Local Coffee Tasting & Artisan Candy Pop-Up: This Saturday in Falls Church!

Looking for the perfect Saturday morning plan? Come support two local, businesses and satisfy your sweet tooth before the summer heat hits!

Join 48 Blocks Fine Candy for our final Makers Matinee pop-up of the season this Saturday, June 13, from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM. We are opening our manufacturing studio (on the Falls Church/Tysons border) for a morning of fresh coffee, premium sweets, and community.

We are thrilled to be collaborating with our friends at Cafe Medrano, an exceptional family-owned Honduran coffee roaster. They will be in the studio pouring fresh, artisanal small-batch coffees—the ultimate pairing for our confections.

Inside the Studio Experience:

  • 🎬 Live Demos: Step behind the scenes and watch how our small-batch confections are crafted.
  • 😋 The Solstice Edit Tastings: Enjoy free samples of our artisan marshmallows (The Assets) and vibrant vegan pâté de fruit (The Prisms).
  • 👋 Meet the Team: Chat flavor arbitrage with our Principal Curator and say hello to our new interns!
  • 🎁 Father’s Day Stock-Up: Our gourmet marshmallows make the perfect luxury gift for Dad. Because our local studio pickups will be limited during our summer residency, this Saturday is your chance to get your favorites.

The event is completely free and open to the public, but claiming a slot helps our tiny studio team map out exactly how many fresh samples to prep.

Bring a neighbor, grab an incredible cup of coffee, and shop the studio before we go dark for the summer!
