    While in Solvang over The Weekend we stopped by here to get some candy. The mango flavor hard candy was delicious. Got a few bags as stocking stuffers. They have chocolates and more. A really cute place to stop by for specialty items. I noticed they had stollen which was around $35. That's very traditional for Christmas time. Service was good so was the ambiance in the shop.

    Came in here looking for chocolate. The staff was really nice and offered us a sample of their orange candy which was yummy. We got a box of truffles that were delicious! It came in a variety of white, milk, and dark chocolate. They were all smooth and creamy with just the right amount of sweetness. My favorite was the dark chocolate one with chili and the white chocolate with citrus undertones.

    I didn't purchase anything from this shop but it was the cutest candy shop in Solvang. The Christmas candy gifts were unique and cute! S'mores, mud pies, Peppermint bark and Stollen! The cashier offered me a sample of their peach mango polkagris which is a hard taffy. Polkagris is what this shop is known for. I was too focused on the chocolates items because I just prefer chocolates over hard candies but I did enjoy the polkagris I tried. Their website does not do this shop justice. Besides the chocolates and polkagris they also sell honey, teas and coffee. Candy shop clerks were friendly and the shop wasn't busy on the Sunday morning we visited so we were able to get a good look at items. This shop is a must visit! It's right across the street from the little mermaid fountain.

    This sweet little candy shop had all of the childhood whimsical vibes you could ever want in a candy store.... My eyes were so delighted with all of the lickable , yummy candy sticks I felt like a little girl when I first walked in it made my eyes happy ... If you go to Solvang, you must stop in it's centrally located with all of the wonderful shops. It's a tiny little place, but it's worth the go to...

    Went into the Swedish Candy Factory on 8/24/24. The guy, while pointing to lady sitting at register, said out loud enough for her to hear "She has samples of our candies." We walked over to her and she just looked up at us not saying anything. So we took our business elsewhere.

    The employees are super nice, and the shop is very cute. They offered candy for us to try when we entered the store! They had chocolates and lots of flavors of polkagris (almost like taffy) that they made! We bought a small bag of watermelon polkagris. It's sweet and sour at the same time. A bit pricey ($9 for small bag), but it is handmade and delicious!

    Rude man

    This guy was a rude with his "jokes". We asked to sample a polka and he gave attitude because we already sampled the free chocolate they had. RUDE They also advertise gummy, bears, like if they were made there but are just taking out a one bag and putting it into a plastic bag

    Milk chocolate covered strawberries amazing!!!!!!

There are many gourmet cheeses, meats, olive oils, whole bean coffees, wines and more. The woman behind the cheese counter invited us to try the cheese samples. There was a lavender cheese and the black cheese with lemon that caught my eye. I bought the black cheese with lemon. The shop associate told me that the black color comes from licorice powder yet you cannot taste the licorice, only the lemon. There were many things I wanted to buy but had to have control. I love that a mother and daughter team run the shop and I loved hearing the mother speak Danish to an older woman that is one of their regular customers. Definitely check out the wonderful gourmet foods here when you visit Solvang.

Either way, nobody deserves to be treated the way she will treat you. Please go ANYWHERE else for your cheese and wine. I tried to have a conversation about her cheese selection asking for suggestions and she was terribly rude for no reason at all. You can easily buy most of her cheeses from Trader Joe's for half the price and without being spoken down to as a cutomer. There's plenty of other shops in Solvang with cheese and wine. DO NOT COME HERE!

It looks so charming and I couldn't get in there fast enough, so as soon as I finish my wine tasting, I went in there and let me tell you. You can find the smallest whimsical fairy make Believe, Stone little Shop. The owner was so helpful and she really really really really enjoys her job at this spot. I believe she's the owner quite frankly, and she was so helpful, so kind she really made this experience an even nicer one to be honest. You can find the cutest little knickknacks in the store great personal gifts quite frankly, I would go and just check it out. Also be careful because since there's a lot of things that can brake. just want to be on the cautious side because the store is really small. You can find plenty of parking on the street on Main Street in Solvang or you can find parking behind their establishment. Either way you have to check out this store.
