The worker allows you to try them to find your favorite. I got 2 scoops of the banana pudding. Oh. My. God. It is to die for. It had a great balance of banana and nilla water flavors. My mom also had 2 scoops. I thought the prices were very reasonable and made for an inexpensive dessert. I highly recommend. The candy store is awesome. There is so much to look at. There was lots of candies that I haven't seen in along time. This shop has one of the longest fresh chocolate cases I've seen. There was so much fudge options and other goodies. We got several chocolates to enjoy later in our hotel. They were delicious. The staff here is the sweetest. We felt so welcomed and were greeted right away when we entered. They were patient while we decided on the flavors of chocolates we wanted. I really enjoyed my time here.

They have so many options to choose from, there's something for everyone. We wanted a few pieces of chocolate so we went to the counter and were greeted by the worker.

The milk shake had just the right amount of sweetness and thickness consistency. The shot of expresso mixed with ice cream was the perfect mix, and a great afternoon pick me up. Whenever in DeLand this will always be a stop for me.

The atmosphere was great. The vibes were rocking. The staff made it so memorable for us. The food there was delicious. Burgers on point. Chicken Tenders were nice and crispy. Their Smokey Goblets are always entertaining and their dessert was just just out of this world.

We popped in after hanging around ICON Park when the kids were over it but the adults were ready for a drink lol. Snagged a reservation on OpenTable in under 5 minutes, which was a win. Rocky and Patrick were great--super attentive and kept the vibe fun. The girls split the Strawberry Lemonade Splash--yes, it's $40 for a non-alcoholic candy drink, which is wild, but it's really about the experience (and they loved it). My husband and I went with the Reposado Espresso Martinis--pretty solid and did the job. Food-wise, we kept expectations realistic. The girls got the rainbow sliders (cute, comes with 4) but only ate one each--we boxed the rest. We've had Sugar Factory before, so we didn't go crazy on food and stuck with the wing sampler. Buffalo was the standout--actually flavorful. The lemon pepper and Cajun butter were kinda underwhelming and needed more seasoning. Overall: come for the vibes, drinks, and over-the-top presentation--not necessarily the food. Perfect for a fun stop when you're already in the area.

I can appreciate older times and then today's times the staff was friendly.

I've always wondered what goat milk fudge tasted like and out of the blue one day I just stopped in and it was amazing. It took me back to my childhood, the unique toilet paper and toilet paper holders was nostalgic , old-fashioned handmade candies and ice cream, toffees and taffy the while experience was wonderful if you're ever in the Polk County area stop by have some try it the experience you will never forget it was unbelievable.

Parking is a little tricky, but definitely doable. There's quite a bit of metered parking, and we were able to find a free meter on a Saturday by parking on a nearby side street. The moment we walked in, we were amazed, and clearly hungry, because everything looked so delicious! My daughter made a beeline straight for the $5 candy buffet, which she absolutely loved. It's such a fun and unique option for kids. The vintage bottle drink freezer was another highlight, so colorful and stocked with all kinds of interesting and nostalgic flavors. They also had some funny gag gifts and a great selection of bulk candy at reasonable prices. One of our favorite touches was the little train running around the ceiling, it's such a cute detail that really adds to the experience. They even have a penny press, so be sure to bring two quarters and a shiny penny! We will definitely be back and highly recommend this spot if you're looking for fun gifts or a sweet treat, especially for kids.

You can create your own mixes or get specialty treats from behind the counter. My son loves the simple three marshmallows on a stick dipped in chocolate and sprinkles. They often design these to be Disney themed with character specialties. Like Tigger tales and honey bees. I suggest getting the Caramel Apple with nuts. But without nuts is great too. A tart green apple hides under decadent caramel. ITS SO GOOD! But they also have apples dipped in chocolate if you prefer that are also amazing. The gigantic chocolate chip cookies are also a favorite of my kids but I have to limit them to one treat every time. Its easy to let your eyes to the convincing and get one of everything!

As soon as I walked inside the shop, I could smell the chocolate, caramel, and the freshly popped popcorn! It's a class sweet shop. The shop has a variety of treats which are made fresh on site! Glass classes are filled with hand dipped caramel apples, massive Mickey shaped marshmallow wands, fudge in rotating flavors, and other items like crispy rice treats coated in themed sprinkles! You can actually watch the candy makers behind large windows which is so much fun! The Confectionary also introduces seasonal and limited edition treats that tie in holidays, park celebrations, and special events. There are a lot of prepackaged candies as well, and exclusive popcorn mixes, and even themed chocolate bars that you can purchase! I actually ended up getting a frozen lemonade mix from the Main Street Confectionary. It was a nice warm day in October and it was a perfect refresh drink to enjoy at a bench in Main Street U.S.A. The store does accept Disney's annual pass for a discount! The team members are fantastic!
