Welcome!
Introducing Temper Confections, a playful, small-batch approach to sweets. Think of it as EHChocolatier’s free-spirited cousin, where we create candy, chocolates, caramels, cookies, and more, inspired by the moment. Some treats will be brand new, while others will be nostalgic favorites.
With a focus on less packaging, a more relaxed pace, and local pickup, Temper Confections is all about simple, delicious joy. No social media, no big production—just thoughtfully made confections, shared with those who truly love them. Each batch is small and limited, here for a short time before something new takes its place-so enjoy them while they last!
