The moment you walk into the store you will instantly feel such an energy of overall happiness. Virginia & Judy greeted us with such a warm welcome. ( I could have spent all day just speaking with them). The Candy is Exceptional! Both Virginia and Judy loved sharing the different candies and to meet two of the workers that were involved in the daily creation and presentation of these Candies was and is a Gift!!! I live in Seattle but will easily make this trip 90+ Miles to come back and visit and purchase Handmade Candies.

I was in Astoria on 6/13/26 with a group of Seniors. It was hot and we were waiting for the…read moretrolley. I went in search of Caramel ice cream and found it at Schwietert's. Salted Caramel...by far the best I've ever had! BIG PLUS...I left my wallet there and didn't discover it until after getting home (2 hr drive!). I called the next day and they had it...intact with nothing missing. The wonderful woman I talked to offered to mail it to me as quickly as possible and trusted me to pay her the mailing fee! There really are still good people in this world! Schwietert's gets a huge A+ for both taste and customer care! Thank you, Lynn!

I figured I was invisible to them so I left the bottle caps I was going to buy at the counter and walked out. I feel like this isn't the first bad experience I've had at Schwietert's. It also makes sense as to why they have low star rating. I went across the way to frite and scoop. They confirmed I was not invisible by greeting me when I walked in.

There is a nice assortment of candies and at the front by the register they have chocolates that you can purchase. The only downside is the inconsistent offering of samples. When we came in yesterday, they were offering 2 samples for customers. Today when we went in, they said they weren't offering any samples.

I went into The Sweet Life because one of the signs on the outside of the building said "sorbet"…read more Being a non-dairy sort of person, I had to see what frozen desserts they had. At the time I was there there were only 2 alternate choices to dairy: mango sorbet & lemon poppyseed frozen dessert. Since I can get the mango at most grocery stores I went with the lemon poppyseed. Good choice as the lemon provides a zesty punch. The base of this non-dairy "ice cream" is coconut milk. Not because they told me, but because I can taste the coconut. Also, there are some teenie tiny nuggets of coconut oil (Remember coconut "oil" is solid at room temperature). I got a single scoop. However, it's large. Sitting in an 8 oz cup in such way to require a domed lid. Much, much tastier than your average lemon poppyseed muffin. Those are seem to be artificially flavored and bitter. If I'm buying a poppyseed muffin I go with almond ones. In addition to my surprisingly good "ice cream", the store sells oddles of candies. Lots of good chocolate. I picked up a novelty candy purchase, a tin of Bob Ross, happy little tree mints. That's a semi-gag gift for my BFF. Nice place to wander around & bring some sweetness to your day.

As someone who loves small town businesses, I've promised to stop by more often and especially as I truly enjoy her scrumptious offerings!

Stopped by visiting Tenino for the first time. Kate is so wonderful. She mentioned to my family and…read moreme that she just made sourdough. We bought some and a lot of chocolate. She's so sweet. We talked for a bit. Made us feel so welcomed. We got in the car and drove home. We started munching on the bread and chocolates. Omg the sourdough is DELICIOUS!!!! It was so good. We almost ate the whole bread. We got almost one of every chocolate. Everything was delicious. My favorite is Milk Chocolate Toffee. Definitely will be coming back. Definitely add this to your next stop You won't be disappointed. Again, thank you Kate for everything you're so sweet. My 1-year-old daughter was getting a little fussy and she gave her a chocolate. It was so sweet.

Just know going in, it's not cheap but most of us shopping in there were probably tourists and how often do we get a chance to shop in this type of store. It's in Cannon Beach so I'm sure that makes it a tiny bit more expensive. I did not get any taffy but they had so many different yummy sounding flavors. You also get to watch them make some of it. We spent about $20. I'm a Dots fan so I got some watermelon flavored. Also got some little coconut almond haystacks and some mint cookie malt balls. The haystacks were ok but the malt balls were delicious. Nice minty flavor and the malt ball was nice and fresh and not hard like some I've tried. Nice little place to treat yourself while on vacation or in the area.
