He's 8 years old and his eyes couldn't have gotten any bigger. I mean, when I finally let him loose and said, "Grab a bucket and fill it with all the gummies you want." He didn't know where to start. So of course, I had to help him! lol It is pretty pricey, so be careful what you buy. I have never been in this place before, so I wanted to try different chocolates, rice crispy treat bars, and different flavor gummy bears. Do yourself a favor and don't buy those rice crispy treat bars, they're gross. If you go to the back of the store where the giant gummy bear is, just get the bucket/jar and fill it up! It's worth it if you love candy. I plan on going back one more time before I head home to Hawaii; when I do I'm going straight for those gummy section. I might go back and get some of the chocolates, or spend a little extra on some chocolate truffles...it's just really expensive. I'll update this review with prices when I go back this week. But overall, it was a nice experience.

It used to be such an elegant and beautiful candy store. What happened?…read more The shelves are bare, the chocolate candy cabinets empty. What's worse are the prices.

I found myself surrounded with sights and sounds that brought out my inner sugar crazed youth; it even made me giddy with excitement. I love the sounds of a sno-cone being made! The walls are covered with shelves of every sugary delight you can imagine. There is such a wide variety and assortment of different flavors; everyone is sure to find something to satisfy their cravings. I'm especially a big fan of the Jelly Belly jelly bean display that awaits my next visit. There's an assortment of truffles and other chocolates found in a glass case behind the cash register. I would've tried them all however, I was afraid I would gain 50 pounds before even walking out the door. The artwork on the wall adds to the flair of this candy shop. I almost forgot to mention the ice cream case. With a wide variety of flavors everyone is sure to find something that will appeal to their sweet tooth. If you're not in the mood for a cone, they offer a prefix case of ice cream. They even have fresh store made candy and caramel apples. I'm going back for the frozen chocolate banana. They even have sugar-free options available in the ice cream and chocolates. This is going to be a place I've got to frequent more often. Oh, and one of my personal favorites the 3 foot pixi stix! I'm certain, as this business grows so will the selection to tempt my taste buds!

This one was smaller, but still packed with fun. The kids absolutely loved it--they went crazy over all the candy options! Now let's talk about the price...because baby, candy added up QUICK. For three kids and my little bit of Swedish fish, I spent $62, which is a bit much for candy in my opinion. But hey, it was spring break, and they had a great time, so I let it slide. The associate working there was very patient with the kids,--it was a lot going on with all that excitement and sugar overload! I didn't grab any pictures, but overall it was a fun stop and a great treat for the kids. Rating: 4/5

So glad they still had an impressively wide selection at the end of the festival as many venders ran out. The Giant Peanut Butter Cup is very decadent with rich dark chocolate and creamy peanut butter. Just a couple of bites was more than satisfying and paced myself and able to devour the cup over a few days. The Dark Chocolate Covered Mint Oreo was delicious and my pick over the Dark Chocolate Covered Oreo, which didn't taste that different from a normal Oreo. Of the truffles, the Raspberry and Dark Chocolate Ganache were my favorites. The Hazelnut truffle was fun to try and reminded me of a Ferraro Rocher hazelnut truffles. I miss seeing Capital Candy Jar at the farmer's markets as many have shut down and excited to see them at more festivals and events post pandemic. Looking forward to seeing them again and coming back for more delicious sweet treats!

Lots of unique candies, Washington landmark Oreos, political party Oreos, ice cream and more. I snagged a few things to send my family for Christmas and can't wait for them to receive them!

I was looking primarily for holiday things this time, and they had several trees full of ornaments, holiday housewares, shelf decorations, and the like. They also stock children's books, T-shirts and other local and Bay-themed souvenirs. I purchased a Maryland tin, a gift bag, & some snowflake ornaments. They also have some unique craft items I have not seen elsewhere, like bowl cozies (for when you heat a bowl in the microwave) and snap bags to tuck in your bag or purse. All of the prices are very reasonable. Check it out, and buy local.
