When I am fortunate enough to visit the Bayfield area (which by the way is at least every 2-3 weeks…read morein the summer) I end up stopping at Sweet Sailing. The category says Candy store, and there is lots of that, but there is a lot of other items as well. They have a nice selection of tshirts and souvenirs for the visiting vacationers and lots of specialty food items. I have repeatedly gotten some jars of excellent salsa, and there are all sorts of condiments and other savory items. But we do need to talk about the candy. There is a huge selection of candy that is prepackaged and it is quality product. But the good thing here is the fudge and other homemade chocolate candies. I tried the salted caramel fudge- which was incredibly rich and smooth and just a little salty. mmmmm. And they also make a chocolate square that was Salted caramel covered in dark chocolate. Oh my. There are nonchocolate treats as well, and many of them are available by the pound (1/4 pound minimum for the fudge). It is a fun place to stop and there is lots of good things to choose from. Do stop!!

This is one of those stores that you MUST stop into if you are in Bayfield. They have their own…read morecandies, and tons of uniquely made items to buy! They also sell games.. It pretty much is a unique little tourist shop that is definitely worth stopping into. Their fudge is excellent, along with the taffys they sell. They have tons of wood carved furniture, wall hangins, etc. Some are tacky, but for the most part, I enjoy looking at them, I'm not sure if I would want to decorate my house with them, but whatever! If you are looking for a gift for someone, you more than likely, will find it here. You can get anything that would be perfect for a family member, Really anyone! I'm not sure what else to say. I am a fan!

What a gem! Harbor House is a terrific little shop with some seriously delicious treats. If in…read moreWashburn, I highly recommend a stop. The store isn't big but it packs in a nice variety. The highlight is everything at the counter area. There are a variety of chocolates and delish baked treats to choose from. Last time I was there they had a peanut butter s'mores that was excellent. Also caramel filled cupcakes that I didn't get but I was VERY tempted. I have tried the cookies and they are great, several variety of chocolates and other treats to try. I have yet to have anything I wouldn't get again. Beyond that there is a selection of candies of the gummy and Taffy varieties. Along the back wall are maple syrups, caramel sauces (highly recommend!), Preserves I think, some little knickknacks etc. They also maybe have ice cream and serve some food at various times? I have yet to try any of that, but I'd expect good things. In addition to all that, they take requests. My husband ordered a French Silk pie for my birthday (it is my favorite) and despite having not made one before (so I was told) she signed on and whipped one up. It was fantastic! So be sure to check the place out. It's a cute store with awesome treats. As they say, Treat yo self!

Yes, we had to wait since the ice cream treats were made by hand and there was a line of kids & families waiting at the window. I'm an adult and we can wait our turn.

The counter wraps all the way around, providing more room for making and buying candy and snatching some fudge samples. Some of my favorite items: the salt water taffy (don't come at me -- salt water taffy is delightful!), chocolate covered Oreos, candy bark, Jelly Belly's and so many types of fudge. You still have to use cash only -- no credit cards. Thankfully my husband on our most recent visit had some cash on hand. I'm also excited that my kids are getting old enough to get excited about visiting and picking out some select pieces for themselves. They also liked to watch the candy being made in front of them. Tremblay's is also great for food gifts to bring home. Hayward isn't Hayward without Tremblay's!

Fudge and truffles in the case, housemade--you can see the operation in the back. On the shelves... everything else that you can think of: coffee, cocoa mix, spice blends, fancy chocolate bars, various sweets such as "moose poop", "deer poop", and "unicorn poop" aka chocolate-covered almonds, chocolate-covered raisins, and jelly beans. I bought some licorice caramels and got my son to try them, which is a major dad victory. I also picked up a variety of craft soft drinks from Northern Soda Company, based in the Twin Cities (they missed a real opportunity here to call it Minne-soda!). The proprietor said that they're the only shop in the area that carries it. They sell a sampler box as well as loose cans for a make-your-own four-pack. It's all made with real sugar and it's very good, kind of sweet but just drink it over ice on a hot day. Of course there are classics such as cola, root beer, ginger ale, and cream soda, but also black cherry, apple, blue raspberry, and some other enticing-sounding flavors e.g. Sunday Purple, North Coast Cooler, and Pontoon Punch. I kinda wanted to try them all! Next time.

Service was just okay…read more Walked in yesterday and experienced cold and awkward service. The shoppe owner seemed a bit indifferent and crass as well. Totally ironic within a sweet candy shoppe. The candy itself was neat -- a few local products and many chocolate truffles to choose from. Plenty of generic candies as well that you'll find at other spots. Although the candy itself was good, it was way overpriced. Just a few pieces of candy cost close to $20. The bottom line? Chocolate truffles were delicious. Decadent and full of rich chocolate flavor. The English toffee looked good as well. I may get that next time I revisit Duluth. Service needs a bit of a revamp though. It's a small little shoppe. You can't miss it if you're shopping and browsing within the area. Try it for yourself if you have a sweet tooth. Here's hoping you have a sweeter experience.
