    We enjoy Sweets and I am kinda surprised by the low 3.4 star rating as of writing this. So here's…read morean updated rundown of the store as of my experience 3 days ago: Good assortment of dark and milk lollies, nonpareils, and other confections (including pre packed truffle boxes) you could easily pick up, pay, and go. The truffle case was well stocked aside from their pumpkin spice truffle :( The fudge case as also well stocked. My personal favorites here are: Gourmet Dark Fudge Sea Salt Caramel Fudge Rocky Road Fudge Nut Fudge All the turtles The lavendar, cognac, pumpkin spice, and Irish cream truffles Nonpareils Caramel Apple This is how I see Sweets. It's definitely about Sees candy plus FUDGE. There are a few other chocolate shops that have a more gourmet selection and hit a bit better, but Sweets is for sure a sold 4 stars. It's a small space that can get cramped (if they ask you to wait outside, it's usually because theyve met fire code capacity fyi) but they do a great job giving people one on one service. Don't let the 3.4 star rating for you, you will get some good confections here :-)

    Cute local shop with quality treats! Their fudge is the best, with the perfect buttery texture and…read morepacked with chocolate . I recently tried their chocolate caramel covered apple, ended up eating it a day after I bought it and it was still fresh (kept in fridge beforehand). They always have free samples of their chocolate fudge to try before you buy, and the staff and very friendly and helpful. If you are walking around downtown Truckee definitely grab a treat here!

    This is my second visit at Bouchée confections, and it was still as amazing as I remembered…read more This time, I took my mom for high tea and she loved it. She is gluten free and was impressed at how good all the gluten free items were, and how they were able to keep an extremely similar menu even. She only had one item that was completely different than what I received (a cheesecake instead of a fruit tart). You can really tell that they work hard to ensure the gluten free menu is as amazing as the non gluten free one. Everything was absolutely delicious, including the bottomless tea. I think the peach cardamom scone was my favorite today! I was happy that they could make my tea iced as it was a really hot summer day. The server was amazing, she was attentive and friendly. The place settings were super cute and I felt transported to England. I am definitely going to come back a third time with some friends! I love that the menu changes every month so you always have something new to try! Don't forget to make reservations!

    I have been hearing about Bouchėe Confections and their monthly teas for a while and their June tea…read moredid not disappoint. The staff was friendly, professional, and helpful as this was our 1st tea time. The shop is bright and airy but it was a a bit smaller than I expected. The tea setting was beautifully done but our table was extremely small which made teatime challenging at times. During the teas each person gets their own pot of unlimited tea. We did the Jasmine Glow tea and the Strawberry Chocolate Pu'erh. The teas were amazingly delicious! They were so good that we bought some to bring home. The bites were flavorful, just the right size, and complemented each other beautifully. You could taste the love and care that went into each one of the items. They also offer 2 speciality adult beverages each month. The Prosecco float was my favorite! This was a wonderful and delicious experience. We can't wait for next month's tea!

    Well, I was back in the area, and I still wanted to try that jalapeño brittle that I had heard…read moreabout. I called them, and they said yes, they do carry it. I was headed for Carson City, so I swung by. While I was there, I also got some of their amazing chocolates again. The lady was very nice, same as last time, and I asked for a sample of the jalapeño brittle. I took a bite, and. *WOW......* that stuff is "jalapeño business." :). It definitely has a kick to it. It's on the upper end of what I like for spicy, but I really enjoyed it a lot. The heat takes a couple of seconds to kick in, and then The sweetness of the brittle helps temper it a bit. I bought a bag, which should last me for quite a while, but when I'm ready for another, hopefully they will still carry it. Definitely worth trying. Thank you

They offer a huge selection of candies to choose from, also fudge and ice creams. Whenever I'm out and spot a jar of honey I must purchase it!? So yes, I got a jar of their local raw honey, it's divine! We were given multiple free samples, because who turns down free chocolate;) They were so kind and answered all of our questions. Everything we tried was so so good! The dark chocolate sea salt caramels behind the glass were my personal favorite!! Their peanut butter cups are made in house, so good! Even the malt balls were bomb! I'm not even a malt ball kind of gal but they are triple dipped in dark chocolate and oh so delightful! We bought our weight in chocolate today, I'm not even a little bit ashamed of it. Even though this business is a bit out of the way from Reno, we had such a wonderful experience we will absolutely be returning for more chocolate! I'm sad I've waited so long before trying this place.
