Had a great time here with my husband and three small children. This quaint little operation is…read morelocated in a small garage. While it might be short on space, there is much to see - especially the day we went. The wood-fired evaporator was boiling down the sap they had gathered from local maples from the day before. Such a cozy and delightful aroma! (My skin is glowing from the complimentary maple steam facial.) Plenty of local flavor to be had with the patient folks who own and run the place. Tours of their very small operation are free...as are the tastes of their maple cream and maple kettle corn. Ideal sap season occurs with the warmer days of winter's thaw which means lots of wondrous mud. So leave your fancy pants (and shoes) at home. Fyi -no restrooms on the premises so stop at the rest stop up the street. Reasonable prices for syrup and candies. A sweet adventure!

Located across from Starbucks and Cedars Steakhouse at Foxwoods Resort Casino this little candy…read moreshop opened during Labor Day Weekend this year (2014) as part of the casinos retail concourse face lift. While small, this place really packs a punch with it's charm and variety of offerings. The staff tries to great everyone who comes in and the decor is very colorful/whimsical featuring a chandelier that looks like it's made of different colors of rock candy and chocolate sculptures. There seems to be a few different sections...Jelly Belly, M&Ms, retro candy, seasonal stuff, jewelry, gummies, pillows (some scented!), stationary, bacon themed stuff (wha?), loose individually wrapped candy you can buy by the pound (reasonable at $7.95 and since it's wrapped you can put some back if you think you are spending too much), and a bakery case that holds really fancy cupcakes and Cronuts (croissant donuts). For being in the casino the prices are really reasonable on most things and downright cheap on other things (you can get a lolly pop for 25 cents or a huge pixy stick for 75 cents). The things that run a premium on price seems to be the jewelry, a few of the stuffed animals, and the cupcakes/cronuts. That said they offer discounts for veterans, tribal members, and certain players cards (King, Ace, Royal) and take players points. I got a seasonal set of jelly bellys that had eggnog and candy cane flavors that were great and a selection of cupcakes and cronuts to try with my friends. If you want to splurge I TOTALLY recommend a pumpkin spice cronut (although Cinnamon Sugar and Maple Pecan were awesome too). SOOO GOOD...while I didn't get a ton of pumpkin flavor, I got that melt on your tongue nutmeggy cinnamon sweetness that was just amazing. The Cookies & Cream, Salted Caramel, and S'more cupcakes were REALLY good too. Very rich though.. glass of milk or coffee is definitely a must nearby. There is a lot of icing/filling to cake ratio (which I enjoy) and they are very pretty so I definitely feel like I'm getting a special treat for the price. Overall I say take a quick cruise through to see if they have anything to interest you (or samples they do from time to time) and then you'll know where to go to get a fairly decent priced sweet treat to sit with you at your table/slot machine/during a show/or after dinner.

It's one of those shops that is just genuinely fun to walk around in, whether you're a kid or just a nostalgic adult. They have a massive selection...everything from the classic candies you loved as a kid to newer treats and even Sanrio/Hello Kitty items as well as imported Kit Kats etc. The novelty gift section is always entertaining to browse, I found a snippy plushie. the setup here was clean and well maintained. Pro-tip: It can get a little pricey if you aren't careful, so keep an eye on your bag weight! Overall, it's a high-energy, "giddy with joy" kind of spot that's worth a stop for the vibes alone.
