Really blown away by this little, local business. (Well maybe not so 'little'...a friend of mine…read moretold me some of their items are carried at some Ralph's in the area?) That same friend is getting married in Palm Springs next month and pulled together a cute location-inspired care package to go with her invitation to guests. It's a virtual wedding, so she wanted to bring the experience of being in Palm Springs for all. Included a bag of this toffee caramel corn and let me just tell you...(and a few other recipients agree)...this stuff is ADDICTIVE. The absolute, most delectable caramel corn I have had in my life. Jam-packaged with decadent flavor, and quality corn, each cluster is HEAVEN and unlike anything I have tasted. I immediately got online (palmspringscandy.com) and ordered a sampling of bags. To my surprise, these treats are surprisingly affordable. For a mere $4-$6, you can snag a 7 oz bag in a variety of flavors. Or, go a full jar if your heart desires. Conversely, they also offer 3 oz bags in some flavors. (Note: shipping is around $9 but totally worth it if you're buying multiples, and is offset by the low cost of each bag). I snagged Toffee Caramel, Toffee Caramel with Cashews/Almonds, Honey Macadamia, and Praline Pecan. Drool. I was stunned when my order arrived just days later, perfectly packed including tissue and bubble wrap. Inside the package, a thank you message jotted down on the invoice, handwritten by Staci. A simple gesture, but one I always feel especially meaningful, as I typically only see personal touches like this with Etsy orders/smaller business. So, excellent customer service indeed. Very impressed and so happy to have discovered this gem. Thank you to Staci and team! You have converted a new, now long-term customer. 5 stars right at you.

The gentleman who greeted my family was incredibly kind and offered us samples of their toffee popcorn and toffee bar. It was such a thoughtful touch and definitely got us excited to try more. We ordered the toffee ice cream cups and the toffee ice cream bar. Both were absolutely delicious. The flavors were rich, fresh and perfectly balanced. It's safe to say we'll definitely be coming back. The shop itself is beautiful. The space feels clean, inviting and thoughtfully designed. There was a nice elevated feel that makes the experience even more enjoyable. I loved how the interior perfectly complemented the simple, curated menu. If you're in the area and have a sweet tooth, this place is absolutely worth a visit.

We immediately wondered if it was the same owner and sure enough it is. This Palm Springs spot is their second location and it felt like a little piece of home for us. We could not resist grabbing another bag of candy to support a favorite local shop. They had all the classics we know and love from Newport including the huge variety of house made taffy, baseball chew, and every kind of sour candy you can think of. Everything was fresh and displayed so nicely that it is impossible to walk out empty handed. The staff here are just as friendly as the team back home and the store is spotless and fun for kids and adults alike. Whether you are visiting Palm Springs or a local with a sweet tooth this is an easy recommendation. It is the perfect spot to pick up treats for yourself or to share and it definitely made our anniversary weekend even sweeter.

Now we could've gone to Great Shakes (review: https://yelp.to/mzOC66QAth), but there was a line and we just had no patience. So we walked over to this place because only a handful of people were in here. It wasn't a shake shack but a sweets shop, an old-fashioned, family-run operation. There was just one woman behind the counter, and she was busily handling orders for chocolates and candied apples. We waited our turn and ordered a couple of the $7.99 Date Shakes (Photo 9). They were fine, even without the mini-donuts Great Shakes serves with theirs. I need to give her credit for making it from scratch without any help from the rest of the family.

They were so good I would've taken some home if we'd had a cool place to store them during the drive home. We ordered the toffee latte. At $10, it's a little pricey, though I understand it's made with their specialty toffee syrup. It was definitely espresso forward, which I didn't mind, but I wish the toffee flavor came through more instead of just a subtle hint with each sip. Even so, it was still a pretty decent latte and worth a visit when walking downtown.
