SweetPeas Emporium - Snickers cookie and Turtles cookie - Desserts Near Me - McHenry, Illinois

Food service and ambiance, all 5 stars if you are looking for sweet , locally made treats. Their cookies were recommended by neighbor and they have oodles of big heaps of frosting and practically a candy bar on top. They are definitely "shareable" up to 4 people I'd say. Me, being the plain Jane that I am had to pass on that version, however and got a huge plain peanut butter. Totally yummy. I also got a chocolate covered cherry and a cute oversized butter cookie frosted animal cracker type cookie, wrapped for gift giving in cellophane bag w tie on top. They also have ice cream, shaved ice and all kinds of other things I did not even dare to linger and look at. They ladies behind the counter were super sweet as well. If you are looking for sweets this is your stop. read more

Sweet Pea Emporium, is the best sweet shop in the area. The store feels like you are walking into a life size Candyland Game. So many great "old time" candies, trinkets, and games for kids and adults alike. The baked goods? WOW, they are 100% delicious and decadent. Cookies, brownies, muffins, cinnamon rolls to name a few are all amazing. The owners, Lisa and Linda are two of the nicest people I've ever met. The staff at Sweet Pea Emporium, is always so super happy, friendly and helpful. I have been going to Sweet Pea since they opened and have always left there feeling happy and looking forward to going back!! Donna Dowell read more

First time visit today and it was just too cute. The aesthetic is amazing and ripe for photos (if anyone is so inclined), could be a good stop for a bday party. Beyond the vibes, the candy selection is prime and the chocolate selection is almost overwhelming. We purchased some cookies and the amount of options was awesome. We ordered an oatmeal raisin, a vanilla birthday cake, and a chocolate chip. All were fantastic and would definitely buy again. For the amount of deliciousness, toppings, and size, prices are very fair. Can't wait to come again! read more

At first glance, the shop looks like a regular house, but once inside your transformed into a magical candy wonderland.

I love the cookies because they are always fresh and taste like they came right out of the oven. Happy I stumbled upon this hidden gem. read more

This is the cutest place! They have a wide variety of childhood candy favorites, chocolate and other cute gift ideas. They serve ice cream and shaved ice, but the best is their cookies!! Huge cookies with tons of frosting. We tried a sugar cookie and a raspberry one. Both were to die for! The staff is also very helpful and friendly. Pricing is good-the huge cookies are about 6 bucks.

I received a dozen humungus SweetPeas cookies as a birthday gift. Absolutly amazing! Started out with the S'mores cookie. Had to split it, it was so big. This is the most decadent cookie ever made! It was so incredible I sware I died and went to heaven. The perfect proportion of graham cracker, marshmallow and chocolate! Have not tried the rest.... yet! And I can't wait! I have to say eye balling the key lime, and the lemon, and the snickers, and of course the birthday cookies, and...... for starters! read more

Delicious! Such a sweet shop (no pun intended) in McHenry. Their cream cheese frosting is to live for!!! Great selection of cookies and cakes and chocolate treats. The ladies there are also a delight. If you haven't been - go- you won't be disappointed! And....try the Turtle Toffee Coffee. Yum! read more

Amazing! Like walking into Willy Wonka's factory. You name it, they had it. Anyone with a sweet tooth would have a field day

This is a cute little shop that has delicious cookies. The s'mores cookie is amazing, its so huge that you can usually get 2 or 3 servings from it. The toffee cookie and peanut butter are also great. Even just the cookies without all the toppings are delicious. They have homemade hot chocolate (not sure if it's seasonal or not) but it was very rich and the salted caramel was a nice touch. I haven't tried their chocolates yet but they all look really good. Walking around the whole shop is fun too because you see a bunch of candy, some you've never seen and some you haven't seen in years. If you get there early, they even have day old cookies for half price and they're still super fresh read more

Super instagram-worthy sweet shoppe. We went mid afternoon on a Saturday, and they had a good selection. Staff were friendly and patient in explaining all the flavors of cookies and truffles. Lots to look at from all the seasonal items to candies I haven't seen since the 70's! Pricing was reasonable, too. Definitely recommend! read more

SweetPeas accommodated an "emergency" gluten free cookie and cupcake order for me last week. They couldn't have been nicer and the treats were DELICIOUS. The shop is super cute too. Definitely out Go To treat place from now on - gluten or no gluten! Thank you! read more

We were in search of ice cream and found this place on yelp. It did not disappoint! Such cute decor inside and out. Covid-19 friendly with sanitizer at the door, masks worn by all employees and we saw them cleaning door knobs etc. Spoons were wrapped, etc. Our sundaes were delicious and our toddler loved all the toys and neat displays. The owner (we think) was super nice and brought us a free cinnamon roll and ice water when she saw us sitting outside. It was quiet when we were there, only one other customer inside (which was nice as we prefer to avoid too many people during covid-19) but sitting outside we saw customers coming and going so they are definitely popular. Will definitely be back and will share with our friends/family. Thank you Sweet Peas! read more

Absolutely LOVE SweetPeas Emporium!!! I called this morning with what I thought was a impossible ask with a impossible timeline. They were not even open yet technically, but answered the phone, and took my need and assured me they would call me when ready. 45 minutes later my phone rang and my request was complete. I cannot say thank you enough for fulfilling this request of my mother who was in the hospital and wanted to gift her nurses some delicious cookies. read more

Fresh baked goods that are cute and delicious! Plus super friendly and fun staff! Got a sweet tooth? Come here!

Such a cute place. My 6y/o and I both said it reminded us of a place in Door county. While checking out, an older couple came in and I had over heard them say the same thing. The treats are very affordable and no shortage of selections. Cute old time candy shop meets home made baked sweets. Adorable trinkets for kids and plenty of options for any occasion. Staff was very friendly. Home made sweets were large in size and no shortage of taste packed in these creations as well :) read more

And all the treats are amazing. We sat outside eating our ice cream. Which was made fresh. Amazing!!! And all of a sudden the came out with a free cinnamon roll and water. That was so nice!! Can't wait to return. We felt very special. Thank you read more

We absolutely love this place. BEST COOKIES IN THE WORLD!! My favorite is the standard peanut butter and my wife's are the standard chocolate chip. They are so soft and filled with goodness.
