This place was awesome. Its combined with a toy store but the place was awesome. It had things and toys I had never seen candy Ive never seen and I was just amazed. Once again lucky I didnt have a bunch of money to spend because they had awesome paintings of Walt Disney characters and I admit that theres two of them in there that I want to buy. We had a great in this place and I cant wait to come back.
Very enthusiastic owner gives great customer service. Good selection of candy. Even candy cigarettes!
My daughter took a basket and was able to reach all the candy she could carry. I love the kids friendly height of the candy barrels. She racked up over$100 in sweet treats. It was so fun.
This store is absolutely fabulous! The selection and staff are always a 10. We travel from Rio Vista to Sacramento for our treats and are never disappointed.
Literally candy heaven. Was able to get some of my childhood favorite candies. Also, a wide variety of salt water taffy. .
This candy store is AWESOME! if you like hard candy, sour patch, salt water taffy and more! It is beautifully organized and so colorful! I came in here and didn’t know where to start. It’s as if I was a kid again. Some of the candies in here are stuff from like when I was younger!!!Staff: they were helpful and friendly. One guy saw I had a lot of stuff in my hands and he handed me a little basket. The girl at the cash register was telling us about some of the candies in the store and she had us try chocolate covered crickets! Ewww!!! But according to my nephew it tasted like KitKat and had a crunch like it Hahahaha! See video!They were open late on a Saturday night. Forgive me if I can tell you the time they close. But, I know I got out of a show that ended at 10pm so I know there were open late! Awesome candy store!!!
Such a wonderful candy store. HUGE collection of PEZ & the best tasting, largest variety of salt water taffy Ive ever seen in a candy shop. I live in Southern CA & anytime Im in Sac again, I will make it a point to go to Candy Heaven.
I always find everything my kids and I enjoy and wind up wroth a free shirt or magnet lol
Cute little place. A lot of gummy stuff, and taffy. Over priced, but, its a fun place to stop and get a few pieces.We got 3 chocolates from the candy case, and a little bag of gummies. 15 bucks. There was a girl walking atound town to give out a free sample coupon. She was super nice, all smiles, and having fun. When you go to claim the sample, they dont want the paper. lolWhen you go in, its a bit different. The girl on the register was all business, get your sh.... and get out type. A guy on the stairs yelling you get a free candy, and you get a free candy.Glad we stopped in.
Hard to.beat. Just about all the candy I had as a kid. Plus other candy. Also a nice selection of fancy chocolates and candies
Always a nice place to visit! Brings back a lot of great childhood memories!
This place is so fun. Everything you can think about. They have it. And the atmosphere. was really cool!!!
Any candy you want is here. Best Candy store ever
I had a super amazing time here... It definitely took me back to my childhood times... found candy that I thought didnt exist anymore.. loved my experience ♥
The best place to get any candy or candy bars, grab a bucket and fill it up. I been going there for the past 5 years and still going till this day. You got to check it out!
This store is amazing! They have old school candy that brings back so many great memories and fun new candies. Barrels & barrels of every candy you can think of plus a full chocolate bar. Every time I come to Sac I go in there and wish it was my store. The owner is such a great guy, friendly, knowledgeable of every candy in the store. Thank you for bringing out the kid in me.
Loved It! I never thought I could go to Candy Heaven but here it is. They have so many diffrent salt water taffy flavors and great selections of many diffrent candies. GREAT IF YOUR LOOKING FOR THOSE CANDIES THAT WERE YOUR FAVORITE AS A CHILD. FYI LOOOK UP! 🤡
The owner is the best part of this candy experience! Made my kiddos day to catch free candy mid-air! Candy is always delicious as well.🍫🍬🍭
Every kind of candy you could imagine. Also, love that they have a nice variety of sugar free chocolate.
Very nice place and the ultimate selection for any candy lover
Lots of variety in selection of candies. It can be crowded.
A must stop for unique candies and blasts from the past! I go here every time I visit Old Town Sac for the sour gumballs
Friendly customer service! The owner yanks my chain everytime! Glad to still have the same happy Man running Candy Heaven! Been a customer since 2002 middle school field trip!!
Been going here since I was a kid, been here recently and the vibe is still the same. Amazing variety of candy and very friend staff. They have something for everyone!
Theres so many candy shops in old Sacramento but Candy Heaven is a must visit. It has everything the other shops offer plus more.
Great place to find a variety of sugar-free candy!☺️
Went to the candy store yesterday with my family. The staff with the long hair behind the counter was very rude! I do not know his name, he kept saying rude things to my nephew and daughter. They are only 3 and four! Will not be returning!
Came on Christmas Eve, where most of store where close, but he was open. Looked around for Candy, but found the happiest man in the store that was sweet as the candy he was selling.Candy Recommendation: Mint Chocolate Bark
We love the variety of retro candy!
Fun shop, great selection, open late
So on the street someone handed me a piece of paper to try a free sample. We all went inside and were blown away by the rows and rows of candy. The smell of sugar just washes over your senses. The man with long hair welcomed us in with a joke and a smile. We were sampling so many things the kids will have to brush extra tonight. The owner even offered me a chocolate covered Cricket. It was so good! Would come back again for sure.
It’s like an old time candy store, with tons to select from. You can choose a bunch and then walk around outside and nibble as you go. Perfect for visiting old town Sacramento
Its a great place and all it has lots of candy and stuff but but it has mean service I was just talking to this guy and theres a service guy who told me to shut the hell up
Little overpriced but a lot of candies that you will rarely see anywhere else.
Went to get some salt water taffy to add to Christmas gifts. They have a variety of flavors you can pick yourself as well as prepackaged stuff. They also have a variety of other candy to choose from.
Great saltwater taffy. Soft full of flavor. Love this place. Always vist every time we come to Sacramento.
I love the variety of candy, however theyre over pricing it bit.
We have been visiting the store often on for 20 years. Always fun. But the last time I visited the majority of the taffy and hard candy I brought home was stale. Some of the taffy was actually crunchy. None was soft. Some of the hard candy was was a bit soft. Very disappointed. I’ve never experienced this before so we will go back and try again, but I hope they will get rid of the old stock rather than moving it to the top of the barrel. Also, people need to quit being jerks and stealing from them. I saw way too many people sampling from way too many bins when they are only supposed to try one or two.
Greatest candy store on earth! Thank you Darren for making this place so amazing! Thank you for all the joy you bring to those who visit!!!😁💛
Yes it is like heaven if you like candy, I love dark chocolate, they got all kinds of candy!!
It is a BIT expensive..more than other stores but normal for the Old part of Sacramento. They have a great variety of candies and you can TRY the ones with the BLUE tag. Everyone was very nice...The cashier made me laugh and without knowing it was exactly what I needed. They have also a lots of LOLLIPOPS and HONEY STI KS. Once again,only downside is the price and I still bought candies!
Caution!! Shopping here will lead to a candy coma 🍭🍬🍭🍬🍭!
Makes me feel like a kid again being in this candy store. The employees are very kind and even offer a few free samples to help you decide what to get. The variety of candy there is absolutely stunning!
Been going since I was a kid and Willie wonka is always there 🙂🙂 thank you its always a pleasure. Shop gahdessboutique.com
Went here as a kid and always loved the free samples, now as an adult when I am in town I go here with my partner. The owner is super fun/funny and overall makes the experience pleasant. First chocolate cricket I’ve ever eaten!Sincerely,Grizzly Adams
Rules: 2 samples ONLY!! I paid for mine, but its cool. Taffy Flavors are LEGIT!! Maple Bacon is accurate! Butter Popcorn is accurate! Chicken and Waffles, again ACCURATE! Enjoy...but dont break the rules!!!!
I love bringing my nieces and nephews here. They love getting their basket and picking out just the right candies. Such a variety! Old timey candies, huge variety of taffy, thousands of Pez machines, lots of gummies, chocolates, all the candies!
A great experience, friendly funny staff.
Had everything that I had as a child areal take back!
Very kool but will be 5 star if able to have more free samples
A nice candy store visit in Old Town Sacramento. They allow you 2 free samples of taffy or anything with a blue card. Maybe a little bit busy with around 10-15 people when I was there. The staff was kind and friendly. Many different options of candy from freshly baked chocolate to hard candies to soft candies even to name brand candies. Overall a nice environment and atmosphere, that anyone would enjoy.
Lots of candy, very fun place
Best candy and sweets store in town. Will never go anywhere else for our sweet tooth needs. The owners are also very friendly and accommodating. Will return frequently and a great location.
Great selection of all types of candy. It is pricy, but youre paying for the experience and the atmosphere.
Super cool place, probably the only place Ive ever been that lets you sample some of the bulk candies. Im fairly sure they have almost every candy imaginable. Had to go back twice just to process and select some candies. Its a candy overload and its awesome!!!
Over priced/Expensive.
Great candy store, the gentleman that owns the store has such a wonderful personalityLove the prices too
So much good stuff too choose from
Oh. I am sooo in love with this place and they have such an awesome selection of the candies ii grew up on.
Love this place. They always let you have free samples of your choice and they have amazing taffy and chocolates. If u have a sweet tooth pop into here and have a blast.
Cute little shop in old sac area. It was a bit chintzy for my likes in a candy store though. While it was cool to see some of these, especially the older classic staples it was simply not cool enough for me to spend the $$ it was priced out at.Store was nice and clean, easy to navigate if not a bit overwhelming with all the options available. Everything was clearly labeled, just a bit tightly packed.
Awesome as always
The very best
The staff is awesome and so sweet. My daughter picked out a lollipop and the cashier noticed it was cracked under the wrapper, so he gave us a different one and gave my daughter a candy necklace! Theyre also great with letting you sample some of the candies!
This shop is a must stop for our family every time were in Old Town. Full of candy by the basketful and the friendliest staff youll ever meet. Plus, youre welcome to grab a couple of free samples. Whats not to love?!
Whoa thousands thousands of candies and mostly some of them that been remind me when I was little girl
This is a great candy store however I could do without the creepy clowns everywhere. A huge turn off if you have kids. This place should be fun not creapy.
My family and I LOVED this place! They have suuuch a huge variety of candy and the cool part was when I found candy from my childhood! It was so great!
Love this place! You get two free samples of most candies in their store. They have everything like old style candy, chocolate covered crickets, old school gum, sour straws, etc. Probably one of my favorite candy shops thus far!
I love this place! Ive been coming here since I was a kid. Its definitely authentic and a special place and a go to in Sacramento. You can try all of the toffee and its sold by the weight. Its supper old school, so youll feel like you walked into a time vortex into the past. The location is in Old Sac and it has the wild west kind of vibes. Its pretty cool!
Every imaginable candy treat you could ever need or want😋
We love stopping here every time we go to Sacramento! They allow you to sample several varieties of candy before your purchase. And there are barrels upon barrels of old fashioned as well as modern candies, plus a whole side room section of probably a hundred or more flavors of salt-water taffies. Sometimes theyll do a challenge and ask volunteers to try something unusual such as a candied cricket or an extra hot candy. There are many candy stores in Old Town but this one is a must!
So many many candies. You can try one or two to see if you like it. Some were from my youth that I havent seen for a while. Great visit and yes, I did buy some ! 😁
Whatever we are in town walking about we always stop and go through the store. This is a great place to go and look at all the different kinds salt water taffy that they offer. We always end up buying stuff for us and our neighbors back home. There product is nice and fresh and very good. It is always a treat to watch children walking through the stores weather disbelieving look on their faces.
Loads of different candies available, and awesome staff! You can fill up a bag for a very cheap price and every summer they have a free sample day! Must visit.
Awesome variety of candies. As opposed to having hundreds of flavors of saltwater candy, this place seems to have hundreds of different types of candy, including some old fashioned candies. A fun little place to visit.
Everything you could ever want in a candy store except the staff were like zombies. I had to mention something to the manager. If you’re going to sale anything, put on a cheerful face and greet people. I still take my sweet tooth visitors on a stroll through there just because. Never had anyone not find something they liked.
Love the employees! they are so friendly and helpful. The owner has a dry personality (not very personable) but he makes up for it in his fast service and free samples.
Its a fun place. They let you pick out one or two samples and try them. The guy at the cash register was giving out chocolate-covered crickets to anyone who is brave enough to try them.
If you like eating candy this is heaven! Fairly large store with so many different candies. Even the ones when you were a kid are there. They do have some candies you can try while youre in the store, which is always nice to have candy while youre buying candy.
This store has the absolute largest candy selection I have ever seen in my life. Its an amazing selection of sweets of all kinds. Gummies, chocolate truffles, hard candies, candy bars, bubble gum, and literally every type of sweet you can imagine. Their selection of saltwater taffy alone is worth the visit! Theres an impressive selection and youll definitely feel like youre as close as you can get to Willy Wonkas factory. They also allow a selection of free samples! Always a great place to visit when youre in Old Town Sacramento.
