Very disappointed with the lady who was currently working at the Sweet Factory store. Right away…read morewhen I walked in, she was glaring at me. I proceeded to tell her about my last purchase of the mini jaw breakers, which are supposed to have a somewhat chewy texture. I explained to her that the last time I bought them there, they were stale and before I could finish, she cut me off and was like "I can't give you samples!" So then I continued to question her, "so if I buy these candies and they are stale again, what happens?" And she responded very rudely, "I can't do anything about that," while the whole time she was giving me a dirty look and acting like I was making some crazy request. So even though I spent more than $40 for a big bag of candy and had to throw away literally half of the bag away (so throwing away $20), you mean to tell me you will allow me to make another blind purchase and I will just have to accept that they are stale?! No freaking way! You lost my business! Sweet Factory, you need to work on your employees' customer service. The lady was very rude and I didn't take the time to take her name because I was so disgusted with how she looked at me and dismissed me right away. She definitely could've handled that much more professionally and with a little more compassion for the customer. Sweet Factory, if you don't train up your staff to be more courteous, I'm sure you will lose more business! I will not be returning!

The cashier was very nice, offered assistants and was very welcoming. The prices are a bit steep, a regular mixed bag of candy is $13.96/Ib and if you want a mix of sugar free candy it's $15.56/lb. They also offer 50% off regular price pounds for holiday sweets. So if I'm craving sweets and am in the area, I make sure to buy the candy's I can rarely find anywhere else in regular stores or little candy toppers for when I make cupcakes! Also can't resist those chocolate covered gummy bears and sour anything, sooo goooood!

Owner was nice to me and I asked for a fruit cup, he showed me the medium and the large and since I was pretty parched, I went with the large. I asked for mango, jicama and cucumber and hold the watermelon. In a few minutes, my order was ready and it was so delicious. I sat outside on one of their tables and enjoyed my refreshing afternoon snack. Prices very reasonable and not charging me $15, staff very nice and fruit was fresh and refreshing. Easy parking too.

They're closed on Sundays, but that's never a hassle; during the holidays they extend their hours, which is great when gift-shopping season hits.

The staff are consistently warm and welcoming: they always have a sample ready and somehow nail a recommendation that matches my taste every time. Want something ultra-personal? Go for the Build-a-Box option and curate your very own custom mix. Seasonal packaging and ready-to-gift boxes make it easy to grab presents for any occasion.

Their piñatas are larger (about 3 ft tall) than what you can get online. It held up to 20 kids whacking at it lol. Just FYI don't fill it too much with candy because it gets heavy and the string gets loose. I'd recommend filling it with lighter objects like toys, pencils, stickers, etc. Note you have to separately purchase an eye mask, stick, and rope. They also sell a bunch of different Mexican candies and sweet goodies along with some party decorations and supplies. If you need a piñata, come check out this store!

Since then she is continuing to produce products and flavors that live up to the Dallmann name! Definitely Gourmet Quality!!! Isabella and her staff are true artists when it comes down to creating mini art pieces with unique flavors to choose from. You get to customize your order online (as this establishment is not a storefront) make your payment and it will be shipped to you. By special appointment only you can do a pick up. I suggest reaching out to them in order to arrange that. Her business facility is in an industrial complex shared with other family owned businesses and mainly this establishment is only for her private preparations of her delicious creations! Kept very clean and functional! We've been sporadic as customers ever since we got to pipe in the Grenache ourselves and sample the chocolate making process & yummy goodness! She's got very creative packaging too. So a special occasion can be very personalized too. Dark, milk, and even vegan options available. You've a choice to swap or double up on a flavor choice if she happens to run out of a particular selection. Truly spectacular products. You might even see them at a chocolate fest, or even wine or food pairing type event elsewhere! This time we tried a bar in conjunction too a chocolate box and my daughter is happy with it!

I thought the food was delicious. It started with some fresh fruit and then we had our choice of broccoli cheese or tomato basil soup.

We tried a few of the teas, everyone loved the Buccaneer Black Tea and the Peaches & Roses. The women who owned the business were so nice and we had fun looking around the little shop afterward.

I can't say I had the interest in going, however that changed and my curiosity about what a High Tea was, and the crowds here at "Tea Time" left me wanting to try it out. This was not just Tea, this was a bounty of tea, they had so many different types and flavors of tea (40+) that you sort of want to try them all, while technically you can as the tea is unlimited, but trust me you won't as the two pots of tea you start with, is a lot of tea for two! Sure, in a larger group you can try a lot more, but it's still a lot of tea. The Grand Tea, High Tea option was what we went with, and you started with a soup, followed by a tiered selection of sandwiches, desserts and scones. I assumed that I would have a snack here and then get something else to actually eat but I was filled to the brim when I left here. This place was full to capacity when we went, but you did not feel encroached on, the owner Louisa, the servers, all amazing, welcoming and nice. I feel like I was a bit unprepared as everyone else was dressed up with little hats, and my wife and I had no little hats! Next time, I will 100% at least sport that little hat, and there will be a next time, absolutely great experience!

Sure enough they had a six pack of my absolute favorite Scotchmallows for considerably less than you would pay if you bought them separately or not on sale. The woman at the counter was very friendly as I find to be the case at most See's candies. She offered me a piece of what they were sampling for the day. She also asked me if I'd had other flavors of scotchmallows. I was unaware that they had other flavors, but she said they had seasonal flavors and that the milk chocolate was a seasonal flavor. I had no idea. She gave me a taste of the coffee Scotchmallow. it was good, but I prefer the original. I really enjoy See's and will always be a big a fan.
