If you're a fan of BouNom Bakery, you will be a fan of BouNom Emporium. Khamla, the owner, recently opened up a gilded age candy shop right across the parking lot from there. They sell retro toys and candies from Japan, Korea, and Europe. It's a cute little shop that has a small silo connected to it. They did a wonderful job with the decor and colors inside and outside. When you first walk in, on the left there are an assortment of candies that you can scoop into a bag. You pay by the weight. The candies range from chocolate covered gummy bears to gummy cracked eggs. There was a table with more goodies. In the back you will find the toys and more treats. There was a room located in the silo that had a bench around it; it reminded me of a garden. Khamla was at the cash register and was super nice as always. She gave my son a couple of candies, on the house. She even had a shelf full of toys for the kids to play with. I was definitely like a kid in a candy shop! I have a sweet tooth and I love unique treats. The candies were so good; I loved the chocolate covered marshmallow and gummy bears and the banana candies. My family and I are definitely a fan and look forward to going back.

Next to the entrance to the Avon Deli. Look for the big silo.

"This is the day of the expanding man" (Steely Dan) The highly regarded and award winning BouNom Bakery has now expanded into the candy business with the opening of the BouNom Emporium. You'll find it on the lower level of the Riverdale Farms shopping center right next to the entrance to the Avon Deli (look for the big silo). Their beautiful and totally adorable store sells candy from all over Europe, Japan and Korea, has a cute little toy section, a play area for kids, and a few Asian grocery items like Buldak ramen from South Korea. We went to their display of chocolates and assorted candies that are sold for $26 a pound and picked out some chocolate covered almonds, some chocolate covered marshmallow buttons, and a chocolate buttercrunch square. That haul totaled 0.385 pounds for $10.01. When their charming and helpful attendant saw me eyeballing the South Korean ramen, she warned me they were spicy, which just made me even more determined to buy one! I decided on their Spicy Chicken Curry ($6.55) and I can't wait to try it. Our visit to the Emporium could not have been more pleasant. We can't wait to bring the grand kids over for a visit.

I've learned to identify talented people, and keep track of their upcoming projects. For example, I always try to know what Lin Manuel Miranda is working on (Have you heard his 2024 "Warriors" collab album?). Same thing with Khamla from BouNom bakery. BouNom's bakery draws from Asian and European influences, and it's one of the very best bakeries in CT. So when I learned that there would be a BouNom Emporium focusing on candy and toys, located nearby in the same shopping area in Avon, I planned to go ASAP. Not surprisingly, BouNom Emporium curates candy from Korea, Japan and Europe. If there's something cool, viral and/or hard to find, they may already have it, or it may be coming soon. Their recommendations included Mochi Gummies. They were a hit with the household. Other recommendations included the viral Swedish chewy candies. They're available by the pound. Also very cool and enjoyable. The store is cute like you would expect from Team BouNom. And you will appreciate the expertise as you explore the Store. I expect success for BouNom Emporium. 5 Stars

One of my favorite bakeries opened a candy store right across the street, how could I not love them? Visited during the soft opening and can tell it'll be a great place for those wanting to grab something new and fun to satisfy their sweet tooth. Highlights: These peach burst gummies are my new favorite, you need to try these. Also they have Apple Pay!

I love a good candy store. It reminds me of making a bag with my grandfather when he brought me to the local candy store. No more quarter candy or dime candy but we can definitely find unique and vegan candy here. There is a huge variety of sweets and chocolates. The gummies were my favorite!!

This place definitely is pricey but worth it as the only Swedish candy in the area. If you haven't had Swedish candy you will be pleasantly surprised as the flavor and quality is way above American candy. This place is very cute, clean, and organized. I can't recommend enough as there are so many options and the quality is worth the price. All your favorite options are here so you can try as little or much of it as you like. Staff was very friendly and answered all my questions- Definitely a try for candy lovers!!! Recommend

The store has a wide variety of options to choose from. They have boxed chocolates, truffles, fudge, bark, brittle, caramel & toffee, clusters, chocolate bars, gummies, UConn Husky bars, foiled chocolates, caramel popcorn, and many more. My family and I love to stop in to get treats and gifts. Gifting chocolate and candy is a big hit in our family. The chocolates and candies are high quality and tastes delicious. Every season and holiday, they have different chocolates and candies to match the theme. I love what I've tried but my favorites are the chocolate covered pretzels and Oreos. Yes, I highly recommend this place!

The first thing about Munson's is the smell. It is, of course, amazing. Your senses are overwhelmed with the delicious chocolate in the air. They have all sorts of chocolate - most is pre-boxed, and they have accessories like cards and stuffed animals to go along with it if you're getting a gift. Even right before Valentine's Day they have gifts for multiple occasions and persons. I appreciate the tokens for your dog walker. They also have cases of chocolate, and you can make your own box. For obvious reasons, they do not accept returns and I thank them for that!

Party City was founded in New Jersey in 1986. It's a party goods retailer located in the U.S.,…read moreMexico, and Canada. They have other stores under their name such as Halloween City, Toy City, Factory Card, and Party Outlet brands; there are over 850 of those stores throughout the world. Unfortunately, as of December 2024, Party City will start closing all stores in the United States. This location is in the Simsbury Commons. There were plenty of parking and the location is pretty quiet. The store was large and organized. The employee helping me was nice. I was looking for accessories for a holiday party and found it quickly. This place is great for all your party needs. There were costumes, balloons, candies, and more. It's really unfortunate that they are closing down in early 2025.

Everything is in this store, number balloons, balloons to spell a name, a long word or a short word. Unicorn decor, Spider-Man decor, St. Patty's Day decor, Americana decor, you want it, they've got it. You just need purple cups, plates and supplies that's here too! The store has it all really! Some things are a bit overpriced. I wouldn't get all my supplies here, as it can be costly, but for some things that may be harder to find at bigger retailers, Party City is a good go to.
