It's local, fresh and delicious. They also have an assortment of candy throughout the store that's fun to browse and pick. We brought home a couple of bags and everything was soft and super fresh. We will definitely be back this summer (sigh for our summer bods)! The only feedback I'd give is that they should stay open later during Fri-Sun to catch the weekend crowds looking for something sweet after dinner.

It's like a little slice of Willy Wonka in the Annapolis Mall. Emphasis on "LITTLE" store, though. While it's not a kiosk, it's quite narrow in parts. It can make navigating tricky, especially if there are more than a handful of customers in there. Still, the décor is wall-to-wall candy, mostly self-service by-the-pound options. The great thing about this setup is you get to pick what YOU like. And there is a great variety to satisfy most sweet tooths! The price... it is what it is. While I won't say it's prohibitively expensive, it's not "in-expensive." They have a rewards program, though, and my kid did get a free rock candy stick because of it. Maybe not the best value, but I will say that a lot of their items are a bit boutique. That's not a complaint, just an observation. They also have a decent selection of unique and fun beverages, such as "Duff Beer" and Aggretsuko energy drinks. A variety of ramune "marble" beverages, too, flavors I'd never seen in person before! It's a nice sweet distraction or destination in the otherwise cookie cutter Mall. We love stopping in here every time we're in the vicinity. If nothing else, the nostalgic feels alone are worth the visit!

As soon as I…read morewalked in through the door I felt as though I were five years old again, walking into my first penny candy store. I found myself surrounded with sights and sounds that brought out my inner sugar crazed youth; it even made me giddy with excitement. I love the sounds of a sno-cone being made! The walls are covered with shelves of every sugary delight you can imagine. There is such a wide variety and assortment of different flavors; everyone is sure to find something to satisfy their cravings. I'm especially a big fan of the Jelly Belly jelly bean display that awaits my next visit. There's an assortment of truffles and other chocolates found in a glass case behind the cash register. I would've tried them all however, I was afraid I would gain 50 pounds before even walking out the door. The artwork on the wall adds to the flair of this candy shop. I almost forgot to mention the ice cream case. With a wide variety of flavors everyone is sure to find something that will appeal to their sweet tooth. If you're not in the mood for a cone, they offer a prefix case of ice cream. They even have fresh store made candy and caramel apples. I'm going back for the frozen chocolate banana. They even have sugar-free options available in the ice cream and chocolates. This is going to be a place I've got to frequent more often. Oh, and one of my personal favorites the 3 foot pixi stix! I'm certain, as this business grows so will the selection to tempt my taste buds!

During one of my walks around National Harbor to get the lay of the land, I noticed IT'SUGAR and it…read moreimmediately piqued my interest. I like candy - especially fruity and chewy varieties. That, combined with the fact that candy stores seem to be having a moment, put me in a position to check this place out. So before we headed out to the train station, we made a quick stop here. IT'SUGAR is a chain/franchise, with multiple locations across the country. In my perspective, this store is large with a good selection. They have packaged brands that we all know, plus the option to buy in bulk or in takeaway packages. I saw most of the usual suspects, as well as brands I didn't recognize as well as a large selection of Swedish candy which is currently trending. You can by bulk candy either by weight or volume; I decided to go the latter and choose one of their containers that can be filled as much as possible as long as the lid closed. I mostly stuck to the fruity and chewy candies which were quite good. It wasn't busy at all when we were there, so checkout was super fast. Overall, I was impressed with IT'SUGAR - really good variety and a place I would seek out for some sweets.

This one was smaller, but still packed with fun. The kids absolutely loved it--they went crazy over all the candy options! Now let's talk about the price...because baby, candy added up QUICK. For three kids and my little bit of Swedish fish, I spent $62, which is a bit much for candy in my opinion. But hey, it was spring break, and they had a great time, so I let it slide. The associate working there was very patient with the kids,--it was a lot going on with all that excitement and sugar overload! I didn't grab any pictures, but overall it was a fun stop and a great treat for the kids. Rating: 4/5

So glad they still had an impressively wide selection at the end of the festival as many venders ran out. The Giant Peanut Butter Cup is very decadent with rich dark chocolate and creamy peanut butter. Just a couple of bites was more than satisfying and paced myself and able to devour the cup over a few days. The Dark Chocolate Covered Mint Oreo was delicious and my pick over the Dark Chocolate Covered Oreo, which didn't taste that different from a normal Oreo. Of the truffles, the Raspberry and Dark Chocolate Ganache were my favorites. The Hazelnut truffle was fun to try and reminded me of a Ferraro Rocher hazelnut truffles. I miss seeing Capital Candy Jar at the farmer's markets as many have shut down and excited to see them at more festivals and events post pandemic. Looking forward to seeing them again and coming back for more delicious sweet treats!

Lots of unique candies, Washington landmark Oreos, political party Oreos, ice cream and more. I snagged a few things to send my family for Christmas and can't wait for them to receive them!

I was looking primarily for holiday things this time, and they had several trees full of ornaments, holiday housewares, shelf decorations, and the like. They also stock children's books, T-shirts and other local and Bay-themed souvenirs. I purchased a Maryland tin, a gift bag, & some snowflake ornaments. They also have some unique craft items I have not seen elsewhere, like bowl cozies (for when you heat a bowl in the microwave) and snap bags to tuck in your bag or purse. All of the prices are very reasonable. Check it out, and buy local.
