    Super sweet owner very welcoming I took my client who is on the spectrum, and we were practicing her interactions and social skills. she was super kind and patient with my client as she counted out change to hand the cashier. small place but so cute and so many options.

It's def nostalgic atleast to me it felt like it nice little cool vibes inside and all ! Ice creams were a 10/10 !

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    How much does each pound of candy cost?

    Our “regular bulk” is $14.99/LB Our “Swedish bulk” is $28.00/LB

    I was just wondering if you have the Dubai chocolate bar in store? I noticed it was listed on DoorDash and was hoping to stop in sometime soon to try it!

    We sure do!

    Went here today for their candy demo and was not disappointed! I went with my husband and 2 kids…read moreand it was a blast! I highly recommend it! You have to get tickets in advance, and it's $6/person which is a great price. Went about 15 mins early, which was plenty of time ahead, secured our spot and watched the demo. Jerry was great at explaining everything and he had a mic on so everyone could hear. We were able to watch the pillow cutting too and got to enjoy some warm samples which was heavenly! Once it was finished we were able to mold/shape our own candy canes which was so cool! They gave us a bag too to take it home in so that was nice. We stood in line once the demo was concluded and got our goodies. I went with all the cashiers recommendations and was not disappointed. Got some pink lemonade sour rings, candy blocks, milk chocolate gummy bears and the oh so delicious peanut butter milk chocolate squares. Those were sooooo good! Taste better than a Reese's cup! Everything was so good and everyone was so nice! Will definitely be back!

It's not a very big store, 2 1/2 small rooms with a variety of different candies some made in house, some are commercially shipped in. We stopped on February 13 the day before Valentine's Day, and they were quite busy, no surprise. We were in the store for about half an hour, and picked up some of their famous homemade candy cane pillow candies

They have a wide variety of candies, including British and some chamoy/tajin offerings. I found some interesting versions of already beloved candy. What caused me to rate them a three is the massive bulk candy wall which was $16.95/lb. I chose a few options to sample with the intention of returning if the options were fresh. I got four types - green paint ball, buttered popcorn jelly belly, cherry strips, and blue raspberry strips. THEY ARE ALL STALE, some so stale they're inedible. This tells me that the store doesn't refresh the bins or clean them much. For that reason alone, I'd find my candy elsewhere.

    *Note: TDLR at the end of the review…read more Strawberry Balsamic Ice Cream: 7/10 It doesn't taste artificially sweet at all. I definitely taste the strawberry! I didn't really taste balsamic, but I did get hints of a pepper like texture/taste. Not quite sure what the intent with this ice cream was, but I enjoyed it even though the balsamic flavor wasn't really there. Service: 8/10 I came in about an 45mins before closing and I got a warm welcome in. They were pre-closing so I just selected an ice cream and they were quick to ring me up. Ambiance: 6/10 Nothin special. I came in at closing time. The shop was clean, well lit, and easy to access. Parking is probably hard to find during the day or on the weekends. TDLR: They don't do samples. Strawberry balsamic is good. Slight peppery hints. Don't be scared by the name. Can't really taste the balsamic. Parking availability depends on what time you come during the day.

I heard alot of good things and everyone said I had to try the flavor Debbie. I was a bit skeptical--but wow, the sweetness balance is perfect and it just melts in your mouth. I finished my whole cup. We were so stuffed from dinner that we only tried the ice cream, so we'll definitely have to come back to try all the other sweets they had on display. The ambiance is adorable, with a small-town vibe that makes you want to linger and chat which we did! If you're in the mood for a cute, cozy treat, this is a must-visit.
