IT'SUGAR - You know what it is... - Candy Stores Near Me - Santa Clara, California

What a colorful and sweet smelling store. As with most big city stores, it's pricey. If you're looking for a two pound Kit Kat or unique apex flavors, stop on by and pick up your stash. Skip this stop for any of the typical candies--the price doesn't warrant the purchase. read more

4 stars for the great location! The girl who was working the day shift today 12/16/24 is very unfriendly. She needs to have a better outlook on working at this amazing candy store in the beautiful Valley Fair Mall. The store is clean and has the best candy!! I filled up my ziplock bag full of gummy bears and ate them allllll!!! read more

I got dubai chocolate from this store for $20 and when i ate it, it was 90% chocolate. You can not taste the pistachio filling at all. I would not recommend. read more

Stopped by this spot after years of walking exercising my self control to the max ignoring the sugar craving. Well, it is going to be easy to ignore it from now on since it was not a great experience. The candy except for the retro section was not that appealing. The employee seemed bored and entirely disinterested in helping customers. Pass! read more

My daughter and her friend took two small zigged bags of mixed candies and paid $78 USD. Surprisingly expansive. My daughter wuld like to reduce some candies to save money but they were at mixed bag already. She felt it would be rude to return some. It was a very priecy experience for both me and my daughter! read more

Whatever you do, do NOT get their mystery box. Barely $10 worth of product for $30 AND more than half of it was melted and I had to throw it away. An absolute waste of money. What a ripoff read more

The person who rang me up, Nicole, was SO rude and left me not wanting to go back there. I have never had a problem at this location but she just made me not want to go back. You can't be bitter while working at a sugar store. I hope she's nicer to other customers and I just had a rare experience. read more

I'm not sure what made it acceptable for an employee to curse at a customer. She seemed very tired, and we were the only group in the store. Assuming they were about to close soon, we hurriedly picked out our items. On my way to the counter, I noticed some chocolate that caught my eye, so I briefly stepped past her to grab it. To my surprise, I heard her say, "What the f**k" right in front of me. I was shocked and uncomfortable with how I was treated. I brought my cousins here, who were visiting from overseas. When I left the store, it was 9:01 PM. I understand how tiring it can get, trust me, I've been there. But this kind of behavior crossed a line. I haven't been spoken to like that since high school. Retail is tough, but that doesn't excuse this kind of behavior. I hope management addresses this issue, as customers should never be treated this way. read more

Love taking my kids here as a treat, they love picking out the candy from containers which I've noticed a lot of candy stores don't do anymore. Great place to find gifts for anybody with a sweet tooth IT'SUGAR has a huge variety of candy and snacks you can't find in a regular grocery store. Costumer service on the other hand could be improved, the workers tend to be hostile and rude, always giving dirty looks. Overall cleanliness is great and up kept. I recommend but be aware that the staff aren't super friendly read more

It's a super fun candy store! My favorite part was the chocolates with hilarious sibling jokes printed on the wrappers--such a clever and unique touch. Perfect for a good laugh and a sweet treat! read more

Had a bad experience here. The cashier was rude -- no greeting, no thank you, nothing. It honestly felt like he didn't want any customers around and just wanted to be left alone. Definitely not the kind of service you expect. read more

What a whole bunch of shittt employees talking shit about customers. You have a sign out that says no food or drinks but yet you don't say shit to them while they walk in so what should customers assume? That it is okay for us to take drinks and food in. You're at a mall. Where food and drinks are served. Of course people will have food and drinks. Im glad my party or I didn't say shit to you guys when you guys wanted to say should I put more signs. Is it still up there. You clearly saw a lady come in with her drink and then looked at the other 2 employees just standing there talking shit about not seeing the sign. No one cares for the signs. Be better and be proactive then and stop pretending you care. What a piece of jokes you guys are. read more

We went here a few days ago. It was ok, nothing special. It's expensive place with very limited items.

I came here during a family vacation with my sister and niece to explore what San Jose malls have to offer. It my sister and I several times to find this shop as the San Jose mall is huge. Once inside you are in Candy heaven. I always wondered how they keep the candy fresh people are constantly letting air in yo grab their candy. I sampled quite a few...there wasn't a sign that said customers couldn't...but even if it did I would still sample before I load up my candy. My niece and sister were going candy crazy in the store. They had candies from different countries which I thought was cool. They had LARGE Reese cups and other huge name brand candies. I am not really a candy person these days as I am trying to cut back on my sugars. Therefore, I didn't leave the store with a bag of candy like my niece and sister. Anywho I got joy of making them happy and dealt with their sugar rush back to the hotel. Definitely, a must stop for sure if you want to go candy crazy and your kids! I enjoyed sampling and looking at all the unique candies. read more

If you like candy and sugar then this is the place for you. There are so many different types of candy it's pretty crazy. Most of it is sold by the pound and its easy to rack the price up as candy can weigh a lot. Staff is friendly and on top of things overall. Again, I don't want to spoil too much of the surprise. Just give this place a visit. read more

Such great service! Staff here were helpful, friendly and bubbly:-) When I walked passed this place , I saw this adorable Hello Kitty wearing a chick costume holding a Cup Noodles through the windows , I just had to get it. A bit pricey, $35 but it's too cute to pass it. A friendly staff told me they had a piggy version(costume ) too but got sold out. With covid , the shipments have been slow and delayed, he said. So I'm glad I got one ! There were only two left after I got it. This is such a cute store with varieties of candies, plushes and toys. One of my favorite stores at Valley Fair. read more

IT'SUGAR - Hello Kitty in chicken costume ( hood comes off ) with Cup Noodles (o^^o) - Candy Stores Near Me - Santa Clara, California

This is a great shop to come to if you're looking for candy by the pound or if you want retro sweets but to buy common items like snickers and Reese's peanut butter cups, you could just go to a grocery store for that. Every once in a while, they'll have in-store exclusive, items or themed items which are worth buying but for the most part it's just a good place to get your sweet fix. read more

Good for kids specially grandkids they will enjoy several kinds of candies. Just put some limits on what they pick. They would fill up a whole paper bag. read more

The store is cool but my gripe. Limited scoop or thongs to pick up the candy. Kinda disgusting, people making a make shift glove to pick up candy or they actually use their hands or you take one thong and containment each single bowl of candy. Whoops. read more

The staff who's working they are super mean people sorry because they never train very good as a sales person. They should learn about the customer service. Unfortunately, their manager didn't train them very well. read more

I love to bump into IT'SUGAR shops. They're always so fun, location to location. However, this one is super mediocre with a terrible layout. Whoever decided this should be a location was probably desperate for a space. Not much to offer as it's so tiny, and the line curves around into the important bits of the store, making it super annoying for both browsing customers and people ready to pay. I still bought stuff, but it was not the same experience. Staff was meh, which is also unusual. Too bad. read more

Unfortunately I can't share the enthusiasm of the other reviewers regarding It's Sugar. While doing a spot of shopping in the Mall this place immediately caught my eye and naturally seeing all the rows of candy the kid in me just couldn't resist and I just HAD to go in and have a look. They have a decent sized selection of goodies, Pez, Pop Rocks, M&M's, Jelly Belly, Jolly Rancher and Nerds to name a few. There's also bins of various candies and chocolates where you Pick and Mix your own but the quality?.. Gah! Pretty damn nasty if I'm completely honest. Very cheap ingredients (despite the price tag) and texture is either rubbery or like wax. I did spot the cutest Hello Kitty Pez dispenser ( http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/4g3vdHKdqfFbmE3bFhOKwA?select=XrFbM6jtnxZEYjjYRZMR7w ) in here though along with some fun looking candy Bra/GString combo ( http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/4g3vdHKdqfFbmE3bFhOKwA?select=VADYUgGUNJA1LVDW02FBYQ ) which are made from the same sweets as those cute elasticated necklaces you used to get as a kid. My advice? If you REALLY want to shop here stick to the packets/boxes of sweets and avoid the bins. You'll thank me later :) read more

I've been to this store a number of times and None of my visits ever stood out... Not untiL today. I came in and was greeted by a warm smile. The employee was standing right in the middle of the store and made sure to acknowledge EVERY SINGLE PERSON WHO WALKED IN. As I made my way around the store, I noticed her offering patrons samples and asking if anyone needed any help. There was another worker who stood behind the cash register and didn't bother to say hello or even fake a smile.... The typical customer service that is given here. Womp womp womp. I'm bummed that I didn't catch the nice asian girl's name but this place can thank her for the extra star!! (She may have been the person in charge this evening) ALL in aLL, this place is pretty pricey and their selection isn't as big as you would think. I'm quite sure that Sweet Factory has a Lot more candy to choose from..... BUT!! This store's modern look, bright colors, and bumping music is just so much more ENTICING. read more

Oh sugar galore?! There's so many different sweets and candies that you can't even imagine in this shop. You can get a baggie & fill them with the different variety of candies ranging from old school stuff like rock candy to chocolate stuff. Plus, they have candy themed items like necklaces & other novelties that you can get as well. I didn't end up getting anything from this store yet, but one of these days I'll prob get something. Haha... too many options to choose from. read more

I stopped by to pick up some chocolate covered gummy bears..last time I've been here was about 7 years ago or so. There were 2 girls there..none greeted their customers. I walked around to see what else I wanted.. finally decided on a couple more chocolate items. I reached for a bag and the girl told me to put on gloves first. I apologized and reached for the gloves. The girl looked at her coworker and loudly said I don't know why people walk around and then reach for bags without gloves. So I just decided to leave without purchasing anything due to the rude service. read more

Cute little novelty candy store! I like the mix of (GIANT--literally!) name brand candies and bulk candies-- theres just so much to choose from! I definitely prefer a darker chocolate and was disappointed to find that there was rarely any of that- but the selection of numerous other treats made up for that lack! The store is also a bit crowded due to the displays being a bit large. Cashier was sweet- trip overall pleasant! read more

Many creative and colorful options to choose from. Service is usually awesome and very helpful. They have such of range of candy it's amazing. They also have toys, and merchandise from other companies, not just their own. 100% recommend read more

The customer service was terrible employee was rude at the checkout and some candies were not even the real ones. One of the boxes was labeled Swedish Fish but after a friend of mine bought it it was not even the real one! The flavor was off and the candy was stale. Paying extra money for candy is crazy especially if it's not even what is advertised. read more

This is the only candy store that I know of that sells giant sized tootsie pops, nerds, sugar daddy suckers, red vines, Hershey's chocolate syrup, and the worlds largest gummy worm and gummy bear among other super sized sweets. They also have giant sized lip balms in candy flavors as well as regular sized lip balms and glosses, candy pillows, t-shirts, funny notes, magnets, and other cool items. It's located on the upper level of the mall. There are lots of bins filled with gummy candy flavors that most places don't have such as giant snake gummies which are big and really tasty. You can find both old and new candy here such as ring pops and candy purses. They also have mugs and ice cube trays shaped as castles and chill pills. The tins of mints they have are really cool. Now they sell soda in sleek tin bottles too but the selection is limited to mostly Coke products. There are even small Chinese takeout containers in various colors to put your candy in! The glosses and balms are cool looking but tasteless. I got a package of laffy taffy lip glosses and one Betty Crocker vanilla frosting lip balm and they were all flavorless. That is my only main complaint with this place. If you love candy, you'll love this store! read more

I loooovveeee candy, especially if its gummy, sour or lollipops! I always have trouble find Chupa Chup lollipops but they have them in stock here and you can choose the flavors you want instead of buying a bag of them and being stuck with flavors you don't like mixed in with your faves. There's so many different kinds of candy and novelty candy such as Harry Potter chocolates and bean bozzled jelly beans! There are also a lot of character merchandise such Hello Kitty, Boo & Pusheen! Great place if you're a candy fiend or even if you are looking for a gift for a friend, as you are not bound to the option of just buying candy here. There are a lot of other cute/cool things. read more

Love their gummies! Soft, chewy, classic gummy candies in a variety of colors and pretty much every flavor imaginable. Tried some of their regular as well as more exotic flavors: watermelon, grape, strawberry, pineapple, chocolate covered gummy bears and the chili pepper... All were good with the exception of the chili pepper - ughh! Though their gummies are sweet and soft with better quality than most gummies I've tried, they are very overpriced at $13 per pound. Other than the $$$, I did enjoy browsing through the unique candy collections they offer at the store. The mannequins dressed w/ jellies get ups were also sweet ;) read more

I love candy stores, soooooo much. It's hard to give them anything less than 4 stars because I love them so much lol, but sadly this particular location is extremely over priced. Contrary to sweet factory, they charge almost twice the amount. I still ended up getting a little bit of this and that from here, and my grand total was only about $4, which wasn't bad. But you really have to take in to account how much you are buying, because you can get seriously carried away! Other than that, I was stoked to have my gummies and chocolate. The store is pretty big (much bigger than sweet factory), so there's tons to look at. I like that they have other things besides just candy (i.e. novelty items, toys, knick-knacks, cups, etc.) They really went with a positive, colorful angle. And that's why I give them 4 stars! Good vibes at this place with the staff too. They seem to not hate their jobs, which is a plus in any retail job, since most staff seem to hate what they do and let you know it lol. They were super friendly here. read more

Lots of sweets and a great spot for the SUGAR! Valley Fair Mall has been lacking a candy/sweet shop for a long time. Now everyone can get their sugar fix. Try the huge gummy worm or the gummy bear on a stick. I love gummy candy and found both fun to snack on while strolling through the mall. You might turn a few heads when you are gnawing on a three foot gummy worm but who cares... you have a 3 foot gummy worm hanging out of your mouth! If you are brave and have room in your tummy try to eat the large gummy bear in one sitting. OMG! Your mouth will hate you but your tummy will love you. read more

How do you not walk into this store? It's colorful, lures you in with cutesy items, and actually smells wonderful once you get close enough to the goods. I was immediately drawn to the back wall where they have special treats from Japan like exotic Pocky and KitKat flavors and even the Crave Japan box that has a surprise assortment of tasty snacks from Japan. They had a special Sour Patch Kids section that had giant boxes, special edition ones, and even Funkos of the different characters. Now I'm not going to lie there was a brief moment where I considered if it was edible but upon further inspection it is definitely just a Funko Pop. The middle of the store has a bunch of self-serve containers where you can pick and choose different candy. There's a huge selection and they seem to have a deep variety of gummy bears. The only thing is that kids love a good candy store and when they see candy they kind of go crazy. There were a lot of hands grabbing straight from the bins so I would recommend getting prepackaged goods if you're squeamish about that. One other thing I love to check out is what Pusheens they have in season. This time they had extra large plain Pusheens, the normal size mermaid tail Pusheen, and some little key chain ones as well. One of them was holding a chip bag that actually crinkled like a real chip bag. We were asked if we needed help as we were browsing and greeted as we were coming and leaving so the employees were definitely attentive. read more

Alright, I'm not even gonna sugar coat it. This place is pretty expensive! It's Sugar has a wide variety of candies and sweets like rock candies, nerds, hersheys, and chocolate covered ANYTHING!!! hah! I rarely come here but when I do it's because I'm craving chocolate covered gummy bears! This is a perfect place if you don't mind spending a little bit more cash money on a bag of different candies & sweets. Who doesn't like variety?!?! If you're looking for giant size candy It's sugar has that too! I don't know many people who would actually buy those gigantic candies, but they're nice to look at I guess! Besides candy, they also have other items here like shirts, bags, accessories with cartoon characters on them such as HK, Angry Birds, and etc..... read more

IT'SUGAR - Bag of goodies! - Candy Stores Near Me - Santa Clara, California

It's sugar has great visual displays and a lot of variety. You can find all sorts of candy like supersized Nerds to classic M&Ms. The thing that bothered me the most was that there were 3 employees working at the time of my visit and not one of them greeted me during the 15 minutes I was there. Also, as a warning to those who have young children. There are some 'erotic' themed items like edible underwear for both men and women that were easily seen by my 5-year old who quickly asked " Daddy, what are these?", candy cigarettes and hand sanitizers with erotic messages on the label to name a few. If you find these items offensive, then make sure your children don't visit the back corner area by the coke fridge. Aside from that, a nice candy store that can tempt even the mildest sweet tooth. read more
