Went in looking for some d fashioned candy .. hardly any . Except some rock candy .. half the candy tube bins were empty and dirty .. the only thing well stocked was the jelly beans . read more

Seems this place has gone downhill this year or doesn't care anymore. Could not find any candy except jaw breakers or rock candy, most of the candy jars are empty broken and dirty, what they call "handmades" were basically empty, the restroom looked like it had not been cleaned in weeks and now I had a surprise topping on my ice cream cone, a black pubic looking hair. Pretty damn gross. I couldn't even find an employee when I went in, no one was around and then I saw one girl just standing in the back on her phone, did not greet me at all until I said hello a few times. I was there a couple times in September and October and it seemed different then. The manager was very friendly and helpful, store was clean and pretty well stocked and it was a completely different experience than the one I had recently. What's going on? read more

Fun place to go with all types of candies, old time treats, toys, best of all "ice cream cones" for a special treat! Kids will go crazy in there with all the fun stuff to look at and "want"! Great for special occasion treats, little fun gifts! You will love it, not the typical Icecream place! read more

The apples were perfect!! Nice, crisp and juicy. Oh and the apples are huge!! Such a cute little shop and must stop if you're ever passing through Bastrop!! read more

Sugar Shack - Candy Stores Near Me - Bastrop, Texas

Swung by to see if they had any Black Friday sales. Made out like a bandit. I love this piece of heaven in Bastrop. The new owners have done this place justice. This has always been my first stop for gifts and sweets of course. read more

It's what's on the inside that counts. Ice cream, cakes, brownies, other baked goods, and hard to find candies. And Jasmine - super shy yet helpful "Candy Captain" behind the counter. I had my doubts from the looks of the outside, but boy was I wrong. Visiting Easter weekend was cool because they had the Easter bunny in costume there ready for photos. One infant was screaming his bloody head off in terror as his parents placed him the lap of an oversized bunny from a nightmare to take a photo! Lol. They snapped the pic quick to everyone's liking. This whole place is great for sugar-holics or wanna be diabetics. And it's clear the owners have an unhealthy relationship with M&Ms by looking at all the toys in the top shelf that goes throughout their shop. Cool, snarky greeting cards and even male chauvinistic pocket knives! We'll visit here every time we're in Bastrop. read more

This is a neat place. We take the kids every time we visit family in Bastrop for the last 17 years. It has a bit of everything sweet. Older candy that you don't see much anymore, newer candy, joke or odd candy, they have a bunch. They have specialty candy and dipped candy like chocolate dipped Oreos or bacon. They have fudge and often locally made cookies too. They also serve ice cream and sell trinkets and bobbles. Definitely a cool place to take the kids and get an ice cream on hot days. Staff is always friendly and helpful. read more

Fun and cute place! Took one of my kids and we had a great time looking through all the options before picking what candy to bring home. The person working the register was really nice too! read more

If you are ever in the city of Bastrop be sure you pay a visit to the Sugar Shack. Came out here to bring the grandkids for some treats and boy is this the place to come to. This candy store has a bit of everything. They have ice cream, all sorts of candies, lollipops, jelly beans, bubble gum, toys, and let's not forget the gourmet chocolates and fudge, including a few pastries. I would never finish this review if I told you everything they have. Did I say they have chocolates, and fudge? They do!! Plenty of parking and they have sitting out back in case you want to eat all your yummy treats there. Cash, credit/debit, apple pay may be used to make your purchases. Give it a try. read more

Sugar Shack - They have me!!!! A Mega dumb dum!!!!! - Candy Stores Near Me - Bastrop, Texas

Nice simplicity. Plenty of sugary choices and minimal savory items. Some artful collections and appealing children's toys. Highlight was the choice if either Blue Bell ice cream or smoothie haven. The simple rustic charm if the ole "shack" with its simple decor does give a fun tourist attraction for Bastrop. Once in awhile to visit; especially fir a summer treat and a good midday treat of "sugar" cravings. Friendly staff and a mini adventure into sweets for locals and visitors...yummy. read more

Small confectionery shop in Bastrop. Have good service. The strawberry dipped in chocolate is very good.

Huge variety and selection, needs a lot of modern updating and I think our Candy was expired. It had a soapy taste to it. I was really excited because I'm from Northern California where the jelly belly factory is and I saw on doordash that they have jelly belly blackberries and raspberries. They tasted old and my younger son who is a candy addict wouldn't even eat them. The store is definitely a very old building so it is hard, I am sure to make it appear clean and not cluttered. The staff was very kind and the variety is so much you really are overstimulated with choice when you walk in. If I was the owner, I would invest in updating the property and downsizing selection and making sure things remain fresh and not expired. I would see what sells the most and hyper focus on those items. I'm not the owner, so, obviously it's a very old established business the community loves but this town is ripe for new entrepreneurs and innovation.... Especially with the housing boom here. My son got a packaged candy that wasn't expired which he gobbled down and my other son got rock candy - those don't really expire I don't think... sugar causes cancer so I probably won't be back but it had old town charm* read more

If you are looking for ice cream this shop has a great variety of the delicious "Blue Bell" brand ice cream. Whether you live in greater Bastrop or are passing through, this shop is worth a visit. Plan to stay a while and browse everything sugar, and enjoy a hand dipped ice cream cone. They have a great selection of cones to choose from. The store also offers a variety of novelty items that are fun to read, enjoy, and browse. They work from a nondescript building just a stones throw from the Colorado river near downtown Bastrop. Enjoy! read more

We just did our daughter's joint birthday party here & I cannot recommend them enough! The hosts were very attentive, helpful, & super friendly. All we did was show up with food, goodie bags, & birthday cake, they took care of everything else! Set up, the clean up, drinks, utensils, decorations, the activity, hosting, everything! This was the easiest, non stressed party we've ever had. I highly recommend if you're having a small party (it's on the back patio, so not super big for a large party), it's affordable, & fun for the kiddos. ADD THE CANDY RUN!!! The whole store stopped what they were doing & cheered on those who participated, it was awesome. Thanks "Sugar" for hosting, entertaining the kids, & just an overall great time! We'll most definitely be back next year for one of the other kiddos birthdays! read more

Great place for buying unique gifts and candy! We love stopping by for an ice cream cone!

Awesome spot for a sweet treat. We went while in vacation in Bastrop and had rocky road shakes! And their selection of chocolate goodies was great. Try the chocolate covered Pringles and chocolate covered mint Oreos! read more

Went there for dessert for my birthday today. Had a dipped waffle cone with Rocky Road ice cream. Their scoops are huge!! I tried some of their chocolates. I thought I got a coconut chocolate, but I made it home with two caramel chocolates, two dark chocolate lemon Creme chocolates and a chocolate chocolate truffle. I like the caramel. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the strong lemon in the lemon Creme chocolate. I literally ate both and am still craving more!! Thank you for the birthday discount since today was my first time there at Sugar Shack! Yummy! read more

it was really delicious, very amazing customer service and I highly enjoyed the brownie sundae. Will definitely be coming back.

I went in with my daughter in laws and their small toddlers for ice cream. We were surprised at the nice selection of candies, cookies, chocolates etc. It is a true "Sugar Shack". The young ladies helping us were cordial. It was a great day to sit outside and eat ice cream, loaded up with a bag of goodies to take back to the hubbies. read more

Their caramel apples are 10/10 like I recommend the caramel apples and also the cheesecake is a one. Oh my gosh.

It's called Sugar Shack. How could it not be awesome?! I saw this place as we were driving to Bastrop State Park, and knew I'd need to stop by after my 25k trail run. So after refueling with a huge burger and beer after the race, where better to stop than at a place that sells sugar? So much sugar. Yummy sugar! They have bulk candy, candy bars (my hubby found a Cherry Mash that he loves and rarely sees), chocolate covered gummy bears (my favorite) and these decadent sea salt chocolate caramels. I could have spent SO MUCH money there. I could get SO FAT living close to here. Hubby bought fudge too, and didn't have it till the next day, and it was a little dry. So, not sure if it was dry when we bought it or not. It still tasted okay, just not as good as we had hoped. I would go to Buc-ees for fudge next time. Or, maybe ask them for a sample to make sure it wasn't dried out. I didn't see any of the weird stuff another reviewer saw; just candy, stuffed animals, and a lot of cute trinkets. But I admit I was distracted by all the sweets. It's not cheap, but they have almost everything you could want, and the people are super friendly and helpful, as well. I will be back for sure! read more

If you're into candy this is the place, all kinds of sweets to choose from, some I never even heard of. They even have ice cream, not a fan of Blue Bell prefer soft serve myself but that's just me. read more

This place rocks. They have my chocolate dipped orange peel and my Fresh Scents sachets. Fudge, popcorn, m&ms, make your own bridge mix, etc etc etc etc etc. I haven't been able to get out the door with less than $30 worth of sugar. Please tell me how 1/2 lb of chocolate puts 10 lbs on your butt. I haven't figured it out but I'm still trying. Service is wonderful. read more

What a great little small town gem off the highway! It's off of the Highway 71 expressway on the west side of downtown. There aren't a lot of signs or advertising for it, but I'm beyond glad I found it. This gem is one of those places you find when you get off the highway and start to explore Texas. It's a true quaint little sweet shop without any pretense. They have a variety of homemade candies, prepackaged candies, baked goods, and Blue Bell ice cream of all sorts. Pretty much anything you'd want to satisfy your sweet tooth is right here, even nostalgic items like candy cigarettes. Mom and I each had an ice cream cone and came away more than satisfied. The selection and quality here was enough for a good review, but what impressed me was the service. We came about 30 minutes before closing and the young lady working there never made us feel rushed. In fact, she wasn't even happy with the first scoop of my ice cream, so she remade my cone. I wouldn't have been upset with the first cone, but she said the ice cream on top wasn't hard enough. It's incredible to find service so dedicated to doing the right thing. This is one place you should definitely go to spoil your appetite and your sweet tooth. read more

The new owners only care about profit, they fired me because I couldn't get to customers fast enough even though they would schedule me for 8 hours and I'm crippled. They docked my pay without telling me or having me sign anything which I just learned is illegal, the stuff there is great but the new owners don't want to take responsibility that they don't know how to run the store because they didn't show up for training because they had other important stuff, of a customer leaves a bad review about service we get yelled at when they are usually standing there just watching me work, also I don't think they got there food selling permit signed over yet so idk how they are even open still they don't care much about their employees, the workload has increased 10 times since the other owner left and they still can't seem to un why things can't get done, yes that module works for corporate chains but not when. There's only 3 people working throughout the day, they don't know the actual leg work it takes to get everything done , I gave them everything and when I wasn't crippled I was basically running the stre by myself with my assistant. And they had the audacity to tell me that it didn't make sense to pay someone to just stit around, thanks for listening to my rant just basically know that the morals and hometo spirit of the old sugar shack are gone, it's all about the money now and for them.tp do the least possible they'll say they're doing behind the scenes stuff but I literally already knew how to do it and it doesn't take much work at all read more

First, I have to say that their key lime truffles are OFF THE HOOK! Yes, I said it! The last time I only bought one since I'm usually not a truffle (or fudge) person and I made the mistake of waiting until I got back home to eat it. I am in love... It was easy to get lost in this place - not that it was huge but lost in my thoughts - there was just there was so much to look at... a lot of childhood memories came up in my mind because of some of their candies and toys. I even bought an ex-husband voodoo doll! LMBO Too funny - it has a special spot at my computer desk now. And when the ex gets on my nerves, I turn to that little black doll and pin away! :P All in all, it's a neat stopover when in town! read more

Super cute small business. The bathrooms are nice and clean and they had so many adorable souvenirs. The candy selection was enormous. Definitely recommend read more

I canNOT say enough about how delicious this place is. I told my husband he should NOT have brought his pregnant wife into this candy store. We got an assortment of goodies: chocolate covered Oreos, Nutterbutters, honey comb, and (my favorite) potato chips!!! We will be back. read more

This place is Ahhhdorable. They have ice cream, fudge and then a great variety of old candy, not old as in expired, old as in old fashioned. Candy cigarettes for crying out loud, I love those things! The young guy that was working there was pretty funny. I loved this little place. I seriously spent $50 on Godknowswhat, but had fun doing it. read more

The *other* Hill Country Sugar Shack... When you see the word "FUDGE", it's like some kind of magnet. You know you gotta stop. Candies...cookies...cakes...Dublin Dr Pepper! This place is paradise for those looking for their sugar rush. And a neat little deck out back, too! Not only goodies, but gifts, in a place as colorful as a carnival. We had a caramel apple, some white fudge, and some coconut cookies, and washed 'em down with a Dr Pepper (the real thing) and a (gourmet) cream soda, out back under an umbrella at one of the table on the deck. Like I said...paradise! read more

Love this little shack by the road. Went here twice with a friend since he told me about it. While visiting in Austin I definately wanted to go to it.
