Got some fun items and liked the pumpkin spice caramel (in the display case at the cashier). Employees were friendly, but were chatting the whole time and had to be waved over every time. Prices are high and most items don't have labels, so you have to ask about every single item. Fun to look though. Was disappointed there weren't more unique local goodies.

The staff are very kind and friendly here. They have a great selection of both common and uncommon candies. They even sell TY plushes and local-made purses that are just to adore.

Stopped in here Thursday @ 2:30pm with a friend after we had lunch at Broadway Heights. Wanted something for dessert and walked right by this gorgeous candy store! I love the layout of this place, it's filled with so many different options! Ranging anywhere from the vintage candy some of us remember as kids to the super unique candy from Austria that you never knew about. We ordeded some of the tasty treats from behind the glass as they looked irresistible! We tried a Tiramisu Truffle, a Créme Brûlée Truffle, some Milk Chocolate Bark and four Milk Chocolate Sea Salted Caramels! Honestly, the price was totally worth it; I was pleasantly surprised. If i'm ever craving something sweet I will definitely be stopping here! Thank you guys!!! Oh, and the magnets are absolutely hilarious!! If you stop in, be sure to check them out!

Do you have a sweet tooth? Do you like candy? Do you enjoy Willy Wonka? How about Gelato...truffles...throwback toys and gum? Look NO further than RIGHT HERE! Located in downtown Chico, this is the premier store for all of the above, and more. Homemade chocolate and treats, over a dozen Gelato flavors, saltwater taffy, a chewing gum cabinet, a full-wall of candy dispensers, throwback toys and musical instruments...it goes on and on!! Do not be afraid to ask for an item OR help, as the staff are more than friendly to oblige your request. Plus, how can you go wrong with "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory" playing on a loop in the back of the store...surrounded by movie memorabilia and autographed photos from said movie? You can't!! Also available is a party room to rent where dreams CAN come true for birthday parties. Go no further for all your candy needs then right here.

We love this store and have always brought our little girl in when we are downtown for a, "special treat." Recently, my daughter has been earning her own money and we are teaching her some basic fundamentals. The store has decided to take the price tags off of items recently. It creates a huge problem because when she has "x" amount of money, she doesn't know what she can afford to buy. There is frequently only 1 person behind the counter so price checking everything my daughter wants to buy is quite a hassle for us and very non productive for the employee! Maybe if scanners were offered the, "no price tag," tactic might work? It was a place we liked to go to teach her how to use her own money with friendly staff. But now it's just a long drawn out disappointment for us and our kid. So sad

Staff is very sweet and incredibly helpful! One of the only places in town you can find hard to get candy. And it always makes my kids very happy haha

Drove from out of town to visit the candy store, 3 hours before they closed only to be "welcomed" by a manager telling us that it's closed due to a staff meeting. Despite wanting to spend a lot of money on over priced candy they basically shut us out. Who schedules staff meetings during business hours? This place is magical but due to poor management decisions, I will not suggest you support this place, or at the very least call them before going. Imagine your child balling their eyes out because they close without letting the public know. Is a staff meeting really worth the 100's of dollars we were willing to spend?!?
