Hahndorf Sweets

Another amazing sweet shop in Hahndorf. Seriously if you want to rot your teeth and give yourself diabetes I would go and visit Hahndorf!
This shop is known for its fudge as well as its chilli chocolate frog. Chilli chocolate recently became a bit of rage, but I can’t say I’m a massive fan. On the other hand their fudge is amazing. You buy it in big rectangles and you honestly eat so much so quickly you feel ill. They also have heaps of different types of fudge, something to suit everyone!
The shop also has the usual lolly favourites. My favourites were the range of Pezs they had (ok the lollies taste shit but they look so cool) you can even buy a dispenser that looks like a Wii controller!
They also sold some really weird things that I have never seen in a lolly shop. Item A– Yorkshire pudding mixture! If you don’t know what this is Google it, it is sort of like a savoury pudding that are served with roasts. Delicious, but not quite right in a lolly shop. Item B was a jar of pickles. A jar of pickles! Enough said.

Hahndorf Sweets is a cute little shop, definitely overpriced but unfortunately that’s the case with every store in Hahndorf. They sell quite a big range of sweets, ranging from Hershey’s to less famous brands and, my favourites, Haribo and Rittersport. For a little sachet of Haribo you pay about $ 3.50 and for a Rittersport it’s something ridiculous like nearly 5 bucks. Ah well, the joys of tourist towns.
I give this place 4 stars though because — apart from the prices — I really like it. Great selection and friendly staff.

I try to steer clear of Hahndorf as mush as possible. Why, I hear you ask?
Not because it’s a dump, and not because I don’t like the place. Quite the opposite really. It’s because they have way too many sweet and chocolate shops, and I can only resist for so long.
Hahndorf sweets is one I find hard to go past without going in first and stocking up on some yummy goodness. They have lots of old time favourites, as well as some favourites from the US and the UK.
Best to avoid Hahndorf altogether if you are dieting or a diabetic.

Hahndorf is known for a number of things by many people. For me it is a place that has both Meat and Beer (big thumbs up), is a good spot to get you Ooom Paaah on and is the only place I know of that has two specialist sweet shops, and chocolate shop and a fudge shop within 50 metres of each other!
Hahndorf sweets, for those not quite on the ball, is one of the sweet shops, and stocks imported sweets from the US and the UK plus a large range of every other tooth decaying suppliment that you could imagine.
Personally I prefer Humbugs, but they both stock very similar products!
