Little small but mighty! They were so kind and let us know what was popular and the deals they had going on for the strawberry festival. It look like family working there because a kid was working the chocolate case and parents were handling the checkout. They were so kind and even cracking a few jokes. We got some butter toffee, toffee pretzels and chocolate covered strawberries. All soo good!! The strawberries were so fresh!

The people who run the store are friendly and pleasure to work with ! The place is so cute ! They have so much to choose from.

What an awesome, full featured confectionery shop. The prices aren't cheap but you can tell with…read moreevery bite that you're getting delicious, high quality treats. The decor in here is super cute, with all the different products being displayed in an organized and attractive manner. This alone makes this a more fun shopping experience than buying candy from a standard grocery store. At times, it may be difficult to determine the price of different items, but the staff is very helpful with helping shoppers navigate their way around the store. There is definitely something for everyone here, but this is especially good if you are a chocolate lover as there's a very wide assortment of available options here. This is particularly true if you're into truffles, with some interesting options such as jalapeno margarita, tiramisu, rum, and others in addition to the usual selection of fruit, coffee, caramel, etc. flavors. This is also a great spot to get interesting looking gifts. Outside of the usual gift boxes and tins, you'll find chocolate in fun shapes (like birthday cake), seasonal confection options with cute decorations, pretzels, nuts, chocolate pops, gummies, and more. Overall, this is a great place to shop for delicious sweets and competitive in price to other premium candy shops. If you're looking for something unique in both design and flavor, definitely come here versus going to a chain store.

Opened the sealed box a few days later and was beyond disappointed. Despite the "Best by 3/26/27" - the banana chips were so stale they truly tainted the smell and taste of the raisins, mangos, cranberries and pineapple. Removed them and placed in a mason jar after airing the batch on a cookie sheet a few hours. Buyer beware! Perhaps stick to their chocolates?

The young gentleman helping me was incredibly personable and friendly, even sharing the history of the store with such pride and enthusiasm. You can truly tell he loves where he works and values the family/business behind it. I was amazed by the variety and quality of chocolates -- definitely not your average commercial candy shop. Everything felt unique, thoughtful, and special. To top it off, he beautifully wrapped the gift in a box with a ribbon, which made it feel even more personal and meaningful. Definitely returning again -- both for gifts and for myself!

She told me they did not have it but instead of leaving it at that, she asked me if she could contact the owner and call me back. Within 20 minutes she called me back, told me the owner would order what I wanted, and have it ready for me within 2 days. It is rare to find this level of genuine customer service these days, and her help and great attitude really made my day. I will definitely be back to this store. Thank you so much for the exceptional service and the best ice cream I have ever had!

I haven't had the chance to visit the shop myself yet, but I'd love to stop by and check it out the next time I'm in the area!

We spotted Uniquely Sweet next door and saw their open sign was lit up, so we went in. The shop itself isn't very large, but they have a good selection of chocolates, other sweets, and unique gifts. The chocolate all looked good, but we decided to limit ourselves to two items each. I got two types of pretzel rods - one with caramel and sea salt, the other with toffee. Both were beyond decadent and I'm glad I didn't go crazy. My Husband got a ENRG Bar and a Mud Slide square. He said they were both delicious but I didn't try them since I was sure they'd be too rich for me. Our small bag of goodies was just under $8, which I thought was reasonable for such a sweet treat. If we get a chance to check out the winery when they are open, we'll definitely come here again too!

I thought ice cream was reserved when the braces go on, but who can say no to ice cream on a hot summer day. And getting your braces off is a big deal! Ice cream isn't the only "sweet" thing at Sweet's. They have chocolate and candy too, but he was on an ice cream mission. Lots to choose from, but after sampling a few flavors he opted for a cookies & cream shake. He said it was very tasty and enjoyed drinking it without all the cookies getting stuck in his braces. I opted out of a treat this time, but would certainly go back the next time I'm craving something sweet and have a feeling we'll end up back here when at the ortho for future retainer check appointments!
