found them at the Vermont Country Store and could surprise him on Christmas day with these candies as a stocking stuffer. The look on his face was priceless! Thanks VCS for finding this wonderful treat!" - O'Shea McAllister, Mobile, AL

"I also got them at the Lazarus store in Columbus, Ohio. I ordered them for my wedding and people loved them, especially the dark red ones (cinnamon). Luckily, I had ordered several pounds of them, and people loved them so much they took some home with them. These are as good as I remember! Maybe we could try some cinnamon? Thanks!" - Cheryl Kessler, Phoenix, AZ

"Thank you, VCS, for finding and bringing back these mints! We used to have them only at Thanksgiving time at my grandmother's house when I was young. Years went by and I could never find them until I saw them in your catalog! Please keep them available!" - Wendy Herlein, Burlington, IA

"I remember these as a youth. They were expensive then, too. Only my aunt could afford them. They were a Christmas treat. What I miss are the cinnamon, orange and peppermint. Makes me feel young again." - Hal Young, Plymouth, MI

"I loved these mints as a child and couldn't find them till I saw them online. The only thing I see missing is the red ones, cinnamon flavor. Please see if you could make those and keep these available for us old timers...lol! Thanks." - Joy T, sugar grove, OH

"I, too, enjoyed getting the Merrimints at Lazarus Department Store in Columbus, Ohio. I would love to be able to purchase some cinnamon ones!" - LuAnn, Duncan Falls, OH

"We had these as children only when we went with Grandma and Grandpa on our yearly car trip to visit relatives in Indiana. They bring back so many memories of my brothers and sister and I "stealing" them from the picnic basket in the back seat. I miss those trips and I am so glad I found them again. Can't wait to get them for the holidays and surprise my sibs!! Thank you for finding them for me again!!" - Teri Knight, Stow, OH

"

"My mother loves the pink and white wafered mints. My dad would get them for her for special occasions and holidays. Dad has passed now, and I was just thrilled to see them in your catalog so I could get some for her for Christmas. She loves them." - Anne Trudel, Potomac, MD
