To this candy cantina I wandered, and not only sweets awaited me—ice cream flowed here as well, cold and creamy like a Hoth-level indulgence. After navigating rows of colorful candies and handcrafted chocolates, one may finish the quest with a scoop (or two) of ice cream, restoring balance to both Jedi and Padawan alike.

The chocolate selection remains strong—fresh, rich, and clearly crafted with care—while the candy jars call to your inner child with irresistible nostalgia. Add ice cream to the mix, and suddenly this shop becomes a full dessert destination, not just a sweet stop.

Bright, cheerful, and well-organized the space is, with friendly staff ready to guide you toward your next sugar-fueled destiny. Whether you seek candy, chocolate, or a cold scoop of happiness, the Force is very much with this place.

Final wisdom: resist you may try… but leave without dessert, you will not.

A very cute candy, sweet, ice cream and baked items store. We sampled a few things including the whoopie pies and it all was yummy. It has a small town feel and was very slow when we visited. They do have a restroom for customers and a few tables outside to eat your treats in nice weather. The people working were very young and not very knowledgeable about what they were selling but they were nice. Overall a perfect road trip stop!

We were having lunch next door and decided to skip dessert so we could try cupcakes and ice cream at this place. We absolutely enjoyed the store. I had a gingerbread man cupcake which I truly enjoyed. My girlfriend had a blackberry ice cream which she enjoyed as well. The store had all different types of chocolates and candies. Definitely, give this place a shot, you will like it. Service was really good, the young lady was very helpful.

I ordered the vanilla caramel which is ok. I also ordered the tiger butter fudge, it is only white chocolate with a layer of milk on top. Disappointed that there isn’t any peanut butter in the fudge. Also the consistency of the fudge is weird and it has an off taste to it. Definitely not impressed with the product. The fudge I received is obviously not the same as in the pictures of your store on Google.

Didn’t even contact me for sending me the wrong item. Some customer service would be nice!!!!!

So sad this place use to be great. Took my 7 year old son for a small date last Friday to get special candy. Chocolate gummy bears melted into each other in the jar. I opened orange gummy bear jar and it smelled like sour oranges. Poor quality candy. On top of it the girl charged me for the lolly pop then weighed it too! Half bag of cheap candy $9. If you are going to run a candy shop circulate your candy. It’s not the $9 it’s the experience. I only gave it a 2 because the young lady was nice. And older lady there honestly couldn’t be bothered to be kind or helpful with what they had. I have thrown my daughter’s birthday 4 years ago. What a disappointment somewhere I use to love to go downhill in quality like that. I know times are tough – lesson the variety for better quality. I never write a review like this because being a small business is hard but I didn’t want another disappointed parent spending money somewhere where it isn’t appreciated.

This was their second chance to make things right unfortunately it didn’t work It arrived smashed and melted Don’t order anything that could possibly melt because it will I’m still out of the product and my own money. Thank you for your response on Google review You know you could have just apologized and walked away with your head up I didn’t ask you to do this a second time You offered. I would have been happy with just an apology I don’t expect you to send me anything else either Good luck you’ll need it

I’m so disappointed. I walked in the shop and was hit with a mildew smell. I thought maybe with all the rain this summer, they were dealing with drying out. I ended up ordering 4 sugar cookies. I got home and took one out to try and again, got a very weird odor. Upon taking a bite, I had to spit it out and throw them all away. They had a horrible mildew taste! $19.00 for 4 cookies that were not edible. The shop was not clean either. I should have known better than to buy anything.

The selection is very disappointing and although they have lots of shapes of candy, all of it has the same stale “fruit” flavor. I’ve been in several times, and this is pretty consistent. The fudge and baked goods were pretty disappointing. The staff is generally pleasant, but the vibe is stiff and weird. The owner seems to act in a very unprofessional way and she posts the 1 star reviews for her 2k followers of Facebook.

I don’t see how this review is bullying it’s an honest opinion from my perspective.

I absolutely love this candy store, the owner and her family are incredible!! I dream about the strawberry puffs and tiger butter fudge, the penuche is a New England classic. Must see, vibrant sweet shop on a quintessential New England Main Street, chefs kiss!
