    My favorite online candy shop has a beautiful, fully stocked candy storefront in Old Town, San Diego. Rustito's Dulces has one of the largest taffy selections I've ever seen. The enchilados and freeze dried candies are my favorite by far. Their enchilado recipe is the owner's very own recipe and it's full of flavor, the right blend/balnce. The enchilado candies are the perfect blend of spicy, sweet, tangy, and salty. If you are curious, try some of the candy made with the enchilado recipe, you'll thank me later. Rustito's Dulce's has all of the latest viral trending treats, just check TikTok and you'll know exactly what I mean. They sell delicious freeze dried candy, pickle kits (by far the biggest and best selection I've ever seen), chamoy candy, fresh taffy, and the best snacks you never knew you needed. Some exotic snacks (chips, Mexican candy) that are hard to find! If you are looking for a sweet treat or two, stop by. Some items I highly recommend include the following: freeze dried cotton candy taffy, chamoy freeze dried rainbow puffs, sour blue razz gushers enchilados, and fresh taffy! I have visited the store on three separate occasions. The employees are always friendly and quick to greet/welcome. They are knowledgeable about the products and willing to offer recommendations. Make sure to enter your phone number for their rewards program.

    I'm only doing a review because when purchased on TikTok the owner mentioned to make sure I leave a review. Here is my honest opinion.I was so excited to receive my candy order in the mail granted I do live in Las Vegas upon arrival my candy was completely melted. I was so disappointed now the owners are amazing people and they can't control the weather but long story short I wasn't able to enjoy my candy other than that I must say the experience was great.

    The  owner preparing a gummy candy platter for for me. They have several sizes you can pick.

    What describe this store the best is a wonderful mix of American and Mexican candies. They have a wonderful gummy bar area and a great selection of different flavor of pickles, which also includes pickle kits to make your own candy mix pickles, which are very popular. You can handpick a vast selection of gummy candy and also sugar free chocolate covered nuts, etc. I highly recommend you visit the store because it's located in Old Town San Diego. Very visited touristy spot and lots to see in the area as well. They are also very popular on TikTok.

    I have been shopping at Kiko + Sven for the past several years. It was one of the first stores I…read morelearned about when I went to the very first Adams Avenue Spirit Stroll, which is a local, annual sip and shop event. I then went back to do a little holiday shopping, and have been back many times since. I am also happy that the shop continues to host a spirt stop on the stroll. Kiko + Sven is a tiny shop with a lot of cute items. Some appear handmade and other are just cute or unique. They probably have more jewelry than anything. It is mostly dainty gold and silver, some with long beads and some made from clay. They have a back wall that is full of greeting cards, and a section of toddler and baby items. There are usually quite a few candles and soaps, and a small amount of cocktail/cooking supplies. All of it calls out to me... and makes me want to spend money. They also have a rack of clothing in the shop, and usually a sale rack outside. I have bought a couple of tops and a cute shawl there in the past, but since the selection is so small, I often don't find any clothing that either is my size or style. I think it is a great shop to browse and find something unecspected. As it is very small, the times I went looking for something more specific for gifts, it has been a bit hit or miss. Their stock varies over time and you may or may not luck out. All in all, if you are shopping or eating on Adams, go check it out. It's really fun to browse and you may find something you like. Also, they will make you an account so you can put your phone number in for discounts without any coupons or solicitaitons.

I always look forward to going in there to see what they have. Also the service is always helpful and can answer any questions you may have. They also support local artists and there always new items to see when you go in. Also if you are a plant lover they have unique ones as well as pots too.

It's perfect for gifting: they carry a wide range of cookbooks, jewelry, home and kitchen items, candles, perfumes, cards, and tons more. Whether it's a housewarming, birthday, or a "just because" moment, this is always one of my go‑to spots. I love that they wrap purchases in pretty tissue paper, making every gift feel intentional and ready to give. The store is full of little treasures, so take your time -- there's a lot to explore. Gold Leaf is also part of a small cluster of connected shops right in the heart of South Park, which makes it even more fun to wander around and browse. A charming, thoughtful, beautifully curated shop that never disappoints.

    Cute, cute little shop!…read more My FAVORITE thing about this small shop is the worker doesn't harass you the whole time. (Thank the lord!) I love boutique stores but hate when they follow you around/pressure you to buy. A hello, asked if we need anything, and friendly service on the way out. Service 5/5. Simple yet effective. Select is adorable. Some expensive but they do have quite a few reasonably priced items. I originally went for a journal and really love the selection of everything they had. Fun artsy items. Also seemed to carry alot of smaller business (which I love!) If are looking for cute niche items -this is your place. I will be back! :)
