Hands down, the best gummies in the world!…read more I stumbled upon Baren-Treff 3 years ago while wandering around Hamburg and I haven't been able to get myself to buy other gummies since. I jumped at the chance to go to Frankfurt with my husband when he was getting sent for work, solely to fill half my luggage with these delicious gummies. I literally went to this store 4 times during my stay to buy a few kilos each visit (they're very heavy to carry around for a 2 miles walk back to the hotel) No one else can make their gummies like Baren-Treff. It has the best chewiness consistency with that perfect combo of sweetness and tartness, all with some amazing fruit juice infused inside. They employees always offer samples of whatever flavor of the month is and I believe you can ask for samples of whatever they have in store as they have dozens of jars behind the counter. The definite flavors to buy are the Fruchtsaft-Waldfrüchte (fruit juice berries/forest fruits), Rote Rosen (red roses), and Saure Limo (sour lemonade?). Baren-Treff is far superior to Haribo and the ever money gouging Sugarfina. If you go to Germany, don't leave with a few bags of these!

Highly recommended. Best gummy candy. They offer samples. Do not leave Frankfurt without getting…read morea few bags of the gummy candy. These are better than many other brands. Upon entering the store, you are met with shelves of gummy candy options. Great alternatives to getting a keychain or postcard as souvenirs if you are visiting the area.

This is a cozily tucked away gem on a street just off the main pedestrian area in Heidelberg…read more Walking into the store is liken to time traveling to the 19th century: it's super quaint and charming, shelves filled with so many varieties of artisan chocolates and tins of hot chocolate and coffee to purchase as gifts or for yourselves. We ordered the hot chocolate and chose to leave it au natural, versus add one of the many aromas and flavors they offer. The drink was rich, thick, and velvety. It's what hot chocolate is supposed to taste like. We savored every drop. Run, don't walk to this chocolate confection heaven. It's now a staple for every visit to Heidelberg.

I was very pleased to see actual "inside" photos of this candy shop as the owner is always telling…read moreeveryone to please not take them! Maybe he softened up that day! :) Anyway, when we visit Germany, we live in Karlsruhe with long time friends ( a 40 minute drive from The Zuckerladen) ... and it is always one of the very first stops we make after we arrive in Deutschland. The owner is a charming and eccentric soul... The Willy Wonka of Heidelberg, and the candy he has selected for his customers is out of this world - from the standard German Gummi bears, to extremely amazingly fine chocolate, and everything in-between. Its location is also delightfully charming- situated in a nice cozy little part of town. A MUST when you visit Heidelberg... for the chocolate, and everything else that comes along with it.

Pretty much exactly the opposite of everything Dylan's, It'Sugar, Sugar Factory, etc. -- those stale chains and flagships. Such great warmth and charm. A Heidelberg highlight, and a must see when visiting!
