It was an excellent recommendation. We ordered a variety of items from the cases. The cherry cobbler was especially memorable, but everything was good.

Not to mention it was quite popular! I loved the selection of hot chocolate options and the translation for each. However I wasn't very impressed by the French one I ordered (dark chocolate plus vanilla). It was good but not as decadent as I was anticipating and even with 30 min to close I asked to dine in but they gave me everything in Togo containers. I also got a Swede sandwich- which was ham, Swiss and Dijon mustard. Nothing to write home about. It was very very average. However I did get an almond cookie with chocolate ganache which was fantastic. Sitting at a table in this shop and looking at all the treats was great. I have a feeling if I come back at an earlier time this place could really blow me away, but as of right now. It's mid. I'm not impressed and what was left at the end of the day was just average. Also the three items cost me about $20 so I would say this place Is on the pricer end

The kids loved the Jelly Belly selection, and my wife and I loved the hand made chocolate goodies. The quality of the chocolate and the nuts made the Pecan Turtle I ate, disappear in less than a minute. It's funny, because from the outside, this place looks old, but it's well kept inside and the employees are as nice as could be. There are so many options and variations, you'll be sure to find something that meets your sweet tooth. This is definitely going to be a regular stop for us when we visit the Dells.

I love their decades section - candies sold in bags based on the popular candies of a certain decade. I'm a big fan of all the different bulk candies, though! They organize them nicely based on type of candy (chocolate, gummy, hard, etc.) They do have some more "inappropriate" candies towards the back of the store (think bachelorette-appropriate, not so much child appropriate) so don't let your child stray too far if you're concerned about that sort of thing. The employees have always been courteous and attentive - very helpful when you just can't decide what to get. In addition to candy they also have some small gifts like magnets, mugs, etc.

A decent little shop with a wide selection of bulk candy and chocolate. The prices seemed fair,…read morebut like any bulk candy store you have a shop smart. The one thing that stood out to me here was their business model. You aren't allowed to fill your own bags. As you browse you are approached and asked if you need a bag. If the answer is yes the helpers fill the bags for you. You tell them what you want and they get it out of the bulk bins. A little different than other bulk candy stores I've been in before where it's more of less self service. From a health and welfare standpoint I can respect this... From a control standpoint I really wasn't a fan. I want to have the bag in my hand. I know roughly how much a pound weighs in my own hand. It's hard to judge the weight when it's in someone else's.

They have Jelly Bellies, Fudge, Ice Cream, and all sorts of interesting confections. The walls are LITERALLY covered with them. They also make authentic sodas with all sorts of flavors. I was on the hunt for raspberry sorbet, and they had it. The single scoop serving I ordered was very generous, and came with a pink spoon that changed to purple when it was cooled in the ice cream (Parents - keep this a secret and watch them figure it out!) This place is kept very clean. The list of stuff they have goes on quite a bit longer, I hit the high points. The service was good, the place was spotless, the tables didn't rock, and the ice cream was good. What's not to like?

Unfortunately, she wasn't there the day we came, but everyone else working was so friendly (sweeter than the candy, if you will). The decor, it's the perfect synergetic aesthetic that is that candy shop in the Harry Potter movies and Target mom's 'candy bar' search on Pinterest. There was even some fun jazzy music playing while we were browsing and eating. Really all more that I needed was some pigtails and the patience for a lollipop, but alas. We got a 4pack of truffles, choco bars and other bits and bobs. There's your classics (fudge/licorice,etc) , some funky new ones (like these candy caps we got - sweet tasting mushrooms?), and even ice cream! Truffles (all dark chocolate): Hazelnut, Amaretto, Salted caramel, Cappuccino The superstars were the salted caramel and cappuccino.
