The first thing I noticed was the friendly staff who were dressed up in costumes; I'd normally think that was a bit gimmicky but it totally worked in this setting and I thought it was charming. My boyfriend and I had a lot of fun looking at all of the different candies, sodas, and even little knick knacks and then filling up a bag with our own sweets. If I find myself in the area again, I'd stop in again.

I included this Dr Candy on the itinerary when I put on about nine twilight chocolate walking tours last summer. I introduced the guests to their delicious gelatine free chocolate rocks. I also ensured there were a few left over for me for the train ride home. The guests got to taste on the spot, as well as take a few more home. Perfect with the Bulgarian chocolate fro-yo across the road. Also love the gluten free lollies. Looking out for the pink and white stripes.

Screw your markets and bazaars with their aromas of herbs and spices, nothing awakens the senses like the playful crinkle of a monster munch packet or the shine in your eye when the sun catches off the packaging of a Capri Sun (The only place I have found in Australia that stocks them FYI). Expect a friendly greeting from the Welsh lady who's on the counter and get lost in the selection of stuff you'd forgotten you'd missed. Apart from Taste Ireland, which I have also reviewed there is nowhere that I have come across that has as much selection as these guys. While it is mostly sweets and confectionery there is a huge selection of grocery items available too. You name it they pretty much have it. from washing up liquids, to powders, sauces, stuffing, cordials, soft drinks and football merchandise as well. The selection is absolutely massive. if you're missing home and some of your favorite grub pop in and see these guys. It'll be money and time well spent. If you can't make it into the city, they do online ordering too.

They're located in The Rocks shopping area which is close to the Harbor Bridge. I was lucky enough to get a glimpse of the workers choppin' up the candy sticks. There are a wide range of flavaflavs to choose from such as apple, blackberry, banana, citrus mix and hella much more. They also have themed candies aka lollies like Harry Potter, Peter rabbit, Marvel and a few others. All candy comes prepackaged in a resealable pouch. I chose the lime koala, Studio Ghilbli mix, passion fruit and the Peter Rabbit. The koalas and the passionfruit were my favorites! They tasted exactly like lime and passionfruit and I loved the design on them. It was difficult figuring out what flavors the themed ones were but the lollies were still tasty and cute. Overall, these lollies were tasty and reasonably priced (7AUS=4.67USD). They made a great souvenirs for my friends and coworkers. I would definitely come back here when in Sydney to try more of their other lollies and watch them do their thang!
