Would give zero stars if I could. When I walked into this place the owner greeted me with a, «what are you doing here!» I responded asking him if they were open and he said, «yeah but what are you doing here!» So rude. I could not believe he would speak to a potential customer like that especially since they are located in a mall with barely any foot traffic! Go elsewhere if you want friendly service and sweet treats. Life’s too short for curmudgeon customer service!

The candy is really good, when they can be bothered to open. 2x now I’ve gone on different occasions to have them not be open. But of course, the open sign and a «be back in 10 minutes» sign is up, so I’ve waited over an hour each time. Never again…

Went here a couple of weeks ago and they have a lot of the candy from the 60’s and 70’s. So my husband was looking for Jujubes and they didn’t have any. So we just visited here again this past week and the owner had ordered some Jujubes for when we came in again! How great is that!
Love going here and seeing what new and exciting candy they have made. Fun place!

Whenever I go to Lake Tahoe I make sure I stop at this candy store. In the past, I have had nothing but wonderful experiences. Today, however, was different. An over middle aged man behind the counter was strange, and quite rude. I was with my mother-​in-​law from England, who was trying to understand all the different candies. She told me privately, tell him I only want a piece of that. When I told him, he said are you going to cut me off again, or can I finish talking?! I am not sure that is the way to talk to customers, regardless of whether you feel they «mistreated» you or not. I left immediately, even though I was planning on buying quite a bit of chocolate. I will not be going back. Good luck to him!

They we’re very sweet to our two boys. They gave us lots of samples. Not many stores like this left anymore. The personal interaction makes all the difference. My husband has great memories coming here as a kid and now we are passing that on to our boys.
Plus all the candy is amazing!

Wayyy back in the day, I worked here with the original owners, and have fond memories of shoving my face full of sweets.
On a recent trip down memory lane, I drug my hubby here and found it had changed a little bit… new owner, they make the chocolates there, and they added a bleep load of packaged old school candy.
The plusses: They start hooking you up with samples as soon as you walk in the door, and their fudge (I tried the Espresso Salted Caramel one) is to die for. The staff is super friendly, and prices aren’t too crazy.
The minuses: The place is super unorganized and kinda chaotic visually with all the pre-​packaged commercial candy shoved into every possible shelf and crevice of the shop. It’s overwhelming. They advertised ice cream, but it was covered and looked closed off… in June on a 90 degree day. Not so smart.
I’d def go back though to pick up more chocolates and other yummy treats.

Best chocolates ever! This store is where my husband buys me gift boxes for special occasions. They are a little expensive, but well worth it. And – the boxes are beautiful – not the generic looking ones that you often see in other candy stores. We have lived in this area for close to 40 years and this is where we buy our special treats.

We were in Tahoe for a conference this week and decided to go wander around town for a bit. We stumbled upon this little gem of a candy shop. The nice young men behind the counter kept giving us samples of various types of candy, all delicious. That particular type of marketing worked great because I bought some candy that I wouldn’t have otherwise! Great customer service and product knowledge. I’d stop by again next time I’m in town!

They have a wonderful assortment of imported candies from Germany, Sweden and beyond besides their own homemade creations and ice cream. Generous with samples, smiles and great people. We would definitely go back for more.

Awesome place, owners are very much into interacting with customers.
You have to ask them to stop giving so many samples!
Friendliest store in town next to the Blue Agave!

One of my essential stops whenever I’m in Tahoe or the vicinity.
The workers here live what they do and really know their stuff! I feel right at home with the amount if enthusiasm and aficionado for sugar. I have found my people!!!
Being in this store can feel a bit overwhelming with so many options, but the employees here do a good job of helping you narrow down and offering their top picks.
Did I also mention the samples?!? Best marketing/​sales tool ever!!! I bought everything I tasted!
This little shop is always worth the stop!

Went in here to be nostalgic as there was a photo of my fiancé as a child. The owner was totally rude and crass. Yelled at my future mother in law for wanting to see the picture. Told us we were not welcome in there for no reason whatsoever. Well guess what dude u have lost A LOT of potential customers because we will be telling everyone about our treatment.

The owner is a great guy and gives you tons of samples when you walk in without being pushy. Good quality chocolate and ice cream. Highly recommended.

Sour candies here are the BEST. We also bought some chocolate which was delicious. They have a HUGE selection of all types of delicious sweets. The owner is so friendly and we were given plenty of samples to try. I can’t wait to go back!

The owner/​operator of this establishment is a fun guy and shoved tons of samples in my hand as soon as I walked in the door. He started off with some tropical gummies and chewy candy. Next he gave me chocolate samples. Then some hard candy. Then some peanut candy and candied nuts. By the time I had decided what I wanted, I was on an insane sugar high. The room was spinning.
I settled on a box with turtles, fudge and red velvet cake to take home and share with my friends back home. I love this place.

Chocolate is pretty pricey but if you want quality chocolate, that’s the price you got to pay. However, there is a flavor of ice cream (mint cookie) that combines two of my favorite flavors in one delicious mix. Mint chocolate chip has too many hard chips in them and cookies and cream is missing a good mint taste! The ice cream here mixes the two to perfection with an amazingly smooth texture!
The owner/​man behind the counter is also extremely friendly and will give you random samples! :)

Owner and kid working there were very strange. I was browsing the selection when the kid addressed me saying, «here, HERE!
I got somethin’ for you» and shoved tangerine gummies in my hand. Ok??? Then my mom asked for fudge without nuts and the guy (we assume this was the owner) who responded sarcastically with «of course, what do you think this is, an auto shop?» Very odd. Suprised my mom put up with it, but oh well. Won’t be coming back for more.

This is definitely a place one needs to check out if they are in the mood to try something different and sweet.
The workers were very generous with samples and were extremely friendly.
We strolled in here after being cooped up in our cabin all day and found that this store was 1 of 3 stores that were still open at this «mall». They welcomed us in with big smiles and my family quickly made themselves at home inside the little shop. They sell a variety of sweets to fit anyones personality. They have hard candy, fudge, chocolate dipped/​covered concoctions, ice cream, and more! Some things that my family tried was their chocolate filled with tequila, enormous chocolate dipped rocky road, and grapefruit slices. All were delicious. Some of their prices were a little steep, but I would come back just for the awesome customer service!
