I recently visited Sweet Shoppe in Short Pump for the second time and unfortunately, my experience…read morewas just as disappointing as my first visit. While the candy selection is still splendid and delicious; the atmosphere remains unpleasant. The store continues to be run mostly by children, with their friends hanging around being rude and disruptive. It's clear that there is a lack of adult supervision, which really detracts from the overall shopping experience. I felt uncomfortable. The yute (in my Joe Pesci voice in my Cousin Vinny, lol You all don't know anything about that). I was hanging out with one of @we_hungryaf bloggers, who was also taken aback by the confusion. Despite the delicious candy, I cannot recommend Sweet Shoppe due to the negative atmosphere. I love their peanut brittle, but both times I went, the yute asked me with a tone that indicated (in my opinion) something was wrong with it. He asked me if I was sure I wanted that Peanut Brittle, the one made with honey. if you're looking for a great selection of sweets in the RVA area, there are plenty of other options that offer a more pleasant shopping experience. #rvafoodie #yelpelite #candysweets #sweettoothfix #candyaddict #sugarhigh

Such a fun stop in Williamsburg! Wythe Candy & Gourmet Shop is packed with candy--everything from…read morenostalgic/retro favorites to sugar-free options, plus plenty of chocolate and other treats. It's the kind of store where you can spend a while just looking around. The service was friendly and helpful. I had a chocolate-covered strawberry and picked up a bottle of peach iced tea made by Harney & Sons for Colonial Williamsburg. Even the bottle is charming--the design uses an 18th-century botanical illustration from the Colonial Williamsburg archives. The tea was delicious and felt like the perfect Williamsburg find. It was a scorcher outside that day, or I would have bought more chocolate to take home! Super cute shop and definitely worth popping into while exploring Williamsburg.

I was lucky to find a parallel parking spot right in front of the building. This is a boutique shop, so they offer curated chocolates. I visited shortly before Christmas and my mom purchased sweets shaped like reindeer for my cousin's kids. Both of them tore into them immediately and basically inhaled them, so I'd say they liked them. I also bought a few different chocolates to try, and they were great. Prices match the quality, so they're not the cheapest option.

I've just today had a terrible experience in this store. A store I've shopped in many times in the…read moreyears I've lived here. I bought this tin of Cavendish and Harvey Sour Cherry Drops last week. And just like you when I got home I put the tin up and tossed the receipt. When I opened the tin yesterday I found the seal had been punctured. I pulled the seal and the Drops had all melted together as you can see in the pictures. My wife, ever concerned for my well-being, advised me to not eat the candy. So I returned to the store, ready for an exchange or refund. They REFUSED to do either. Oh they had their reasons, number 1 among them was I didn't have my receipt. The store manager could not reach the owner whom I offered to talk to, or I could come back some other time and maybe catch up with the owner. So I won't tell you not to shop there, times are difficult for everyone these days. But I will not shop there again and when I need a lemon drop for a long car ride I'll make do with a bag of them from Walmart or CVS. There just sugar and flavor after all. But I will suggest that you look closely at every purchase you might make from that store and don't toss your receipt until you do. Or maybe they'll treat you better than they treated me. Or maybe not. You won't know until it's too late, It's a crap shoot. No place to post the pictures, but it's ycuky

They actually have quite a large collection of candies, chocolates and sweets. It can get…read moreoverwhelming if you have no idea what you want, but I do think there's something there for everyone. They have a pretty large shop, and it can get crowded depending on when you go in there. They usually have a lot of customers coming in and going. Their prices are a bit steep for my budget, but I'm not sure if that's because of the current state of the economy or if that's normal for them. I stopped by intending to purchase some chocolates for a friend who loves chocolate, but I just couldn't find anything in my budget. If you have the money, though, they are definitely a convenient one-stop shop for your chocolate needs! I can see the appeal and would encourage people to go in and browse. There might be something for you in there.

Honestly, I cannot say enough good things about this family run farm that raises pigs, chickens and…read morecows on organic pasture. They also do a cow share program where you can buy into their herd of Jerseys and get fresh, unprocessed milk. You just pay a one time fee for the share in the cow/herd and then a monthly fee for boarding and feed. It's a wonderful system, since they have many different local delivery sites. They also do farm tours regularly and welcome questions about their farming practices. A truly transparent model of food supply that you just can't find anywhere else, IMO. I am so grateful to be local to this wonderful family and to be able to patronize their wonderful agricultural enterprise.
