The Bethlehem shop relocated to the East Third Street spot in 2015 from a unit in a now-demolished building on West Broad Street, near the former Boyd Theatre.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was a pleasure to have served the community of Bethlehem for the last 10 years!!\u201d reads a sign posted on the East Third Street storefront. \u201cWe will continue to service the area with deliveries, as usual, through our others store locations.\u201d<\/p>\n

The concept, specializing in fruit arrangements designed to look like vibrant flower bouquets, quickly took off and became \u201ca cultural phenomenon,\u201d expanding rapidly to locations across North America, according to a historical account on the company\u2019s website.<\/p>\n
\u201cGrowing to hundreds of primarily franchised, locally owned and operated locations across the US and Canada, with the ability to hand deliver within one hour, Edible became widely known for being a creative gifting solution,\u201d the description continues.<\/p>\n
