Stopped in here after dinner to grab a chocolate. Valentine's Day has just passed and their boxes…read moreof chocolates were discounted. I am not a chocolate lover but do like a really good piece every so often. Always up for a bargain, bought a small box. The chocolate is excellent. Service was great and they were helpful in explaining the types of chocolate. Ambiance is any chocolate lover's dream! This is the place to go if you like chocolate.

I have purchased truffles, bars, buttons, and ice cream bars numerous times from each location…read moreduring the past seven years. The service has always been courteous and the chocolate delicious. Yesterday I visited the website, then a retail store. After eating a few pieces of a dark chocolate bar with raspberry filling, the taste did not match that of previous purchases. Today after reading the ingredients on two remaining bars--milk chocolate with peanut butter and dark chocolate with sea salt caramel--I was horrified to discover corn syrup, modified corn starch, xantham gum, anhydrous milk fat, hydrogenated oil, and artificial flavors. The only item with less alarming ingredients was a white chocolate snowflake. Of course, white chocolate is not chocolate. Their version contains sugar, cocoa butter, milk, nonfat dry milk, soy lecithin, and vanilla. The bars, previously over two ounces each, now weigh 1.85 oz. At the regular price of $3.79, that is over $30 per pound. The real eye-opener is a six-ounce box of chocolate covered caramels. At $27.99, that works out to over $74.00 per pound! Now I also wonder if their chocolate is lab grown. I don't know, but I do know that I will look for chocolate elsewhere.

They had a big selection; maybe I chose the wrong thing because I was a little disappointed. I…read morechose a small Oregon sampler- four chocolates with regional flavors. The marionberry chocolate had good flavor, very berry like. But I didn't like the chocolate outside too much, just the inside, because it didn't taste terribly cocoa-y. I didn't much care for the coffee flavored (truffle?) chocolate- they were labeled chocolates but filled like truffles. They were also enormous. Since I wasn't in love, I didn't try the other two, but that should give you a decent idea of my opinion of the taste. Still points for options, friendliness, and variety!

Great selection of milk and dark chocolates...delicious!…read more So many options, I wanted samples all of the chocolates!

Sweet Life, to me, is like coming home…read more While growing up, we'd come here after pretty much anything positive to celebrate. Then, for years it was one of two places I both wanted to go to and take people to experience each time I visited. Now that I live here again, I strangely only get delivery. However, even saying the name brings on a childish grin (and possibly happy tears) to my eyes! It doesn't hurt that their key lime tart is my favorite dessert not called sorbet of all time. Oh, yes, they also have sorbet, and while it isn't on Wanderlust's level, I don't care. They execute every single thing with a level of precision and care that you just don't see often, and somehow do it in a way that feels welcoming! Thank you, Sweet Life, thank you.

Can't believe this is a patisserie in the States. They have so many beautiful and delicate sweets…read morethat could totally be seen in a patisserie in Tokyo or Hong Kong. I got the tiramisu and two pieces of chocolate. The tiramisu was a bit different from the ones made with ladyfingers. I think this one was made with chiffon cake instead, so the texture was a little bit dry for my liking. The flavor was good though, more on the chocolate side. I liked the earl grey chocolate, but man, I couldn't stand the little yellow dots on it. They reminded me of those little eggs from some insect that lays eggs on your clothes in the summer. The earl grey filling was nice, smooth and citrusy. The passionfruit chocolate was really cute, kinda had the look of a quail egg shell. The filling was a bit more sour compared to the earl grey one. But in general both chocolates were quite similar. My partner had the zucchini pound cake, and he loved it a lot. I don't know much about Eugene, as we were just passing through on our road trip, but I'd definitely recommend people come here when they visit Eugene.

She was wearing a mask, so I presume she wasn't feeling good. She was friendly when we checked out, but the mask made it difficult to hear and understand her, so we had to ask for clarification a couple of times. Because of the mask, we elected to only buy pre-packaged chocolate and nothing fresh, just because we weren't certain how sick the employee was, and I have been sick myself more often lately, and I didn't want to have it happen again. The store is small but always clean and easy to navigate. Would I return? Yes. We've been coming to this location for a number of years, and will continue to do so. It's a nice location that isn't out of the way. Review 15 of 2025

Caramels, gummy, chocolate, sour, etc. you name it, they have it. The lady working in there was so kind and cheerful. She was very sweet!

I highly recommend a stop by Candy Tyme!

I had the intentions just to browse until I saw their cheese cake brownie. I had no idea what Gianni's had on their dessert menu and I didn't care to wait and find out. I chose that before we went to eat, and we had dinner I dug in and it was love at first bite. Since I'm not a coffee drinker I never step into small cafes on my own or look around to check out pastries, but I'm glad I made the exception here.

Sweet Life Petite is the mini-version of the original Sweet Life. This one's located on Campus…read more(well, not technically on campus but like right by campus). It is indeed pretty small; there's an "in" door and an "out" door so and since the line can form pretty quickly. They're pretty fast though, so even if the line is close to the door (which it was once when I visited) you'll still be out within about 10 minutes or fewer. One of my favorite things from Sweet Life are their morning pastries--specifically, their cinnamon roll and the lemon cream bun. Both are amazing, and whilst the cinnamon roll is my personal favorite, if you have to choose get the lemon cream bun. It's different from something you've tried before; you can't get one of these everywhere and it's amazing. Their tiramisu is good too, and the some of their other cakes. Check out their specials--there's always something good to choose from. This location has no dedicated parking, just a few spots on the street (shared with Prince Puckler's, the pizza place, and other businesses around). There's a lot of outdoor seating, nice for warm summer evenings.

Larsen's Candies is no longer open at this location but don't despair, they still exist and sell…read moretheir food at fairs, such as ScanFest in Junction City. I believe I've also seen their candy at stores like Market of Choice. For a few years this was my go-to place for caramel apples, so I was sad to see them close. They were a great local alternative to something like Rocky Mountain, and their candy and chocolates were better, in my opinion, than the somewhat overrated Euphoria. Give them a try if you catch their cart somewhere!

Absolutely, without a doubt, the BEST Candy in all of Oregon. I love sea foam (aka honeycomb) candy…read moreand this place makes the very best. This candy is very hard to make properly as the sea foam/honeycomb, if not done right, will harden into a rock and not be light and airy like it should. I have never gotten a bad batch here at Larsen's. BTW, Larson's Candy has not been in this location for years but you can call them and they will deliver it to one of several stores in the Eugene/Springfield area; this is what I do. They primarily sell at fairs and festivals. I know they are always at the Lane County Fair in the summer.
