Generic candy found at any gas station was extremely marked up. A packet of pop rocks $5 and a tube of sour slime candy was $15. Any gas station would sell these for $4 max. Although the prices are too expensive for a lot of the items, the ice cream is really good. Also the service was lovely.

Spent the evening walking around with my family and stop here to get hot chocolate, It was completely over priced for a Keurig hot chocolate, and tasted awful. Would like to highly suggest not to get hot chocolate from them. All and all it seems all very over priced! We spent $8 on a tiny cube of fudge.

Highway robbery. Candy that sells at CVS for $1.50 is $8 here. Prices aren't clearly marked either and when they are you're charged more at the register.

6.99 for a candy bar. Watched people like us walk in look at prices and leave. 9.99 for a single Pez dispenser. Nice store, good service, but prices were insane.
Kendra Tyler
Extremely over priced. wow! Thought i would take the kiddos and holy cow was it way over priced..... $3 for a rock candy s******* a tiny bag of candy corn was $8!!!! Ridiculous.
Abigail Miller
I love the variety of candy, but this place is SO overpriced. I'm unsure how they have been able to stay in business.

Seriously my kids love to go into a candy store every single place we go let me just say get over yourself SLO Sweets you carry nothing special you cannot get at Walgreens other than Gelato prepackaged jolly ranchers 8 in a bag $5, Halloween peeps $5.99 ridiculous you should be ashamed , and your employees spent more time talking to each other than customers, they guy in front of me was paying for his gelato purchase a whooping $51 and they wouldn't take his $100 bill seriously your high prices you had change for that...bad service and over priced so disappointing
My wife and I purchased 4 pieces of chocolates on Aug 25 at the Pine Street location: 1 Caramel Log @ $5.99, 1 Truffle @ $4.99, 1 Pecan Bar @ $5.99, and 1 English Toffee @ $5.99. (plus some cinnamon toothpicks @ $2.99) Once we got back to our Air BnB, we ate them. These chocolates are basically one or two bites at most. My wife and cut the English toffee and pecan bar in half to share. Both of us thought the chocolates had an odd flavor and we did not care for the taste. Almost like a cleaning solution flavor. The Truffle was actually good at one small bite. Since the bites were only one bite, we were very disappointed. And at 6 bucks for one English toffee bar and 6 bucks for one pecan bar, it was way overpriced for the quality ($25.95 total). I did not eat the carmel log, so I cannot comment on it.

Please don't purchase from this shop. Overpriced. Pay attention to their prices. A small bag of chips 9.00.

$4.99 for 1 truffle - wow. However, I was not disappointed. I got the Creme Brulee truffle. It was good - not the best I've ever had, definitely the most expensive. Great variety of flavors. Gelato variety was good, I didn't taste one.
Rory Barnett
I gave it 2 stars because the products and staff are fine but the prices are crazy. $30/lb for jelly beans??? I miss the old candy store on pine

Great things in there! The service was wonderful. I just found it a bit pricey. They have little blocks of fudge they sold individually what happened to selling fudge by the weight. Your kids will love it but the adult kids maybe not so much!
