Grenadine

I had some spare moments, therefore, playing catch up on some of my local Vancouver revie
I used to come here. In fact this use to be one THE places to get candy. I came here later in the month and it is now gone. There is a Shoppers in it’s place now. i did report this place as closed, however, felt the need to express my sadness.

Best candy in the world. Chocolate, sugar and lots of candy! I love it because its close to every where and its amazing candy.
They have all types of candy. Mini jawbreakers, giant jawbreakers, warheads and so much more. I just love it!

Oooooh chocolate! Candy! Wait, are those pastilles from Flavigny, France?! I once stood outside the factory and a lovely lady handed me some through the (antique abbey) window! Still fresh from the making. For that memory alone, this shop gets 5 stars.
Plus, they deserve it for an amazing array of domestic and imported sweets. Chocolates and candies of every description, and a clearance section with a few approaching their expiration dates, but still perfectly tasty (I know because I got one — how could I resist?). If you are looking for a unique candy gift, this is a great place to start.

lots of interesting candy in this store

As I walked in this place, I knew I was in for a treat. This is like a sophisticated candy shop, with different candies in jars sold by the weight, and lots of very unique candies/​chocolate from all over the place.
There’s no generic gummy bears or kit kat bars, instead, you will be offered fresh jams and jellies, sweet spreads, and sweet delicacies. Hammond’s candy, Fentiman’s soda, Truffle Pig chocolate… Simply a great place to purchase anything unqiue & sweet!

This story is pretty and a nice alternative to other candy stores. I’m confident that it will get better and better as more people catch on. It’s a nice addition to the neighborhood and I really hope it does well. I plan on doing most of my Easter goodie shopping here.

The store’s tagline is sugar and spice and all things nice. It is located right next to Café Artigiano on Broadway. The window display is attractive. All looks promising and I can’t wait to enter. Alas, the inside this store bears a resemblance to a really high-​end designer clothes boutique, lots of floor space with just a few garments — except this is a candy and spice shop.
I pull for places like this to succeed. You can tell that the little store is lovingly planned by an eager owner with a dream. Unfortunately to me, the dream is a little unfocused and definitely understocked. High end European candies are interspersed with spice mixes. Tiny packages of French bonbons are meticulously hand tied with ribbons but carry lofty price tags. The one treat I looked for that would be a natural in this store they did not have, nor did they have anything similar. Maybe as the store matures and they start generating some revenue they will get more stock and I will have a more compelling reason to return.
