Their ice cream ($5 kids, $6 single scoop, $9 double) was some of the best we've had around SLO and the gelato ($6 small) was the authentic Italian deal! We tried the butter pecan and honey churro ice cream and the mista gelato and all three were heavenly. The best part was our server who was so friendly, so helpful, and just had the best attitude. He made the visit even more memorable. The candy all looked fresh and fun - amazing considering the extensive selection of gourmet artisan truffles to vintage candy brands of childhood. This is no tourist trap. Locals and visitors, check it out when you're headed to the Cayucos pier.

They're known for their signature hand stretched taffy. They have around 18 flavors! Sold in 3 sizes. 1/4 lb $3.25, 1/2 lb $6.50, and 1lb $13. But they aren't a one trick pony. They also sell home made.. fudge (in Over 6 flavors) , cinnamon rolls, caramel apples, cotton candy, peanut brittle , chocolates (8 varieties); and hard candy, lollipops, soft serve and a full coffee menu. The taffy keeps me coming back. The taffy has a melt in your mouth creaminess after the first chew. Nice balanced caramelized sugar and butter base. But on hot or super cold days, the taffy can get that sticky stretch. Ok now to the ordering protocol. There are two walkup windows, two separate lines. The day I dropped in, folks were making up lines. Line cutting, very chaotic. And near customer taffy raging. Like these folks need more sugar. The cashier was in a bit of a frazzled mood. Not grumpy but exhausted. I really can't blame her. The crowd was ruff and unruly. Demanding. But she continued to provide on point customer and kept the kind moving. Kudus to her for her customer service skills.

This review is for the gelato - I haven't bought anything else in store…read more I was actually a fan of the gelato and the person who served me the gelato was great. He let me try a few options and gave recommendations based on what I was in the mood for. He seemed very knowledgeable and I really enjoyed the tiramisu ice cream the most. It is on the pricey side. At the time of this review $6 for a small and $7 for a medium, but I would probably get it again one day for the quality.

I totally understand that it's annoying to have to move when you're in the middle of something so I'm not like saying anything really bad about that. It's just like my experience when I walked in. And the place is like really whimsical like there's the sugary pops lollipops were probably the cheapest thing maybe that I saw on there and there's around the world type bags which my friend thought that it would be candy from around the world stuffed in there kind of like mystery bags I'm pretty sure her answer was that it was for display, but like I wasn't really listening because I was distracted by the Willy Wonka movie with the theater chairs and it's just like a really cool corner in there But everything was expensive for sure. None our budget for the end of the trip spare change. There was ice cream options and I think there were some Harry Potter themed things which were pretty cool

(Which is saying something, because between Morro Bay, Cayucos, and Cambria there are quite a few candy shops) Their fudge is unparalleled. While the harmony ice cream is not my favorite, I very much appreciate the fact that they have local ice cream and the portions were a good size at a good price. The staff is exceptionally nice, especially the owner who has been working most of the times we have been there. She's one of those people who is so genuine that you can instantly feel it. I also wanted to add an additional comment kind of in response to a one star review that was left from an exchange that happened while I was eating ice cream just outside the shop. A family with some kids were in the shop and they came out and went to leave but one of the little boys ran up to this cute giant teddy bear serving as the shop's "mascot" and punched it right in the face. It was a slower part of the day business-wise and so the owner saw the kids do this and went outside to ask why the kid punched her bear. The comment claims that she yelled at them, but this was simply not true. She did raise her voice, but it was because the family had already made it to the end of the block. She didn't say anything rude, she just asked why he did that and said it wasn't very nice. (This may be my personal opinion, but if your kid likes to punch animals, even if they're fake, I'd be seriously worried about what kind of person this kid will become.) A few minutes later the woman with the child came back and started yelling (yes this was yelling) at the employee for treating them like it. Never once did she apologize. Never once did she have her kid apologize. She just let her kid learn that yelling at employees was the correct response for being called out on something you did. I cannot believe the nerve of some people. After she "karen-ed" at the owner and left, I went inside to reassure the owner that she was in the right and hopefully offer some encouragement (at least as much as a stranger customer could). I could tell she was deeply bothered by the exchange with the Karen, and I don't blame her. It sucks when your words are twisted against you and your business integrity is questioned. Sending all of my positive energy and vibes to this business and the employees there. Wishing you a Karen-free rest of your summer! Tl;dr: this candy shop is the best on the central coast. Don't pay attention to the few negative reviews, they're from Karens.

They have the usual candy selections of taffy and candies, but the star of the store was their homemade fudge which the owner makes herself daily.

All the flavors they had that day looked good, and I ended up getting the strawberry swirl. Can't go wrong with strawberries and chocolate. Plus, I wanted something light and fruity to go with the decadence of the brownie. I added crumbled waffle cones, chocolate fudge, and chocolate chips. And wow, it was so delicious! The strawberry swirl ice cream was very creamy, which I assume is an attribute of sheep's milk. The brownie was chocolaty and fudgy. And the toppings added a nice crunch. Service was really friendly. The lady who assisted me was very nice and made my sundae quickly. She was the only one there, so I appreciate her speediness. The space itself is very clean. You can sit inside, and there's plenty of tables outside The price was around $11, which is a great deal imo. With the death of SLO's favorite Doc Burnstein's, I often wondered what could take its place. Negranti Creamery is definitely a contender.

We both ordered affogatos, and I liked that they let you choose any ice cream flavor to pair with the espresso. I went with vanilla, and my girlfriend chose the black coffee chip. Both were excellent. They give you a generous portion of ice cream relative to the espresso, which made it feel like a solid value. The espresso was made fresh and came out quickly, and everything tasted great. The staff was friendly and efficient, and we were in and out without any issues. They also had a really good selection of ice cream, and nothing seemed to be out of stock, which is always a plus. The shop itself was clean and well kept. Overall, I would definitely recommend stopping here, especially if you're at SLO Ranch. I'll be back to try more flavors next time.
