MUST GO TO!! Their toy store/ gift shop and their candy stores are right next to each other. My friends and I are both fully grown adults inquiring about squishy's, and the employee could not be more positive, kind, and helpful. This interaction made me remember that some people actually do love their jobs. We checked out and then stayed in the store for a couple more minutes browsing around again because the vibes in there were so good. Not to mention, they also have a very large selection of quite literally everything. The candy shop was also very extensive and the employee working there was very kind as well. Will definitely be coming back! read more

So I found this hidden gem on Yelp because I had this huge craving for a Swedish candy! I used to go to IKEA to get a bunch of Swedish candy; however, they discontinued this option during Covid. With that being said - SHOUT OUT TO UPTOWN CANDY SHOP!! They had a fantastic selection of different candy and Swedish candy! The shop was extremely cute, and the person helping us was very friendly! I came here on a Tuesday and was pleasantly surprised when I saw that there was a deal for half off candy on Tuesdays! It was definitely meant to be!! I will definitely be back!! you guys have to try this out when you guys are in Upland! read more

I've been wanting to visit this shop due to their Swedish candy options. I was a bit disappointed since the selection was small. Although their regular bulk candy options had a good variety. Tip: Tuesdays the bulk candy is half off. read more

I found this place online after taking a trip to New York and had a craving for Swedish candy. Since then, I have been to this candy shop 3 times. The candy selection is HUGE! They have a great variety. From chocolate to gummies, candies from different countries, classics, online viral candies, and fun new ones I have never heard of! Everything was organized nicely. When you come inside, there are simple instructions on how to fill up your bag. It was also clean and gave a classic candy store vibe. Every time I have gone, I have had a great experience with the staff. Even on the phone, they were so sweet (no pun intended). I had called once because Google said they closed at an earlier time that didn't match with their hours on Yelp. When I asked if they were gonna be open, they were nice and answered with the hours, and when I informed them of the Google hours being wrong, they were apologetic and said they would get that fixed soon. I thought that their response was nice because I just had a simple question, I wasn't feeling any sort of bad feeling because of the online hours, but they answered with sincerity! As I mentioned before, I mainly come to this shop for the Swedish candy and to browse. The Swedish candy, the first two times I went were sooo good, I love the selection they have, and how each time I have gone, they change up the selection a bit and introduce new flavors. I will note that the last time I went, the candies I got were a bit hard; the ones I got that time were not different flavors from the previous time I went. Although it tasted the same, the texture felt as though they were left out too long or were stale. That experience will not stop me from coming back and trying it again, though! Hopefully it was just a one-time thing because I still love the store and I totally understand things like that could happen. read more

Love this candy store, definitely come by and try the Swedish selection. The inside decor gives retro theme and tons of choices. Our cashier today was the sweetest. read more

I sent Hubby to this candy store to get the viral Dubai chocolate pistachio bar since he works close by. I saw someone post about it on TikTok so I had to try it. The manager said they are growing and will have a store in Riverside and Chino. She was very friendly and helpful. The candy store is tiny but super cute and has all kinds of candy. They also have a Dubai chocolate spread. The Dubai chocolate pistachio bar is pretty thick and made with Belgium chocolate and pistachio cream. The filling does have the crunchy kataifi mixed in so it's crunchy. The flavor of the milk chocolate and pistachio cream wasn't as sweet as the others I've had before but it's still good. The Dubai chocolate pistachio bar is $20. I put it in the refrigerator to chill before eating it which made it more crunchy. read more

One of our fave candy spots . Yay for promo today! Come by and grab some candy! They have a bunch of new stuff too.

Such a wonderful little candy shop. They had the Swedish candy I have been looking for.

This candy store is amazing because it feels like stepping into a world of pure imagination. Bright colors, endless shelves of sweets, and the smell of sugar instantly lift your mood. There's something for everyone, from classic treats to unique, hard-to-find candies. The friendly staff makes the experience even better by helping you discover new favorites. Every visit feels special, whether you're reliving childhood memories or creating new ones. It's not just a store--it's a place where happiness is always in stock. read more

Love taking my daughter here for the variety she enjoys it so much! We come to down town upland and stop for a sweet treat(: read more

The BEST!! Omg I can't rave enough about how amazing this candy shop is! Right in the heart of downtown upland! They are also opening another location in riverside! Staff is super friendly!

Best candy store ever! We love them! Everyone is so nice and helpful! And the candy has a huge variety!

I love this candy store!! I am so glad their local!! Such a great assortment!! I recommended that you come here for youre sweet tooth! read more

This is located in downtown upland with street parking that is limited. It is easy to find and is a rather small shop. They have some good options like swedish candy, american candy and throwback candy and a lot of imported candy as well as cold soft drinks. Customer service is great, was greeted immediately upon arrival and was helped with any questions. Minimum purchase required for credit cards, i believe it was $5? Or $10? It is on the pricer side for candy. However since it was to be imported and shipped, i understand why its more expensive. Overall, a good place if you want swedish candy and dont want to drive to LA or wait to order it online. read more

Great selection and great customer service! They have an awesome choice of Swedish candy as well!

really disappointed in how bad this place has got. When I first saw it on TikTok about a year ago the sweetest candy was always stocked and fresh. They already charge more than most candy stores charge for the same product but now you can tell the Candies hard and old. $30 a pound for Old hard candies should be against the law. read more

amazing selection! great and kind staff!! loved it!! They were so helpful and the swetish candy selection was PERFECT!!

Everything is super organized and clean, and they have so many unique options especially the Swedish candy, which is hard to find anywhere else. I always end up trying something new every time I go. The staff is really friendly and helpful, but not overbearing. It just feels like a fun, welcoming spot whether you're shopping alone or bringing friends. Highly recommend if you're looking for something different or want to treat yourself. read more

Very nice owner and they had lots of the viral candies in stock, even those bubs & skulls Swedish candies. My kids had a blast trying all the viral goodies. It's a small little shop, but you are surrounded with tons of goodies to choose from, and hard to find goodies. read more

Updating my review from last year! I returned and they have so many more options from last time! I love the addition of Swedish candy and Swedish chocolate as well! My favorite are the banana toffee bubs! And of course they offer the Dubai chocolate bar which was SO GOOD! It's almost half a pound of quality chocolate and the filling...... omg... The woman behind the counter was so friendly and explained the prices to me over again and was so friendly ringing me up and told me about their new rewards program! Entering your phone number you receive points for items in the shop! They were playing some really nice chill music and I really enjoyed the vibe inside of the shop overall. I'm so glad I returned and saw the new items!!! Also forgot to get a picture of the sour gushers I got! The blue ones are SUPER sour but the best ones to try!!! read more

If you get the chance, do yourself a favor and visit this place! As a candy/sweet treat connoisseur, the experience of getting to fill your own bag of candy to your hearts desire is an unmatched joy. My partner and I drove over an hour just to be able to get access to the Swedish Candy selection here and were absolutely hooked after the first bite. My recommendation is to try the Sour Bubble Gum Skulls, mini Sour Pear Bubs, and the Raspberry-Pomegranate Bubs. The texture and flavor is unlike anything we have here in the states. It's genuinely such a treat to be able to experience these! The store owner is almost as sweet as the candy itself. Genuine, helpful, and obviously passionate about her products. I will 100% be coming back to visit in the future! read more

This place is SO COOL!!! Lots of great finds if you're needing a sugar rush! The gal here was so sweet and helpful with a welcoming smile on her face and she happily answered all our questions! I'd heard they had a ton of freeze dried candy and their selection did not disappoint! I'm a sucker for the freeze dried skittles, but we had to try their freeze dried lemonheads, hi-chew and nerd clusters! They even had freeze dried jolly ranchers and now and laters as well. They even have some sugar free options too! Middle section of the store has options to fill your own bag, charged by the pound. Large soda selection and an ice cream section as well. They have some cute novelty gifts available as well, so I was already thinking about gifts for friends and family. Thank you, Uptown Candy Shop! read more

A wonderful place that's local to get your Swedish candy fix! They also have chamoy pickle kits so they're definitely catering to the crowd that loves hype food (me). The staff here are super sweet, too! Next time, I hope they have the French Bon Bon candy ;-) read more

I stumbled into Uptown Candy Shop on my last visit to CA. I really wanted to try some Swedish Candy, but all of the places were located way out in Los Angeles. I was pleasantly surprised to find such a large assortment of Swedish candy plus so many other sweet (and nostalgic) treats! Due to the popular demand of Swedish candy, the prices are higher than you'd typically expect, but I'll gladly pay the higher prices to avoid driving in traffic and paying for gas! The owner is so sweet and welcoming, she's very active on social media to keep customers updated on restocks. I can't wait to visit again!! read more
