My personal favorites are the Raspberry Puckers and the Marshmallow Mushrooms. Let me warn you now, the Raspberry Puckers are S-O-U-R and that's precisely why I love them so much. You have been warned! You're going to love the Marshmallow Mushrooms if you're a fan of Peeps or are just a texture person. It has the greatest chew! If you'd like to sample anything- just ask! The staff here is so friendly :)

Every single time I visit my bestie in NYC, stopping by Economy Candy on the Lower East Side is an…read moreabsolute non-negotiable tradition. We've been coming here together for years, and it honestly never gets old. The history alone is incredible. It started all the way back in 1937 during the Great Depression as a shoe repair shop with a little candy pushcart outside, and it's still run by the same family today. The second you step inside, you are hit with this amazing wall of pure chocolate and sugar nostalgia. They have absolutely everything packed floor-to-ceiling, from retro candies you haven't seen since you were a kid to massive bulk bins and rare international imports. It is loud, chaotic, packed, and easily my absolute favorite spot in the city. You literally cannot leave empty-handed!

((4.5 stars)) if…read moreCandyland the game was a place, it would be Economy Candy except everything is not made of candy and of course, you have to pay. the store is clean, fairly large, and well-organized. BUT it feels much smaller because the Economy Candy is often superbusy, filled with tourists and locals alike. the shelves are filled with candy, chocolates, snack foods, confections, and more from floor to ceiling,. great place to find unique candy items as well as to just browse and discover new ones. don't sleep on the loose candy area in the front( that's charged by weight)--lots of variety from Reese's mini buttercups to laffy taffy. the staff, in general, can be helpful but they seem hit or miss in terms of presenting a friendly demeanor. beyond that, this store is unique to the Lower East Side if not all of NYC--worth at least one visit.
