    My brother ordered this for me while I was on the hunt for super sour candies to try. This one was advertised as the sourest of them all. Unfortunately, I didn't find it sour at all. Don't get me wrong--the candy was absolutely delicious, but it didn't live up to the sour hype. Honestly, a Warhead is way more sour than this. #GratuityAdded #sourcandy #sweettooth #candy #sourornot #keeppounding #charlottefoodguide #AnsonCounty #HerculesCandyCo #tiktokshop #NYECLT #NewYearCharlotte #cltfoodies #capricornseason

    Ribbon candy!

    Hercules Hercules, candy please! This is an old school candy shop in East Syracuse which produces chocolate and sugar candy. They reliably stock house made ribbon candy, hard sugar candies of various types, LOTS of chocolate- many of them molded but also chocolate bark, sponge candy, nut clusters, etc. Hercules also carries options for vegans, such as chocolate "spoons" which are a lovely little option to have. My favorite thing about Hercules is the window in the shop you can look through to see them producing their products. There's a fun map next to it where they have pins with all of their visitors from the States and then the world. Parking- for cars there is a small lot and spots directly in front. There isn't a bike rack but I've locked up to a sign near the road. The candy shop is on a bus route.

    I saw them on Tik Tok and I just had to make my way over here. They have parking out front and some to left and right of the store. When you walk in it smells soo amazing and everyone was so welcoming. It was cool to see them making the candies in the back too! I watched so many videos of them making their ribbon candy so I had to get some. I was even more excited to see chocolate covered gummy bears which are my absolute favorite! I was able to sample the strawberry lemonade candies and they mentioned working on some sour candies too. You can go online and sign up for notifications for when certain candies are ready at the store. I'll definitely be back for more!

    Ordered online - made stupid mistake and contacted customer service. Not only did they reply quickly they ensured the chocolate would not melt in the terrible heat of ARIZONA. Shout out to Terry for making this happen! The candy was amazing. The fillings in the fluffer nutter bar was beyond your basic Reese's. The smores bark used REAL marshmallows - no artificial taste. AND there hard candy (which I did have doubts about) is truly THAT GREAT.

    Cute small business with a lot of charm. I had to stop here since they had a special for Matcha. I…read moream obsessed with matcha and it's hard to find soft serve around Syracuse. The staff was very nice and gave quick instructions to direct us around the store which had a bit of a different layout. We went on no weigh Wednesday, which here it has 3 different sizes for that. There were a decent amount of froyo options, but notably only one sugar free option so it was a bit limited for my partner. There weren't as many toppings as other froyo places in the area as well. The back area has a bunch of free to play arcade games and a fun vibe, with a lit up netted ceiling.

    My friend hosted a birthday party at Luv Handlz…read more The party room was a sensory-friendly space, dark but cozy with low lighting, lots of soft colored lights, and low sound levels. The whole vibe felt relaxed, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed for all kids to enjoy. The staff was incredibly patient, and you can tell they truly care about creating an inclusive environment. As a parent, that meant everything. The kids had the best time swirling their own froyo, adding toppings, enjoying the cookie cake, and playing the free arcade games. It kept everyone entertained without being overwhelming. The unlimited photo booth prints were such a fun touch and made the day even more memorable. We celebrate neurodiversity, and Luv Handlz does too. The space makes every child feel seen, supported, and able to have fun comfortably. Parking can be a bit limited, but there's street parking and an additional lot across the street behind Chadwick's. Whether you're hosting a birthday, grabbing pizza and froyo with friends, or just looking for an easy afternoon treat, this is such a great spot. Fun, simple, inclusive, and genuinely welcoming. Highly recommend!
