The Candy Shoppe

Had a wonderful shopping experience at The Candy Shoppe today! It is a lovely shop with an amazing selection of candy and so much more! The fudge is soooo good! The waitstaff is delightful and I will definitely be returning! I love shopping local :)

I stumbled upon this place while walking along the streets of old Port Orchard. I should have read the reviews and got the fudge! I got several soft center chocolates - coffee, lemon, raspberry, huckleberry, and lemon. Sounds good, right? But other than the huckleberry the centers had very weak flavor and I wasn't too impressed. Next time I'll be sure to get the fudge or taffy!

I am a candy fan. Not just "I like candy", but "you can only find this type of Haribro in these countries" and "I can absolutely tell the difference Nordic, American and Australian licorice" kind of person. This place satisfies my particular sweet tooth :) It has almost everything I can think of, plus I try something new each time and haven't run out of new things to explore!The customer service is excellent. I'm always greeted and offered samples. There is an extensive selection of fudge, but I'm not a fudge person so I haven't tried it (though they always offer a taste). They also have truffles. However there is a chocolate place in town. I haven't (yet) done a shoot-out between the two. Perhaps on a slow weekend... Want cheap boring, generic candy? Go somewhere else. Get your tub of RedVines from Wal*Mart, your boing candy mix from Costco, and wonder why you're bored with the same old stuff. Want something unique? This is your place. It's not cheap, but it's worth it and much better than the SweetFactory type mall stores.

This place is nothing short of a chocoholic's dream.Their fudge, in particular, is to die for. So many flavors and they give samples so you always know you're going to enjoy what you purchase. I am especially fond of the chocolate peanut butter fudge but have tried many of their others and have never been disappointed.

I recently placed an order on line for a friend. I did it on a Sunday, fully expecting the order to go out on Monday. But my friend called me and said the gift had just been delivered on Sunday evening. Thank you Candy shoppe for your very personal attention to this. It has been and will continue to be the only place I will get my candy gifts.I just talked to my Mom for whom I purchased candy for her birthday. She loved everything I sent her.

Variety is the name of the game at Candy Shoppe. They specialize in fudge, but really, if it can be dipped in chocolate, they have it. Wife spotted this place out of the corner of her eye, so we stepped inside to check it out. The store is divided into two sides: Chocolate and Everything Else. But the more you dig, the more treasure you'll find. (Not just referring to the pirate paraphernalia inside). They have a really nice saltwater taffy selection, so we filled up a bag there first. next, I saw some barrels with bags of old-timey root beer candies, so I snatched up some of those. A small corner near the front also has special (possibly) handmade dog treats. We picked up a few for our dog, and she wolfed them down without even tasting them. Grand total was a little over ten dollars. For the amount of stuff we got, not bad at all. The guy behind the counter was very nice as well. Definitely worth a repeat visit.PROTIP: This store also specializes in 'Seagull Plop.' I recommend tasting it before looking at it.

I just happened to drive by this place on the way home from a work trip and decided to bring some fudge home for *ahem* the kids. This was a cute little mom and pop shop that had homemade fudge of a bunch of different flavors, plus a ton of prepackaged candies. I got 4 bricks of fudge, so got a fifth free, for a total of 1.25 lbs of fudge. Each one I got was soooo good! They were soft and really smooth, and tasted just like they should. The only thing I wish they had was sugarfree fudge or other candies, but they did have sugarfree taffy and licorice, so I made that work. But like I said, the fudge was soo good. Not grainy at all. Really well done. The person who helped me was really nice.

Classic candy shoppe vibe with candy in glass jars behind the counter. All types of taffy and licorice and new candy as well. I tried the dark chocolate caramel and the salted caramel - both were delicious. Reasonably priced.

The truffles & fudge were both really good. It's a cool throwback with candy in jars & kitchy gifts you may not find in a lot of places. But the best part was the customer service. The two women who were there when we passed through were so kind and made us feel like old friends.

Normally we adore this shop and have made special stops during trips just to buy fudge. Unfortunately, our trip today, January 2, 2021, shows that customer service is slipping. They have not been trained in ADA compliance. Tami tried to insist we remove our mobility trained service dog, who was wearing his vest, from the store. My daughter was willing to walk out without her fudge. But after waiting a year, I thanked her for her consideration, but I wasn't going to deny her because of someone's lack of training. Please enlighten your staff on the difference between Emotional Support Animals and trained Service Dogs. We have loved your shop for years.
