Lots of yummy options, labeled for allergens. The offer a variety of gummies and chocolate. When I went in March 2026 they were in a temporary location a few doors down. read more

Finally came here after seeing all the hype on social media. The candies are a hit or miss, but I still enjoyed grabbing a bunch and trying different ones. You get a scoop and a bag, pick whatever candies you want, and they weigh it at the end. One thing I didn't love is that one drawer lid covers a whole row of candies. I wish each bin had its own lid so you're not interfering with other customers while scooping. I also found a hair in one of the bins, so I hope they check and clean the candies more often. read more

I have been coming here since before pandemic as I was a WeHo local. Unfortunately, over the years quality has gone down quite a bit. I started coming here because of the unique candy brands and of course the Bubs. They use to have 5-6 different bub flavors and shapes. You were also able to walk all the way into the store before and then in pandemic that changed a bit and they blocked off half the store for online orders. It was fine at the time but they company just became "sellouts". I'm sure that they are doing very well online however their loyal, local customers were given the short stick. It does not feel like the family friendly vibe when I first started coming here 5ish/6 years ago. I used to go out of my way to come here and now I don't even bother. I just go to another shop around 20 minutes away in Burbank. Definitely too bad as I had a gift card but oh well. Overall, 2/5 stars. read more

Rating: 8/10 Great variety of Swedish candy, quick and easy! Friend and I came on a Friday around 1PM. Only street parking, which can be difficult; however, it's super close to the Grove, so if you were already at the Grove, you can walk over within 5 min! Not too busy at all. The staff showed us how to grab candy with clean scoops. Every pound is 17.99, which sounds expensive but if you're getting a mindful amount, it's not too pricey. Friend and I's were about $11.50 and $13.50 for a good amount of candy that will last us days. Some candies tasted good, others not so much. The marshmallows were not to our taste, but we loved the Cola sour gummies. I highly recommend this place if you're in the area for some yummy specialty candy! read more

Love the selection of candy they have! Every time I go I try something new and end up really liking it. I think it's fun and there isn't anywhere else in LA that focuses on Swedish candy so it's definitely worth checking out and spending a little more than you'd like on some pieces of candy! read more

I am OBSESSED with Sockerbit!!! Stopped in while in LA because Dana Bowling recommended them on one of her livestreams. Went into the store and purchased a mixed bag of sweet gummies. Loved them SO much that I made my sister stop at the store on our way to LAX for my flight home. The staff is super sweet and helpful and the store is well laid out and adorable! I sing the praises of Sockerbit to anyone who will listen and plan to stop in anytime I'm in LA read more

I love Swedish Candy as it has no artificial dyes and the texture of their candy is like no other. There are a variety of options to choose from, however, if you're looking to grab the viral Bubz Candy, they are solely separately in their own pre scooped baggies. My friend did pick one up and we got to try them. I think my bag was around $11 for the weight I scooped. They have so many fun different shapes and samples if you're into black licorice (not a fan, personally). I had a great time for such a small little candy shop. It's a great alternative for your sweet tooth and I find them fascinating than American candies! Everything was stocked neatly and organized/clean. The only annoying part was reaching for the scoop and lifting the bar. I would highly recommend Sockerbit for anyone looking to try Swedish candy! read more

Sockerbit is such a cute little Swedish candy shop -- super clean, bright, and definitely feels more curated than your average candy store. Everything is sold by weight, so you can mix and match and grab as much (or as little) as you want... just be careful, it adds up fast. The candy itself is fun to try -- lots of unique gummies, sours, chocolates, and of course, the salty licorice if you're feeling adventurous. That said, not everything is a winner. Some of the candies definitely have that vitamin gummy vibe, which isn't really my thing, but that's part of the experience. It's a little hit or miss depending on what you pick. Overall, it's a fun stop if you want to try something different or get your gummy fix. It's a cute spot, just be ready to experiment (and maybe accidentally grab something that tastes like a multivitamin gummy). read more

these candies have the same texture as swedish fish, so if you enjoy those, you just might really like these not all candies are the same - they also have marshmallow texture and sour patch texture my personal fave is the watermelon rolls they were sour on the outside but sweet and had a soft chewy bit on the inside me personally there was only 1 that i really liked :( they also have soda, chocolate etc along the other side of the wall but everyone comes here for the candy it's a self serve candy shop, like ur average self serve candy shop with a spoon and a paper bag the vibe is a little off felt a hella eerie on the day that i went, but maybe it was just a that day thing service is good, the area is right next to the grove so if u ever stop by def give sockerbit a try! they are a bit pricey so plan for that too read more

Great candy store! The entire store was very clean, including a dirty and clean candy scooper. The cashier kindly explained how much a pound was (17.99/pound) and the simple directions. The candy has a cover on top of each row. I would have liked individual candy covers, but it is still really clean to even have a cover. Candy itself was very fresh and super delicious. I'm a big fan of the mini pacifiers and other sour candies. read more

The perfect place to get your gummy fix! There's a wide range of gummies all with different textures. I, myself am a huge cola gummy fan, I only got cola flavor items. Each gummy had its own unique texture, from incredibly chewy, to sticky, fizzy, soft and bouncy. I enjoyed trying each texture and now know which ones I'd come back for. The price is very reasonably set. The process is very quick and easy, from scooping to purchasing. It wasn't as busy as I thought it would be and I'm so glad I tried it! read more

If I'm in the area we always make a stop at sockerbit. If you gummy candies this is your spot. The best! All of them are yummy. I love and highly recommend any of the skulls. My favorite is the sour berry skulls ( the white and pink ones). So addictive. Also I don't feel so guilty since it doesn't contain a lot junk the other gummy candies have like red 40. It's non GMO and has no HFCS. Super expensive if you buy online with shipping costs so I like to visit every so often. read more

So many different types of candy to choose from!! This was a fun experience and I definitely recommend people to come try it out! The workers were super friendly and welcoming. They give you your own clean scooper and you get to choose your own candy. I got one of everything so I can't remember which one was my favorite but there was definitely no "bad ones". I can't wait to go back! Note: It is only paid street parking so you might have to circle around a few times to find a parking spot. read more

Candy, Candy, and more Candy! What's not to like? First off, they have an immense selection of Swedish candy, as you would expect, but when I visited, they didn't have all the ones that my friend and I wanted from the website. That being said, staff was super friendly and was able to even get some of our selections from the back. Once you enter, grab a paper bag and start filling it with all the candy you want. It is self-scoop / serve and don't be shy if you need another bag since the candies can get pretty heavy. Once you're done, they ring you up and they charge by the pound. Interior is clean and there's a lot of foot traffic in and out when I was there. Parking can be a challenge since there's only street parking available (metered). read more

Parking: Read the signs and you can find free neighborhood parking within a few blocks if you don't want to find a meter on 3rd St Experience: I got there right around 11am when it opened on a Monday and the store was already starting to get crowded. They were out of some of their more popular candies but there were still a lot to choose from. The main wall had all the gummies and then the other wall had licorice. You grab a bag and a candy scooper, fill up your bag, then pay by weight. I got a small bag for $8 which I didn't think was too bad, but I definitely see how it can get expensive. Definitely a fun place if you like non-chocolate candy/gummies. read more

Before Sockerbit became TikTok famous, the staff were really kind and even allowed my service dog inside while I purchased candy. I used to visit all the time with my dogs, but recently, they started refusing entry if I had my small dogs with me (one is 5lbs and the other is 10lbs). They insisted I leave them outside, which I complied with, but it was disappointing. Additionally, every time I return without my dogs, the store seems to be sold out of a lot of items. It's also concerning that the candy lids are left open, and people talk over the exposed candy--it feels unsanitary. The last time I called to ask if they had bon bons in stock, the person on the phone didn't know what I was talking about and hung up. When I visited in person, they immediately knew what I meant, which left me confused since I thought "bon bons" was the correct name. It's disappointing how things have changed since the store became so popular. I really loved this candy spot, but it's definitely not the same experience anymore. read more

Yayy! Finally got to get Swedish candy, may favorite! It's across the farmers market that I usually go to and I didn't know how close sockerbit was! Service was fine people came all at once so it was difficult to get candy as quick. Overall the ambiance was just as expected of a candy shop. Seemed like a lot of tourists came to try it out as well. The candy were interesting and ok! My favorite selection were the marshmallow gummies, raspberry marshmallow!! The sweet people candies were probably not the best selection. Overall if I came back it would only be for the raspberry marshmallow/marshmallows. No restrooms here! Parking is plenty on the street or neighborhood, even farmers market! read more

Sockerbit - Candy Stores Near Me - Los Angeles, California

My wife loves sour, gummy candies, and makes it a point to visit Sockerbit when we are in Los Angeles. Located near The Grove in LA and next to Wanderlust, Sockerbit is a quaint candy store that has a plethora of candy options. It wasn't too busy when we've gone, but sometimes they are sold out of specific options. Service was neutral, nothing that stood out good or bad. I personally am not the biggest fan of sour candy, but I was impressed with the wide selection that they had, and my wife loved trying out different options. In particular, she liked the super sour S coins, the skulls, and pacifiers. They have different flavors like watermelon, lemon, lime, and strawberry that stood out to me, but I also saw bubblegum, cola, and other candies that weren't sour or gummies. Sockerbit is a great place to visit for your sour candy kick and would make a great gift for friends who love sour candy. I'm surprised that more places haven't popped up with a similar offering, so for now Sockerbit is our go-to place when my wife is craving sour, gummy candies. read more

The hubby and I were walking by and saw all these ppl visiting the store so we paid a visit too! A quaint little shop filled with Swedish candy! Who doesn't love Swedish fish? Well, they had the sour kinds! The sweet employee allowed my husband a sample when he inquired about the Rambo's. The employee mentioned this little pack of candy called Bubs apparently they were tending on TikTok. A good little amount of candy cost us 12 bucks. Such a treat when most ppl walking in the area are shopping anyways. read more

Swedish candy has taken over my entire life and I was so happy to find out there's one in LA! Definitely a good assortment to choose from although there were some that weren't restocked but given how viral this candy has become, it's understandable they'd be busier than normal. Parking is tough, I had to circle a bit to find street parking. Store is clean and small though, I'll definitely return back! read more

You best believe I jumped on the Swedish candy bandwagon after seeing it alllll over my FYP! Sockerbit has been around for over a decade and they're finally getting their rightful turn in the spotlight. Walking in, you're greeted by a colorful array of sweets, sours, chocolates, and more! I wouldn't say their selection is the widest (I'm sure the recent surge in popularity has something to do with this), but all the popular ones (Bubs, sour skulls, bottles, pacifiers, mushrooms, etc.) are definitely in stock. It's a self-servicing kind of shop, so everything's super customizable. Get as little or as much as you'd like. They also offer resealable bags to ensure the optimal freshness of your candy. Super cute and superrrr yummy! These top-tier candies definitely lived up to the hype in my book. read more

I've been wanting to try this place for a few years now. Finally got a chance this weekend. The parking was not easy so we parked across the street in the Whole foods/CVS lot. We did buy a drink at WF then walked to Sockerbit. It is a small shop and it was pretty packed. Upon entering you grab a bag and scoop. You help yourself to the many varieties of Swedish candy & chocolates. I tried several types hoping they would be good. I also hoped it wouldn't cost too much since they weigh your bag, that usually means you get a little bit but pay a lot! Of course the day I went they didn't even have the BUBS which I was dying to try. I went up to pay and the machine wouldn't take my card and the young lady said you had to insert it a total of three times for it to work, not sure why. Nevertheless it didn't work but my total was $8.10 and I happened to have the exact change. She said that was good because I guess they don't make change. I don't know why, it was odd. I asked if they were out of the BUBS and she said yes but they had them in prepackaged bags but I said no thanks. I paid and got out of there it was too crowded for me. I know people rave about Swedish candy but I really don't get it. The candy was all very hard and the marshmallow types were hard to chew, not sure if that's how it's suppose to be. I was not impressed. I'm finding more and more that people rave about places then I go and it's not good. HaHa maybe I'm just too picky. Seriously though I love sweet and sour candy and gummies and this candy was not very good. I'd rather pay $1.25 (well now $1.50) at Dollar Tree for some Trolli or Sour Patch kids! The flavor and texture is better. I wouldn't recommend this place it was not worth it, and the staff was just meh. read more

My daughter has seen Sockerbit and been wanting to swing by so since we were in the area we decided to make the trip. When you first walk in it looks like a smaller candy store but once you walk past the register the room opens up and there is even more candy. I didn't see prices and I didn't ask but we bought a grab back of goodies and some Bailey's Marzapan and my total was around $24. It was well worth it though to see the excitement of Bailey finally being able to try the famous candies. It was a Saturday, early event and it was quite packed. Tasty candies and employee was nice enough when we nade our our. The store was nice, clean and had places clearly marked to pick up clean scoops and drop off used ones. Worth checking out for sure read more

Good Swedish candy selection when they're not sold out. Recommend to come early as they send to run low towards the afternoon. Our favorites were the the banana caramel bubs and sour skull collection. But it's a bit pricey for the amount candy that you get. read more

Can't resist the Swedish candy!! I've ordered online and been in store- if you can, I'd highly recommend going to the store over ordering online (online orders are backed up bc of the demand and it took a few weeks for my order to arrive with substitutions). My favorites are the super sour skulls, banana marshmallows and sour raspberry gummies! read more

Great location. Friendly service. Amazing selection. Although they only sell the BUBS pre-packaged, there are plenty of other fantastic, delicious candies to choose from. And they also have Swedish chocolate, which is so good. If you like Swedish candy, you've gotta try this place! read more

If you're a candy lover, you will probably enjoy this spot. They have a great variety to mix together, and most of them are flavorful and chewy. A few pieces did seem stale, likely due to being left uncovered. The pricing is a little on the steep side- $16.99 per pound- but it's not totally out of line with similar spots, though I couldn't find that listed anywhere clearly and had to ask someone. The staff seemed a bit impatient and dismissive, which was off-putting. The store itself is simple, just a small, concrete place but it's clean. Parking near the Grove can be tricky, so keep that in mind. read more

Stopped by during a day trip to LA from San Diego and had a great experience! The candy was 100/10 and definitely lived up to the hype. I appreciate that they are vegan and gelatin-free, and I think that helps the candy be so unique. In the store, the candies aren't labeled so it really is a guessing game with flavors and ingredients. One thing to note is they ship from their location so you will see candies in store that are not available for in-store purchase because they are being shipped. In this case, they had the blue and pink skulls in a bag, and the lady was kind enough to give us a few but the rest was being shipped out. read more

My friend wanted to check out this place and it was super cute inside!! We went on a Sunday afternoon and we were lucky because a line started to form outside as it is a small store and only a certain amount of people they allow at a time. They have lots of options of gummy candies and chocolate that you can choose from and the ones I had were yummy even though I'm not a crazy sweets person. I noticed not everything is labeled as I wanted to know what all the flavors were. Parking is a bit hard as it is metered street parking out front but we found free parking blocks down and just walked. read more

This candy store is simply amazing! A self-service shop with so many candy options from Sweden. There is simply something for everyone here with a variety of choices from chocolates to licorice & gummy candies. You pay by the pound here and scoop whatever you want into a bag and you pay at the end when you are done. The staff here are friendly and helpful if you have any questions about certain candy. For $15/lb, you can get so much candy here and I love the texture of their gummy candies and they have sour and non-sour options. The chocolate here is also delicious and doesn't taste too waxy or fake like Hershey's. Parking is available on the street but it can get crowded/full often but the quality of candy and what you can get makes a drive into LA worth it for some of the best Swedish candy I've had! read more

Ever heard the phrase kid in a candy store? Well this sweet shop takes the cake! First things first-- parking on a busy afternoon? Yikes! But fear not, metered street parking is at your disposal. The cashier was so sweet and immediately gave me tips on scavenging for the best sweets. Gummy candies of different sizes, shapes, textures, and sour levels were in abundance. There was also a lovely stock of creamy wholesome chocolates (that didn't taste like sugary chemical compounds), featuring wafers (Kex being my personal favorite), nougat, toffee, digestives, and more! Grab a white paper bag and a candy shovel... and enter at your own risk! Side note: vibes are very upbeat. You're sure to leave with a little pep in your step! read more

I got hit with cravings of Swedish candy and I heard this was the shop to visit. Upon entering, it's a very clean, organized, and minimalist looking candy shop. The candies are all labeled along with a description on the taste. Plenty of gluten free and vegan options! There were a lot of candies, which were the most popular that were out of stock, but the staff were nice enough to recommend similar tasting candies. Overall, I will be visiting again the next time I crave Swedish candy. read more
