Forget Sees this place is the real deal. The shop is in the middle of the store. Delicious! Service was great we even got a sample.

A cute little candy story on Riverside Blvd. You can't help but support them. The next time you want to go to See's Candies, consider checking out a local Sacramento small business instead. The interior is a bit dark, but they have a huge deli case full of delicious chocolates for purchase. So many different types of truffles, bars, and other delicacies. I especially love the chocolate covered potato chips! You can also see that they're trying to keep up with the trends - Funko pops and beanie babies are arranged on one side of the establishment. The cashier was so sweet, no pun intended, and helpful. I hope they stay in business! read more

Kobasic's Candies - Peanut brittle - Candy Stores Near Me - Sacramento, California

A hidden gem in Sacramento for chocolate lovers. The store is family owned and run, and they get business through word of mouth only. So it shouldn't be surprising that the interior of their store looks a bit dated and not exactly Instagram worthy. They're focused on making good chocolate. Still, I was charmed by the unique experience of choosing a box of custom chocolates and getting selection advice from the daughter of the man who made those chocolates. The chocolates were placed in a beautiful flowered box and tied with gold ribbon. And the price? $10 for 8 pieces. If that wasn't already enticing enough for you... they let you choose a free sample for yourself as well. I'll definitely be back! read more

My husband was sick for over 14 days after eating the MOLDED candies at Kobasics. It was quite scary as he couldn't hold food down this ordeal lasted two weeks. He ate the chocolate kruffle, cherry kruffle, maple pecan caramel, walnut caramel and lemon kruffle. read more

Chocolates are so delicious. Can't stop thinking about the caramel ones too :) really melts in your mouth fresh! Haven't finished trying all of them but couldn't resist posting a review because it's that good! read more

Kobasic's Candies - Candy Stores Near Me - Sacramento, California

Local delicious chocolates. Have fun and try all the flavors. Lots of caramels and kruffles. .

Great chocolate varieties and awesome customer service. I had a conversation with the owner/chocolatier (sp). Delightful.

Kobasic's is the best. We used to live several blocks away and would frequent this shop for the caramels and amazing assortment of peanut butter chocolates. I stopped by yesterday for the first time since we moved away and was happy to find that nothing has changed. Delightful people and amazing candies. Support small / local businesses like Kobasic's! read more

Kobasic's is more than a confectionery shop - it is a legend! Truly the best chocolate of all time. It saddens me how few people know about this local, family-owned establishment, and waste their money on inferior products. It's not cheap - but you get what you pay for. And what you pay for is the best candy in the world, for a bargain! I only go a few times each year, but every time I go I know that whatever I buy there will be absolutely delicious. read more

This is a hidden gem! It's in an unassuming area and storefront but wow the chocolate! I loved it and this is coming from a diehard Sees Candies person! I tried the balsamic truffle and the pomegranate one and they were both excellent! The service was friendly too and they sell other stuff like birthday cards. I also couldn't believe the prices. I got 2 candies for only $2, usually I pay that or more at other candie stores. I think I have found a new chocolate place other than See's where I can buy chocolate as gifts (and for myself)! read more

Awesome local chocolate shop that's better than Sees. Yeah I said it. They have balsamic vinegar chocolate, cinnamon cayenne, coconut cayenne - bunch of weird stuff that tastes really good. You will always find cool chocolate here. It's about $1.25 a chocolate but sold by weight. Don't do what I do and let ADHD take over and leave this in your car in this heat. Fancy chocolate ruined. Just Gods way of saying I need to buy more chocolate. read more

I adore good chocolate and Kobasic's Candies provides quality chocolates. This is a family run business that understands how to make awesome candy. The family is always friendly and polite as they fill my order. I make my monthly visit to get my chocolate fix. I have several friends that ask for Kobasic Candies for their birthdays. It is well worth the visit. read more

The most well kept secret in Sacramento.If you know, you know, it's such a great shop. Everything feels like it just came out of the kitchen from your grandparents' house.. Brings back great core memories. The ladies that work there are so kind and considerate and patient when you're ordering.. They're also very knowledgeable about ingredients. You definitely won't be disappointed. read more

Terrible customer service - sarcastic and rude when I just inquired if they will be making more peanut brittle before Christmas.

Stumbled upon this by accident. Had to try. Dark chocolate my favorite. Worth the drive for me from Fair Oaks. They have so many flavors it is hard to decide which to try and buy. read more

Wonderful chocolate! Great variety and freshly made. Highly recommended! If you haven't been there, it's well worth a visit.

This place is amazing!! The chocolate is delicious! 10000/10!! My personal favorite is their marshmallow chocolates. Yum!! The ladies working here are amazing!! They always greet us with a smile & are just so welcoming! We love this place! We been coming here for the past 4 years and we will keep coming back!! Definitely a hidden Gem!! read more

Really nice people. They got me good when they always offer a chocolate for the road when I pick up a box in person. Their rice crispy peanut butter candies are the best. read more

As much as I wanted to like this old-timey chocolate shop, I didn't enjoy any of the chocolates that I chose here. I was most looking forward to trying the key lime kruffle (truffle w/ a "K" because of the chocolate shop name), but the lime flavor came off too strong and sour and didn't really complement well with the white chocolate. I tried a wine kruffle (if I remember right it was a Zinfandel one?); tasted like straight booze and I would rather just drink the wine itself lol (but I guess these wine kruffles could make a good gimmick gift for wine lovers? There, an added star to the rating.). The caramel filling in the chocolate-covered caramels was way too gelatinous, thick, and chewy for my liking (reminded me of gumdrops/Dots candy consistency). Sticking-to-teeth sadness. Eh, not one of the local chocolate shops that I'd readily go back to, but I suppose this shop is still worth checking out if you're not too picky with chocolate and are still curious about the chocolate collection here. read more

I've been here several times now and only found out about it a few months ago from the pandemic (I have a lot more free time). The candies here are great and they are made in house. My favorite is the peanut butter one. I can eat a whole box of those. I did buy several boxes of candy here as birthday gifts and for myself to binge on so that says a lot about how good they are. They also have a bunch of treats for sale such as chocolate covered chips and marshmallow candies. It is pretty hidden and in a random place of town, but parking was never an issue when I went here. Service has always been nice and they usually always give one free sample with a purchase. My guess is you have to spend a certain amount to get it maybe (not to sure). Overall, my go to chocolate shop for now. I WILL BE BACK. read more

We just stopped by for holiday fillers and bought a bunch of chocolates! And to our surprise they had caramel covered marshmallows and they were only $1.50 I think. We came home and I'm blown away how delicious they were!!! The caramel was perfect texture and the marshmallows melted in our mouths. Definitely recommend! read more

HAVE AGAIN: Very interesting candies, caramels and Kruffles. Tried about 10 different ones and most were very good. Great service. Very odd shop inside. read more

Kruffles are Kobasic version of Truffles - yummy chocolates with delicious creamy centers! Treat yourself soon! read more

A little over a week ago my boyfriend surprised me with some Kruffles wrapped in a beautiful hot pink bow, my favorite color and Brittles. In Forest Gump's words, "My momma says life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get." He picked out 7 different varieties of chocolates, I loved the Maple Caramel with Chocolate, just wow and the delicious White Chocolates! The Coconut Chocolate was alright. The Orange Chocolates and Spicy Chocolates I unfortunately didn't like. The Cashew Coconut Brittle was just amazing mm, as well as of course the Peanut Brittle! We ended up coming back the next week for my boss's birthday, since he LOVES truffles! I purchased him a custom 1lb box of Kruffles, 10 Rocky Road, 10 Maple Caramel with Chocolate and 4 Peanut Butter Chocolate. Fast forward, he loved them, the box is empty he-he! My boyfriend purchased some candies as well, Chicken Feet, Chocolate Graham Cracker, Molasses Seafoam, Chocolate Covered Potato Chips, Marshmallows on a stick dipped in caramel and more Peanut Brittle. They were all delicious! I would definitely recommend stopping by this small business, they specialize in homemade fine chocolates and are third and fourth generation chocolate makers! Plus whenever you come in you receive a free sample, I would recommend the Balsamic vinegar Kruffle! This chocolate truffle is surprisingly sweet and filled with decadent caramel, you'll want to order a box! Remember to refrigerate your goodies since they are perishable, Happy International Chocolate and National Peanut Day! Support small and local, especially now when they need our business the most! read more

Drove by here so many times but didn't realize this place was an authentic old fashioned candy and chocolate store. They make their chocolates and truffles my hand and did so for the last 42 years! I bought truffles for my girlfriend since she loves truffles but the truffles look and taste wonderful and the brittle was so fresh, it was nice and crunchy. The owners were really nice and even offered a free sample despite the whole COVID-19 craze. read more

There is a ton of charm to Kobasic's candies. Who knew there has been a candy maker in Sacramento for such a long time!? I got a 1/4 sample and enjoyed every piece I picked. Some favorites are the peanut butter cup, coconut, cherry rocky road, regular rocky road. I'd be very happy with a bigger box of those flavors. They do have unusual items like the chocolate dipped potato chips. They sound dangerous. This place is well worth the visit. read more

Pretty cool to have a homemade chocolate shop in the neighborhood! The prices are high but it's on par with other chocolate shops. I liked everything I got from here. In another review someone complained their alcohol chocolates were "too boozy" so obviously I gotta got back and get some because that sounds freaking delicious lol read more

I've been going here for YEARS. My favorite are chocolate dipped potato chips. I can eat like 5 bags of those LOL! The store has an eerie feel and definitely needs to be updated. The displays of old dolls and toys are interesting to look at but after all the years they have been displayed, it may be time for them to be rearranged for a more modern feel if not doing without them at all. I like the spicy caramel kruffles, or anything that has some spice to them LOL! The service has always been great. They used to host weddings in the big banquet back in the days and it is sad that they're no longer doing that. The website also needs some upgrade but overall works. read more

Best chocolate EVER. You can taste the quality in every bite. I first learned about kobasics when someone gave me a sample of 4 chocolates. I ate all 4 and had to find the shop ASAP. My husband went before Valentine's Day and gifted me a box of chocolate covered Oreos, a box of hand picked assorted chocolates, some pecan and almost clusters and coconut cashew brittle. The treats didn't last long in our home and was delicious to the last bite. A few days ago I finally had an opportunity to visit kobasics. I felt like a kid in a candy store (literally). I ordered a $12 box and picked whatever I wanted. After filling the box we were told to pick 2 additional free samples which we did not turn down! The shop is cluttered and looks like it's been there for a lonnnnnng time! Super nice staff/owners and the best chocolate I ever had. I'll never eat see's candy again. Try the vanilla salted caramel ASAP! It's my fav. read more

Wanted to love this place since I tried a few of their dark chocolates already, but I found out the hard way that some of these have mold inside. Please be warned before buying from here again. read more

I wish I'd taken a picture of the perfect, beautiful chocolates my boyfriend and I picked up today, but we couldn't resist eating them all immediately Kobasic's was such a nice surprise as it was our first time there and we didn't know what to expect, but the whole crew was so kind and they offered us each a sample and even answered our silly questions. We got to meet the choclatier that makes them all and he was so kind, you can tell they really love what they do - I highly recommend a visit! Every chocolate was delicious but my favorite was probably the cinnamon cayenne kruffle, so good read more

I love this place!!!!! But be careful, if you eat a box of these delicious chocolates, and go back to eating a regular candy bar...YUCK!!! You will taste the preservatives. This place has the best tasting treats, The different flavors are so interesting and unique. I will always come back here for a treat. read more

Their salted caramels are my VERY FAVORITE. Their eclectic shop is fun and like you're stepping back in time which I find fun. They have great friendly customer service which also seems to be a thing of the past everywhere else but not at Kobasic's. A wide variety of flavors it's always so hard to choose. read more

Had such a great experience here! The lady behind the counter was so sweet and helpful with explaining the treats to us and recommended some great ones. My favorite was the vanilla caramel there it was out of this world and the coffee toffee was my bf's favorite! Something else that was cool was that they had vintage disney pins, funko pops, and a whole bunch of other cool items. Will definitely be back for more chocolates read more

After shopping for Easter Candy at Kobasic's, I am a huge fan! The customer service from Cathy over the phone was sensational. I had a lot of questions when ordering and she patiently answered all of them as well as offered great suggestions. When I picked up my order from this modest family run business I met Cathy in person and she was every bit as helpful as over the phone. I was amazed at the huge selection of their cruffles- I purchased chased a cayenne chocolate and port chocolate cruffle and wish I had bought more. The flavors were marvelously rich. Be sure to get your free (your choice) candy sample! read more

Kobasic's is a hidden jewel in Sacramento, tucked away on 5324 Riverside Blvd. close to the Westin. It's a family-owned chocolatier which has been in existence for several generations. The candy is INCREDIBLY delicious. What is particularly noteworthy is their selection of sugar-free chocolates. I am a longtime diabetic and have found most sugar-free chocolates to be bland, at best. Not here! OMG! The sugar-free candy here is the best I've ever tasted. (Reminder: the calories are not necessarily less.) Be prepared to pay a lot. These are fine, homemade chocolates, made on premises. It's a special treat you don't consume every day. It's worth it! Note: They're open every day! read more

My friend who personally knows the owner ordered us a few boxes of assorted chocolates and had them mailed to us. Let me tell you, the handmade caramels were the best I've ever had in my life. This family-owned store is a real gem. I only wish I lived closer, but then again I'd probably be 20 lbs. heavier! Definitely worth a visit if you're in the neighborhood or put in a mail order. read more

I've lived in the neighborhood for years, and knew it was there, but haven't been aware of any advertising or promotions. Finally, I went by for a Christmas gift. I was greeted by a friendly lady that answered all my questions. She made it easy to make selections for a gift box - even offered a sample. Then found that they can also mail the package. Great chocolate and great service. I highly recommend this business!! read more
