Handcrafting Smiles in California since 1924

Los Angeles - San Francisco - Sierra Foothills 

San Francisco Location is MOVING!

For the past 11 plus years we have had the distinct pleasure of being here on Historic Market Street to make, serve and sell the best candy we can to our community. But the time has come to make a change, one that can allow us to continue to our traditional business practices of handcrafting each batch of delicious treats. With that news we thought you might have a few questions and hope the following will answer the most frequent ones and enable you to still get you favorite Littlejohn’s treats.

 Over the past 3 years we have spent our days away from the San Francisco store searching for, building, and testing out a new kitchen. Because Littlejohn’s turns 100years old next year, we decided we wanted a long-term home for the new kitchen, somewhere that the real estate is not as volatile as the Bay Area. For the past 5 months we have been making most of the candy for the SF retail location in our New Sierra Foothills kitchen, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the quality. Later this month we will begin shipping all of our online orders from there as well.

 For 30 years I have called San Francisco home. We opened the Market Street location in 2012 with the hope we could bring smiles to the neighborhood, and we were blessed with a welcoming & vibrant community that only the city could provide. We have had so many opportunities to create new friends and deepen lasting relationships. We will miss having our Holiday Tree-trimming parties at this special location. Once we have closed the SF location, we will be taking a minute to breathe, before beginning to look for a new retail location in the Bay Area.

 Rest-assured that you will be able to get your favorite candy, it will just be from another location.

1) You can visit Mejia & Christopher in the Sierra Foothills wine region.

2) You can still visit my brother Mike & his sons in Los Angeles at the Farmer’s Market location.

3) And you can order online the same great candy you have come to enjoy.
