    As you enter this store you are taken to a long ago time when candy was a penny. From the opening…read moreof the squeaky door to the sound of the creaky floor this place looks, sounds and even smells like an old time candy store. While the candy isn't a penny anymore some of the candy really took me back. Candy Cigarettes anyone? I walked out with some really, REALLY hot chocolate (hot as in spice) and some good old fashioned Bottle Caps. I usually get something from the case but today I stuck with the shelves. They also have toys in the back room. They have trademarked themselves as the "World's Okayest Candy Store". Gotta love that sense of humor as much as the candy.

    Went into Sweet Things because my family lived in Ste.Genevieve for 35 years. But moved away and…read morehave been gone for 10 years So my kids grew up going into Sweet Things their whole life. So naturally we wanted to bring the grandkids here while we were visiting. The previous owner was Teri and she made it enjoyable to shop there. She would always engage her customers in conversation. Sweet Sweet Lady! The new owner is the polar opposite She was the rudest person I have met in Sainte Genevieve so far. OMG ! We tried talking with her and she literally just stared at us. So Rude. Everyone in the group noticed We kicked ourselves for spending our money in there. The candy is Stale, Marshmallow candy was rock hard, Just about broke a tooth on the Malt Balls SAD! Think twice before going in here She is not appreciative of the customers that come in and spend money in the shop. In reading all of the negative comments about Sweet Things it looks like everyone who goes in and gives negative reviews have dealt with the Owner that runs and operates this business, so it is her they are reviewing as being poor customer service.
