So happy we ran across this!…read more I always like to bring candy home when traveling and this has been the best mixed candy yet they have the Bubs candy and other popular Swedish/international candies! Little pricey but to be expected. Now the sundaes are insane! Watching them make it was pretty neat- they newly have a non-dairy strawberry which I felt went perfect with with Strawberry sundae that stood out to me! Mind you I can have dairy but my stomach definitely prefers less is better! LOL I did not try my friends brownie one but she really liked it. Honestly you can likely order the size mini because it really isn't so mini and perfect size to actually finish! My friend got the regular and had to toss likely the amount in difference between our two sizes because she was full and we had no way with our hotel room to freeze the leftovers. I'd definitely recommend.

Hampton Chocolate Factory was a really fun stop during our visit to Sparkman Wharf, and it's…read moredefinitely a place I'd love to return to. My dad and I had a great time browsing the selection of international candies and ended up picking up a bunch of treats from countries like Sweden, Denmark, and Germany. It's always fun trying snacks and candies from different parts of the world and seeing how they compare to what we're used to. My personal favourite was the Raspberry Fizz bottle candies, which I believe are from Sweden. They were absolutely delicious and easily the standout candy from our haul. While we focused on the imported candy this visit, the ice cream, chocolate, and other desserts all looked incredible as well. Everything in the display cases looked tempting, so we'll definitely have to come back and try some of those next time. The staff were great too; kind, patient, and happy to help as we looked through all the different options. If you're visiting Sparkman Wharf and have a sweet tooth, this is absolutely worth a stop!

They have beautiful sets of mixing bowls that remind me of the Great British Bake Off show. I saw the traditional teapots that you see all over the English countryside. There's snacks, chocolates, hard candies, tea, frozen pies, curry sauces, cheese, and even ice cream. I felt like I was back in Woodbridge, England. I honestly haven't seen this many grocery items in one place since being stationed over there. It really brought back great memories. I ended up buying some sweets. I was mainly looking for a box of Cadbury Roses, and some hard fruit candies with soft centers. I can't remember the brand name. I ended up getting the Cadbury Bournville bar in the Old Jamaica flavor. I thought it had been discontinued. This is actually the first time I've seen it in years. I also got the Simpkins Mixed Fruit Drops. It's the simple things that make me happy. All tasted exactly as I remembered them to be. I didn't get to hang out at the store long enough. I think that's a good thing, because I would have bought the Cadbury Eclairs and the Walkers Roasted Hazelnut Toffee bars. I'll need to pace myself. I can't wait to return for more goodies. It will be even more tempting at Christmas time when they bring in seasonal candies (hopefully liquor filled), and tree ornaments.

Really friendly service. The guy that works here was telling us about the move from St. Petersburg…read more He was also telling us about products they make seasonally and for holidays. They also have molds for all kinds of occasions. They have everything arranged on one side with holiday items, and the other side is regular products they carry daily. It was neatly organized and easy to find. They also sell chocolate covered popcorn, and gelatos. Nice little store.

Terrific place for gifts!…read more I got an email from Yelp recently, telling me about places I should go visit. I saw this Chocolatier in Carrollwood and knew I needed to visit. Located on N Dale Mabry, in the same plaza as Burger 21, Peterbrook Chocolatier is open most days until 8 or 9 PM (except Sundays). This is very convenient for a busy person like myself. I rolled in around 7 last night, and was warmly greeted by Pam. I told her I was looking to get some gifts to show appreciation for some folks and she showed me the most popular items, and then gave me freedom to wander and collect. These folks cover so many things is chocolate. Potato chips, Oreos, Graham crackers, espresso beans, malt balls, raisins, gummy bears, toffee and so much more. They have a very large selection of ready to go baskets full of goodies for Valentine's Day, or you can have one custom made with treats you know your sweetheart will adore. They also have a case of beautiful chocolates you can have boxed (they have heart ones for the holiday!) and Gelato for a yummy snack. I bought a few extra things for myself, and I must say, the chocolate is delightful. I tried the dark chocolate covered candied oranges and they were fantastic. Highly recommend visiting this place for a tasty treat for yourself or someone else.

The top skin is very crispy and the pork belly meat is very soft and tender and it taste tasted like it was just right out out of the oven. I also ordered the sua siu pork, and it was very tender and delicious as well. This oriental grocery store is the most organized and decorated grocery store I've ever been into. They have a whole aisle, dedicated to the Chinese beauty drink, which my mother has stockpiled the ingredients for me and I make a tea of it every week. My mother was with me to help me pick out the pork belly, and she had stated that the prices are pretty decent however, there are some items where the prices are higher than other oriental grocery stores but overall the prices are very decent here. The prices for their deli station is very nicely priced I would say much cheaper than the other places and the quality is much higher than at the other places so it's definitely a win-win situation at this place. They have a very large parking lot and it's very close to downtown Tampa and it's very close a couple blocks away from armature works.

They are mixed or envisioned by the owners and are multicultural! There are vibrant flavors of olive oils and vinaigrettes. Olive oils are sourced from Italy. I'm especially impressed by the garlic olive oil (so fresh!) and dark chocolate balsamic! There are also several tea options and a cute tea shop in the back where you can pick up a cup for yourself. This is also a really great place to buy gifts for the holidays. There are prepackaged gifts or you can get a few products to make yourself!

The flashy and diner-esque Sugar Factory is a restaurant (not truly a full-sized candy store if…read moreyou're wondering) located within the Seminole Hard Rock Casino & Hotel Tampa. It's located on the second floor of the casino space and easy to locate. If you're wondering, the parking garages that are closest to the restaurant are Lucky Street and Winner's Way at the 2nd Floor/Casino level. After walking into the casino, it's a straight shot to the Sugar Factory as it's hard to miss with its bright and dazzling lights. The Sugar Factory takes a super playful approach at the dining experience as it truly makes everything a photo op. From the physical restaurant to the food itself, the patron is immersed in a "gram"-rich environment (light weight mad that the food here is more photo-genic than I am). It appears to be great for large groups and parties/celebratory events. There is a small candy/sweets section from where you can purchase those delectable morsels by the pound, along with other small trinkets. The menu is similar to other bar/grill-type restaurants (comparable to a BJs and even the Hard Rock Cafe). One main difference is in the focus that they place in their dessert/sweets section. The smoothies and ice cream go hard when it comes to flare and accoutrements (as mentioned before, they look more like art work than food itself). These treats do run on the sweet side... (4th wall break - c'mon look at the name). So, if you want to do it for the gram bring yourself and/or the group to the Sugar Factory at the Hard Rock Casino & Hotel in Tampa!

We've visited this restaurant twice, and unfortunately, both experiences started the same way. Even…read morethough the restaurant wasn't busy, we had to wait 15-20 minutes just to be seated because there was never anyone at the host stand. During our most recent visit, we eventually walked into the dining area ourselves to find someone. Even after asking for help, it took another 10 minutes before someone came to the front to seat us. The desserts, however, are absolutely incredible. They offer a great variety, and while they're definitely on the expensive side, the portions are huge--one dessert could easily be shared by three people. The hot food, on the other hand, was underwhelming and didn't leave much of an impression. We'd consider coming back for dessert, but the service at the front and the quality of the entrées need improvement.
