    La Huerta Candy is a great place to bring kids or even a really big kid like myself. There's so many different kind of options. If you are looking for some classic Mexican candy. They've got you covered. they have all different flavor profiles from salty, sweet, sour and spicy. The gentleman working the counter was very friendly and helpful. He was also very patient with us trying to decide what we wanted. I literally felt like a "fat kid in a candy shop" The options were limitless. I tried some of the dried mangos, other fruit and gummies covered in the Mexican chili flavor. I enjoyed some and others not so much. They had some really cool gummies with cool subject matter like gummy dinosaurs. I really wanted to get my son the gummy green army men

    Delicious candy!! I tried their dehydrated pineapple rings cover in chili powder, watermelon gummies in chili powder and gummy worms. They sell candy by the pound. You can mix and match and pick from a wide variety. The also sell mixed nuts and dehydrated fruit. Service was prompt and the staff takes care of you quickly. They accept cards payment and cash.

    Snapped this while waiting for my order.

    Best selection of various nuts and candies ever. The cashews are next level, and the candy is awesome. The customer service is also a breath of fresh air in a big city and a crowded Grand Central Market. I highly recommend stopping by here for candies and nuts if you're strolling through Grand Central Market.

    Me and my boyfriend love coming here so much! Ana is the best and always welcomes us in the best ways!! The candy is so good and worth the money!! And they have a version of the sour gushers that are so good!! Definitely worth stopping by and trying out if you're in the area

    Custom spicy snack mix!

    When you come back from Mexico and are majorly jonesing for crunchy spicy things. Then you remember LA is Mexico dammit you can find this here! Tahdah! One block from work is this gem! Got my botana! Maiz garbanzo y habas.

    I will always return for the chili gushers!!! They are literally the most perfectly tasting balanced chili mix I've ever tried. Customer service is top notch, he allows you to sample whatever you'd like, even the fresh mango pickled in chamoy which was BOMB!! They also sell chamoy pickle kits, I had NO IDEA. Get them before they're gone!! The place itself is a very cool booth it has all the candies displayed it's very colorful and eye-catching. I love love love all their candies there's a HUGE variety. Definitely coming back for more, as always!

    Blueberry sour belt with Chile

    Went to Grand Central Market to get out the house and came across La Huerta Candy. I'm going to be honest I'm not really a sweets type of person but when I tasted these blueberry sour belts in Chile it brought back childhood memories of eating the sour belts in school and going to my grandmas for Chile candy. For them to mix the sweet and sour with Chile is a out of this world experience and not one over powers the other. It's a perfect balance of both to the point I had to stop myself from eating the whole half a pound haha I would highly recommend checking this place out if you live sweet and spicy.

    Mango and strawberry tajin belts!

    I love this place! So many sweet treats to choose from, and I love that they have so many spicy options, all very reasonably priced. I would definitely recommend this place as a stop at grand central!

    Where do I even start? The chamoy watermelon and peach rings are so BOMB. Literal crack. But also the service is so good. 10/10 would recommend.

    Omg I've been meaning to go to Fugetsu-Do since forever and finally made it out to Little Tokyo…read more The shop itself is pretty small and has the traditional mom & pop feel to it, and everyone was very friendly. Shoutout to the girl working that Saturday who answered all my questions about the different filled mochi flavors. They have a pretty decent assortment of Japanese snacks and candies, but of course come for the freshly made mochi. The texture is soooo soft and chewy unlikely the weird powdery texture of many other store bought mochi. My favorite was definitely the ichigo daifuku, although I do wish it came with a whole strawberry instead of just a small piece because the bite with strawberry was AMAZING. Second favorite is the peanut butter mochi and... I've already gone back just for those. They also sell plain komochi that you can eat fresh the same day or freeze and use later for cooking. Annnd I got some kinako mochi last weekend cause I keep going back lol.

    order: 6 piece custom mochi set…read more highlights: - this mochi is consistently chewy and fresh every time I visit little tokyo! - hands down a must visit! - I personally like the plain rainbow mochi as well as the ones with the small flowers on them - not too sweet and great texture cons: - there is a minimum spend of $20 to use card here - they can sell out on their popular mochis when they're busy overall: would visit every time I am in the area!

    Galco's will forever hold a special place in my heart…read more This is the OG grocery store we would walk to in the early 80"s. When they had penny candy machines, a big taxidermy deer head and the kindest owner. He once gave me and my sibling a big paper lunch bag full of candies! I love seeing the original check out stand, the little upper office where the owner would stand and the old fridge area where it once held fruits and veggies now old school candy bars. If you grew up in highland park in the 80s, this was the local market. How I miss those days! Highland Park is so different now! Btw Galco's makes some of the best sandwiches! Also if anyone knows where to get Stoney Tangawizi please let me know!

    First: I used to love this place. As a fellow small biz…read moreowner nearby, I supported and promoted this place as one of the long standing coolest stores on the Eastside. It has such a selection of candy from your childhood, and for kids, random unique gifts to keep them busy. but yesterday...all that flew out the window. I approached the sandwich counter and asked the person working (an angry woman apparently) what her favorite sandwiches are. After she took a minute to complain about how she had been making sandwiches all day and her brain is fried and she didn't really have any recommendations for me (and was seemingly annoyed at me even asking) she looked at the clock and advised that I was 2 minutes too late to order a hot sandwich. literally the 2 minutes she took to complain about her job cost me the sandwich. now, if it was my shop and a nice family came in and asked me my opinion on something and I took a minute or two to say the things that she said I would give them a sandwich and make that sandwich be the last sandwich of the day, but instead apparently my money wasn't green enough for her. She shut it down and two minutes later was out the door. she was rude, and honestly it just seemed that she didn't give an F. Today I called the store to speak with the owner and the person who answered the phone gave me the runaround. it was clear that either the workers didn't want to connect me with the owner or the owner doesn't want to hear the complaint. this place has gone downhill.
