    Quirky, colorful and sweet as can be. This tiny candy shop is a gem and the pretty hard candies make excellent gifts.

    Absolutely loved Torrons Vicens! There were so many different types of torron (nougats) and…read morechocolates and they let me sample lots of them. The young ladies handing out the samples were friendly and so generous with the samples; they kept urging me to try different ones and, believe me, I didn't need much encouragement! I love nougat! I love the softer nougats with almonds best, but I also had some with pistachios and fruits. The best was the one with almonds and chocolate! The bars come in different sizes, so if you want quick and easy-to-handle souvenirs to take home, this might be it. I think the smaller bars were 3.95 Euros while the larger bars were 9.95 Euros. My friend purchased a large box of the round ones before she realized they had smaller boxes and they graciously allowed her to exchange her purchase. Service was very quick and friendly. Wish there was a shop like this near my home; I'd be there quite often!!

    Items tasted: Hard Torron, Traditional Torron…read moreWhite Chocolate Pistachio, Chocolate Hazelnut Gema Cremada Albert Adria Natura - Gin & Tonic, Olive Oil and Dark Chocolate, Yuzu Featuring several locations around the Globe, without doubt a more 'tourist friendly' place than Turrones Ramos in Valencia, it was after a visit to Sagrada Família Basilica that a stop was made at Torrons Vicens, the staff unequivocally friendly with plenty of samples available including Chocolates made in collaboration with Michelin-starred Chef Albert Adria. Originally founded in 1775 and still family owned, years of fame and intelligent investing allowing the company to expand into several International markets and styles of Nougat and Chocolate including a Sugar-Free line said to be indistinguishable from the real thing, it was just after 15h00 that the lengthy store on Carrer Provença was entered, a greeter at the door quickly leading patrons to a serving dish of four chopped treats, both the White Chocolate and Pistachio Block as well as Dark Chocolate and Hazelnut sort of like American Holiday "Bark" and pleasant enough while the hard and moist Torron were both very sweet, actually quite a bit moreso than Ramos or La Turronería Iváñez in Bilbao. Quite the operation, the company now with nearly three dozen stores including a Turron Museum outside of Lleida that many have said to be worth the drive, it was walking deeper into the space that guests found themselves tempted by Bars, Tablets and Chocolate Bon-Bons, a trio of samples from the ElBarri collection all delightful with the Gin & Tonic particularly well crafted and the Olive Oil filled version simple and clean while exaggerating the fruity flavors of the Cocoa. Picking up some gifts for others plus a few small bars for later it was finally en route to the register that eyes fell upon a package titled Gema Cremada, the Candy that is apparently quite popular around holidays without a doubt the most impressive thing tasted at Vicens with a creamy body made from Marzipan and Sugar beneath a brûléed exterior that helps to mellow the sweetness while also adding a remarkable texture that compelled the purchase of a weighty €7 package for the road.

    The concept is... I want to say adorable, but it's also sort of creepy. The store is supposed to…read morelook like a pharmacy and the "happy pills" are just various candies that are available at any candy store in the U.S. So when you come in here, you pick up an empty "pill bottle" and fill it up with as many candies as you can. If I remember correctly, the candies are priced by the size of the bottle and not the weight (I just remember my aunt pressuring me to fill up my bottle... and she kept telling me she could see gaps between the candies and urged me to cram more candy into the bottle). The candies are organized by color... so there will be sections of red, blue, green, etc. candies. I remember getting a lot of gummy candies and candy-coated chocolates. This was also the first time I tried blue gummy sharks (and I loved them!). I also got many strawberry puffs and other delicious candies. When it was time to pay for the candy, the cashier placed a sticker to seal the bottle and put the bottle in a bag. The place was sort of small and the store narrow, so it was a bit hard to move around as it was crowded. Other than that, I enjoyed the Happy Pills experience!

    Super cute concept for a candy store!! And the candy was delicious. Reasonable prices! You got to…read morefill your pill bottle with whatever candies you liked and then pick the sticker to go on the outside. I think it would be cool if you had the option to do a glass candy container instead of a plastic one, but nonetheless it's still reusable!! Would come back for sure!!

    I've been an expat since 2012, so I have looked in all corners of the EU for such places. When I'm…read morein the mood for American snacks and my care packages haven't arrived, I go to American shops for a quick fix. The shop is pretty standard like most that I've seen in the countries I've visited/lived. This place is quite small though and can get a bit crowded, which is not good. Especially with a pandemic. The number of people allowed inside should be restricted by a lot more. I don't want to brush against someone just to get by. Also, the variety here may not be vast, but they usually have what I'm after. Hot Cheetos, white cheddar Cheez-It, Kraft mac & cheese, etc. If they don't have something, I ask and they might be able to order it. The cereal selection is great! Yes, prices are on the higher end, but it is what it is. You aren't doing daily or weekly grocery shopping here. Come for a splurge on treats you know and love, but don't assume it will be the same as a store in the USA. It's unreasonable to expect that. Take into account the import fees and shipping costs. This little gem of a place is a bit of comfort for people like me that are missing home and I'm glad to have it around.

    Happy to have found this store. Wish they had a larger peanut butter, but the price would probably…read morekeep people from buying it. They even have sour cream here which I have not been able to find anywhere in Barcelona!! Kids got their candy fix, there is cake mix, frosting, mustard, popcorn, even tortillas...sooooo many things!! We've been twice and I'm sure we will keep going back. The store is small, but has so much!!
