I got so many wonderful Christmas gifts for others and also a lot of Cadbury chocolate for myself! They have cute candles, mugs, some seasonal items and much more. I even got a cat toy that my cat is obsessed with! The snack selection is excellent and full of chocolate, chips(or crisps), and even some frozen items to take home. The phone booth outside can also make for the cutest photo opp! The staff is also very friendly! If you are an England lover like me you will definitely love this little shop!

Every candy here is curated from all over the world. You can find amazing Swedish candies to Italian hard candies. Everything is so organized and so fun to look at! It was so fun to ask questions about where all the candy comes from and even try a piece to see what to get! You can scoop your own bag and feel all the nostalgia or buy a prepared bag or individual pieces. There is so much to choose from it can definitely be overwhelming but the woman at the counter was so patient with us and gave us some really awesome suggestions! My daughter loved their play station and it was a serious relief she was occupied with that so I could focus on finding some goodies for the fam. We opted for a variety of their sour Swedish candy and a bag of Italian hard candies. We even got this gigantic gummy worm and my daughter was just mesmerized at us pulling it out of the container! Though it's definitely pricey you are getting high quality candy from all over the world. This shop is incredibly unique. You do get a discount if you shop at their bakery first so definitely do that because I'm telling you are about to spend a lot because everything is just so good! Definitely will be here again!

BouNom Emporium is a small candy shop, offering candy from around the world from Sweden, UK, Spain, and more. There is an awesome variety of gummy candy that you can scoop into your own bag. Raspberry Lemonade Skulls, Watermelon Gummy Sharks, Pineapple Grapefruit Rings, and other fun flavors and shapes. If you love Peach Rings, you would literally be a kid in a candy store here. My husband likes this kind of gummy candy and hand picked a few different types for him to try. Since I visited around Halloween, there were a lot of fun Halloween shapes like vampire teeth and candy corn. I was also really excited to find the Sakura Matcha Pocky. They also had some of my favorite Kit Kats too. This place is truly unique and I haven't been to another candy shop like it. I loved the fact that they weren't wall to wall full of candy because it gets overwhelming. I highly recommend stopping by if you are in the Avon ares.

I went to Thorncrest Farm today based on the website and previous reviews, expecting the advertised…read more"Meet Our Girls" experience -- an opportunity to meet the cows, learn about them, and possibly feed them. Unfortunately, that was not the experience we had. We were able to see the cows, but only Beauty was in a pen close to the opening. There was another cow nearby with no name or information posted. There was no one in the barn area to talk with us, answer questions, introduce us to the cows, or tell us anything about them. We went into the chocolate shop specifically to ask about the "Meet Our Girls" experience. The young woman working at the front was very nice and did her best to help, but she didn't know much about the cows. She was able to tell us that one of the cows provides the milk used for the caramels and that milk from a mixture of the cows is used to make the chocolate. That was disappointing because it was very different from the experience we believed was being promoted on the website and described in reviews. If you grew up in Connecticut around farms, simply seeing cows in a barn isn't really a "unique experience." What would have made Thorncrest unique was actually getting to meet the girls, learn their names and personalities, hear about the different cows and their milk, and have someone there who could answer questions. We did buy the chocolate, and it is DELICIOUS! I would absolutely recommend stopping for the chocolate. I just wish the "Meet Our Girls" experience had lived up to what was advertised. Based on our visit, I would go knowing that the unique experience is really the chocolate shop -- not necessarily meeting the girls.

I used to love coming to the store, but it has changed recently…read more I was excited to come to the store to grab some candy, but upon walking in the store, I noticed all of the candy was already separated into little baggies You aren't able to pick and choose the different varieties, which makes it pretty pricey for this choice of candy 2.99 and up for a majority of candies minus the already prepackaged candy's like Starburst I still ended up getting some candy, $20 for a few varieties of candy is a little steep though

Candy Works is a specialty candy and confectionary shop that opened in Clinton, Connecticut in June…read more2020. It was founded by sisters Michele Riccio and Christine Gazzillo, with assistance from their parents Clement & Marie Gazzillo. The two sisters come from a family with experience in the restaurant business; their father Clement is a longtime restaurateur and a current partner at Petrillo's Pizza Pub & Grill in Madison. Michele works as a paraprofessional for the public school system while Christine is a registered dental hygienist. When a candy store that had previously been a location of the Fuzziwig's Candy Factory chain went up for sale, the sisters' father encouraged them to purchase it and go into business together. Clem had always dreamed of having a business where the whole family would be involved. Located in the lower level of Clinton Premium Outlets (aka Clinton Crossing), Candy Works specializes in carrying a wide selection of candy bars, nostalgic candies, old-fashioned glass-bottled sodas, freshly baked goods, and even novelty gifts. Even the sisters' mother Marie helps out with making the freshly baked goods. I recently stopped at Candy Works with my two young sons. I had previously visited many years ago when it was still Fuzziwig's Candy Factory. The set-up of the store is essentially the same, but the Gazzillo family put their own spin on things. The interior was loaded with every conceivable candy variety that you could think of: chocolate bars, jelly beans, gummies, hard candies, gum, fudge, lollipops, taffy, etc. Many of the candies were ones that I haven't seen, or even thought about, in many years. They also had quite a few novelty and gag gifts. I told my two sons that they could pick out any candy that they wanted. You want to know what they both picked out? Ice cream.... doughwiches to be exact. Oh brother; they crack me up. I however decided to pick out a nice mix of candy bars for myself, including "Zagnut", "Oh Henry!", "Abba-Zaba", "Chunky", and a "Cannoli Bar". These will all come in handy on future trips to the movie theater. Whether you're looking for your favorite candy bar, hard candies to make "goodie bags", a funny gag gift, or a nostalgic candy that you haven't seen since your childhood, then you need to make a trip to Candy Works!

I got some whole wheat crackers coated in dark chocolate for $5.00. These are very good, a nice light snack. I also got Christmas pudding off the clearance table, I thought would be tops $3.00, it was $7.00. It's the size of a tiny can of cat food. It had to be microwaved. It wasn't very good. Dispite that, this store is adorable. If you ever travel to the UK, and forget to get a gift for someone, this store is a great safety net. The owner was a pleasure to chat with.

I specifically came in to get my Chinese acupuncturists (I see 2) Chinese New Year presents. I looked down in one of the baskets in front of the counter and found gold chocolate coins. I purchased an even (must be even and not including the #4 according to Chinese tradition) number of the coins and had the friendly Sweetie's employee wrap them up for me. Red is a lucky color for people who are Chinese. Especially with gold. I purchased 2 small boxes of the gold coins in boxes for under $20! Sweetie's is a fun sweet store to shop in. There is something for everyone, even if they don't eat candy. There are cards, mugs and other fun items. Highly recommend!
