    Open while the stay at home is in place! Looking for a sugar fix? In need of candy, ice cream, or a sweet / cute gift? This is a great place to grab and go or phone in your order. They even have curbside pick up! Today's visit was not planned. We were driving by and noticed it was open. We decided to pop in to support this local business. It was similar to my first visit but the hours have been modified due to the pandemic and everyone (myself and bf included) were masked up. There were also signs on the door with social distancing and safety protocols. We ended up with a large size candy bag ($8.00) which I filled with Sunkist candies and taffy. Small bags were $6.00. When I went to pay, I received a small adorable "AusSam" reusable bag that they were giving away for their 1 year anniversary. Service was warm and friendly. This was a fun visit and a nice break during this time of the "sheltering in place." The grocery store, Target, and home improvement stores can get old... Keeping it short and "sweet." Don't let the unassuming storefront fool you. Behind the doors lies lies an adorable and well-decorated candy store with friendly and personable owners. Located in the heart of old town GH, this candy store is a great addition to the area and community. It has an old fashioned vibe and was clean and well organized. A large assortment of candies and a little selection of drinks were available for purchase. It was a fun store to pop into. I didn't buy anything this time around so based solely on the friendly owners and the store presentation, solid 5 stars.

    AusSam is awesome! Sweetest owners, really helpful and just happy to help. Fun place to bring kids for a quick treat. Not many candy shops to go to anymore and this place brings back such a sweet nostalgia... located in Granada Hills where all the cute shops are up and coming. Wonderful addition! They have bags you can fill up for $8 bucks - as much as you can for the small. I believe $10 for the large...Pretty cool. I'm a fan of the idea and you can also pick from international candies to old school. Great for people with a sweet tooth! Glad to have stumbled in and will keep this place in mind when I'm bringing out some of my nieces and nephews.

    Another delightful family owned addition along Old Granada Village. My daughter attends Mathnasium which is right next door and we have been patiently waiting for this shop to open. Today was our day to walk in and see the types of candies and treats they sell. They have a wide variety of candy choices to satisfy any age. You have the choice of buying in bulk ( large bags $8 or small bags $6 and you) or buying items individually. There is also specialty drinks and ice cream treats. I am looking forward to see what offers the business has (ie rewards program) and seeing it grow! Welcome to Granada Hills AusSam Candy!

    Absolutely adorable candy shop!!

    Go! Just Go! The most adorable candy shop and right in our little Old Granada Hills. Every type of candy that you can think of, plus a few more! Candy from around the world and many throwbacks! The owner's husband was at the helm and couldn't have been any more pleasant! Kind and helpful. Support our local businesses!

    Necco wafers and Violet candy

    I've been meaning to visit AusSam since I haven't been to a proper candy shop since the early 1970s in NY. I hoped that they stocked Necco wafers and Violet candy (childhood favorites) and sure enough, they have both! The store is immaculate, their prices reasonable and the owners are helpful and friendly. They even have homemade dog treats! I'll be back!

    Such a cute little store! I love the variety and the old school candies! It's a blast from the past & I wish them lots of luck! Please go! Go buy candy today!

    Do you have sour belts?? What flavors?

    Yes, we have sour belts in stock. We have packages of the original Sour Power Belts, Rip Rolls, and Airhead Extremes.

    Do u carry imported candies and chocolates, thanks?

    It's not my store, but I think I saw candy from Japan, Mexico, Thailand, Germany, Australia, Switzerland, England. Hope this helps! 😁

I placed the blue Dogders-themed Sho-mochi back on the shelf, promising I'd return soon with ransom money. I never break a promise. A week later, I walked in with a $10 bill and walked out with $3.50 worth of change shuffling in my back pocket. Shohei and I are skipping town. I took the train to a stop far from covetous eyes. I devoured the 1st mochi street side, liberating smooth white chocolate ganache from its stretchy mochi enclosure. Then I ate another one. Was it worth the two trips and the odd feeling of handling paper bills? Sure, because long before Shohei, I've loved Fugetsu Do. Korey's Chocolate mochi is my all-star, named after the founder's great grandson. Years ago, Korey's dad, Brian Kito, was at the Cherry Blossom Festival in Monterey Park, demonstrating how to make mochi. He told us he created this treat because his son likes chocolate. I was hooked. I usually buy their confectionery at the local Mitsuwa or Marukai. It's inspiring, though, to see this shop in real life, standing on First St. as the oldest business still operating in Little Tokyo. Shuttered during WWII when the Kito family was incarcerated, it was rebuilt from scratch when they returned with no money or access to their equipment. The founder's son Roy and his wife Kazuko slept at the Buddist temple while he worked as a waiter to save up. With determination and community support, Fugetsu Do reopened for business in 1946. It is now a piece of living history, a testament to human hope and mochi, stretched and pounded, only to come out stronger on the other side.

I don't think there is necessarily any single flavor that is a must-try (though I haven't tried a lot), so you could be best just choosing flavors that naturally appeal to you. I also don't have a tier list because there's somewhat of a language barrier and a lack of description when perusing their selection. You're best pointing to something that looks cute and just hoping for the best. Also, since there's usually a line to order, you feel bad when you're holding up people. Luckily, I think most of their mochis taste good due to their delicate mochi exterior and well-balanced bean paste fillings. They even have some that are filled with chocolate or other things, and some topped or mixed with fresh fruit. I generally hate red bean desserts, but I don't mind these because the paste is super smooth. The paste is maybe a tad sweeter than I'd hope for, but perfect for the average taster. Parking is pretty annoying since this area is popular. Fresh mochi really will not keep well, and are very prone to degradation, so they will only last a couple days after purchase. Honestly, this type of dessert is not exactly a thing that you'd crave for, but more of a cute, quirky enjoyment that we should continue to support just to keep it in circulation.

You can literally take your time walking around and pick whatever catches your eye. They give you little white shovels to scoop the candy into your bag, and then your bag is weighed at checkout, so you pay based on how much you get. Just be careful because it is VERY easy to fill up your bag, especially when you want to try things you've never had before. I have a few favorites, and I definitely recommend coming here if you want to try something different. I also like that you can collect points and get money off once you accumulate enough. The Studio City location on Ventura is in a great area with other dessert spots nearby, so you can definitely make a little treat run out of it. I would bring friends or guests here, and if I had kids, I would absolutely bring them too. I definitely recommend KANDI if you love candy. Just know that once you start scooping, it can be very easy to go through an entire bag by yourself!
