As a holiday gift from us to you, Ryan Berley, co-owner of Philadelphia’s old-timey favorites Shane Confectionery and the Franklin Fountain, will share the history and science of candy making. One of the country’s oldest candy shops, Shane Confectionery was revived by Berley and his brother in 2011, and it retains its original charm and flavors. Berley will demonstrate the classic clear toy candy–making process from start to finish (with pourings scheduled for 5:30 and 6:45 p.m.). Guests can expect to leave with a dose of good cheer . . . and samples!
