Hurray for candy trucks! I was waiting for my husband at Second Beach and walked over the this truck where I saw a group to cyclists buying water. I looked at the sign at all the different types of candy and many of them sounded great! The woman working there offered me a free sample of any of the candy and I tried a mango piece. I didn't find the flavour to be as strong as I like but we decided to get 3 bags for $11 (or $4/bag). I got a bag for friends and I tried the peanut brittle and fizz candy. The bag looks small but you get lots for 100 grams. I liked the fizz candy as it wasn't too fizzy. The peanut brittle was good too and great for crushing and putting on ice cream. Great food truck and location to enjoy during a walk along the seawall. The woman working was really friendly too. Would be great to see more candy trucks! read more

Candy Meister - a blue ice cream truck - Food Trucks Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

See all

Ok so it's really fun to have a candy truck in the city and to be able to try traditional German candies. However, there is no shortage of candy in this city, even organic all-natural dye-free candy. Just look to Whole Foods, Save-on or other bulk foods places around the city and in the GVR. What they do well though is service. How many stores/vendors around this city are giving out free samples? I mean, seriously, do you know of any? I don't. Even places like Kernels and Starbucks don't do it often, and overpriced candy vendors at Granville Island could take some advice from this business. So while my marine life-shaped marshmallows were delicious and cheaper than Butter bakery at only $4, I don't see myself stopping by this truck often as I find it easier to walk into the nearest natural foods store. However, as a person who appreciates good customer service, I will be coming back to buy some product once in a while. Perhaps this business could sell their product in Whole Foods/Choices? Easier access for me!:) read more

Candy Meister - in Stanley Park June 19th - Food Trucks Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

I remember seeing the Candy Meister at the Vancouver Christmas Market but didn't actually try any until a few weeks ago. After a very very successful shopping trip at Anthropologie, (yay for birthday discounts!) I noticed this truck right outside. You can't miss this tall big truck parked on the street where a young gentleman is asking if you'd like to sample some candy. You know, as kids we were told not to accept candy from strangers... But I couldn't say no to a good looking, smiling man (obviously with a German accent) offering free candy. After trying a few I settled on the mulled wine flavour which brought back memories of all that gluhwein during the Christmas Market. I also got a tangy one called green woodruff leaves. Apparently they like to drop it into beer? I won't say no to that! The selection is quite extensive so peruse while you savour your candy. read more

Holy moly this is amazing stuff. I first noticed them at Hawkers Market, and LOVED their marshmallows. Now whenever I find them, I need to buy a bag of marshmallows and there's a very good chance the goodies never make it home to share with husband. They also have a lovely selection of hard candies (all hard candies and the marshmallows are imported from Germany) in such a large variety of flavours, you'll surely find something you like! Plus, they've got samples galore if you're not sure what you feel like - they'll help you find a favourite! You can find them roaming around town, but they're usually a staple at the Christmas Market downtown every year! read more

As someone with a self proclaimed sweet tooth, I'm always on the hunt for the next best sweet remedy to satisfy my craving. Having lived in Europe in my younger years I had experienced hard shell candies in Switzerland but not the German variety. I came across this food truck at a Yelp Elite event at Hawker's market and was surprisingly delighted to try the Gluewine flavour; which transported me back to the Christmas markets back in Schwaban area of Germany. The candies are tasteful, look appetizing and are made in a natural way so guilt-free. Needless to say I'm paying frequent visits to this unique candy shop. read more

Candy Meister makes delicious candy with a variety of crazy good flavours. Whether you're looking for something traditional or exotic, you'll probably find one that suits you. The staff are friendly and patient in answering questions and offering recommendations, and you get to sample candies for free, which is nice, because I wish every candy store would allow you to do that. They've also got gluten free options, and corn free options as well. You have to give them a try at least once. read more

Woo hoo, a candy truck! A German candy truck at that. (The candy is German, not the truck.) The lady in the truck selling the candy was very talkative and friendly. She told us about all the products, many of which are all-natural as well as gluten free, dairy free, and corn free. I'll admit that this did not sound very enticing to me at first. What good is candy if it isn't full of artificial colouring and flavours and sucked dry of everything that makes it taste good? The human race is probably going to be extinct in a few decades because of all the voluntary restrictions people are adding to their diets. We're not going out in a nuclear war or a zombie uprising - we're going to starve ourselves to death. Anyway, we bought candies called Little Fruities, some Peanut Brittle, and Fizz Candy. I'm currently chewing on a Fizz Candy and enjoying its tingling sensation as the carbon dioxide releases from the candy's bubbles making my saliva sizzle. TMI? The best part about all-natural, everything-free candy is that it doesn't upset your stomach like the processed, corporate candy does. So we can eat even more of it without getting sick. Candy Meister is a seasonal business so don't expect to see them in Stanley Park during winter. However, you can still order their product through their website during the off-season to feed your fix. Auf Wiedersehen read more

I love candy more than ANYTHING. When I was recently in Vancouver, I was walking into Stanley Park just as the Candy Meister truck was pulling in. The guy in the truck let me have several samples that I loved and had to buy to bring back to the U.S. You have to try tropical punch! Now that I am slowly making my way through my candy, I am sad because I am almost out. I guess I'm just going to have to order from the website. read more

Let me start off by saying I never take the time to write a review for any person, brand, company, item, etc. Candy Meister is the single exception to my rule. I attended the Vancouver Christmas Market in 2012 with my best friend. I had driven up from Portland for the weekend. My best friend noticed Candy Meister's stand and started reading "gluten free" and "dairy free" on most of their products. Then he noticed a "Soothing Herbal Cough Drop". (I have many food allergies and get severe sore throats now and then. It usually settles when I have several cough drops.) He suggested I try the cough drop, but I was hesitant. I gave in and tried it, and oh boy am I glad that I did!!! The taste was unlike anything I've ever had before..I was instantly in love. It had just the perfect amount of flavor. We ended up buying a few bags. Later that night I had a terrible sore throat. Typically I'd resort to several regular cough drops. Thanks to Candy Meister I only needed one to help me feel better. Once I got back to Portland, I shared my Candy Meister story with several people. I'm pretty sure they thought I was a little crazy for getting so happy over candy cough drops. A month later I placed an online order for a few bags of various flavors. I was over-the-moon happy when I received my package. I followed the company on social media as they grew over the course of a few months to a year. It always excites me to see CM become more popular. I hope there comes a day where every household in the lower mainland has at least one flavor of CM's candies in their home :) I visit BC a few times a year. Before each trip I let Max at CM know ahead of time, so he can get my order ready for me. I'm pretty sure I order 10 or more bags at a time. The customer service I receive from CM truly makes me feel like royalty. Everyone within the company seems to be full of life :) I keep a bag of these cough drops in my car, next to my bed, and in 3 different purses. The cough drops have helped me tremendously a countless amount of times. There is really nothing negative I can say about CM. I just wish they had a candy truck in Portland!!! I hope everyone that crosses path with the CM truck decides to give it a try. Thank you CM, from the bottom of my heart, for sharing such amazing candies with the world. read more

I've seen these guys around town most recently at the Christmas Craft Market (German Market). They have such a cute array of candy and I love the Marshmallows in pastel pink and yellow shaped like Santa Claus. Very good customer service and decent prices. One of my favorite booths at the Christmas Market. read more

I stumbled upon the Candy Meister truck very randomly and I got suckered in by their free samples..of whatever I wanted to try. Needless to say, I left the truck a happy camper with three yummy bags of candy. My favourite from the three I bought was the caramel peanut crunch...so delicious! I finished the whole bag by myself. I definitely recommend trying to hunt them down and tasting the candies for yourself! read more

First stumbled upon the candy keister from an article in Vancity Buzz, and went right ahead to check them out! Needless to say, their candies are sweet (well they are candies after all) but do not have the after-taste of commercially made candies. Despite not being a complete candy junkie, I do love Candy Meister's bonbons! Go check them out! read more
