The Confectionery

The Confectionery is like one of those old school candy shops that you see in the movie. You walk inside and you're surrounded by literally a bunch of candy. The candy ranges from your normal chocolate candy variety to gummy candy, and then they have a section of like normal store brand candy.They are a local store but I'm not 100% sure if the candy is made locally. They have a very good selection of candy and if you don't see something, you can ask the staff to see if they can get something similar or make you a custom bag. They have more things behind the counter.I got some gummy bears and sour strips. The gummy bears are really good, and they do taste like the fruit that they are supposed to represent such as green apple, pineapple, strawberry, etc. the texture is chewy but not stick to your teeth chewy. The sourstrips I got were just okay. It has a weird texture that my jaw gets tired of chewing it, however it's really thin and flat so I'm not sure what's up with that. The sour taste is strong, much stronger than other brands. So with all these different candy variety's, there isa caveat. The price. If you take a normal bag of gummy bears from your local super market, it will cost you around 2 dollars. Here, a pound of gummy bears is 16 dollars and there isn't much gummy bears in a pound. You can ask them to get you a smaller bag/portion if their prepared bags are out of your price range. Overall, definitely check it out and amaze yourself with this great candy store!

Great service and friendly staff! Delicious candy and a cute, aesthetic decor. I come here frequently and they always have my favorite candy in stock as well as new candy for me to try. Highly recommend this place!

The service is outstanding, ambiance is pretty, and have a lot of variety of candy to eat.

Oh man ... my long search for a high quality and tasty candy shop in Seattle is finally over! If you've been looking around for great chocolate and are about to give up hope, no worries my friend. You'll find it in The Confectionery!They have a huge selection of pre-wrapped candies and treats, but their real treasure are their fresh selections behind the counter. Coming here, you have to have some of their chocolates and make a bag or box to go. Milk and dark chocolate lovers will be happy with so many flavors and kinds to chose from. At this stop, I got some of wife's favorites and she loved them all (marshmallow, coconut, turtles, caramels, and mints). For me, I got one of their original peanut butter cups --- I simply can't resist those, as they're my favorite!They are pretty pricey for chocolates, but it's so worth it. So much better than the cheap box stuff you get at the drug store and better than the other local shops that many people go to (I won't say the name, but most people can "see" them when they go to the mall). The Confectionery is well worth the higher price and worth fighting the crowds at the U-Village. I'll be back for boxes for special occasions and for when we have that yummy chocolate craving!

Rude. This store is not dog friendly despite dogs being allowed at UVillage. My 5 year old daughter had her new puppy in a stroller and we were told we were not welcome. We were rudely asked to leave. Doesn't make sense as even Shake Shack allows dogs. Will never spend another dime in this business..

Oh my word! I was in CANDY heaven! They have some interesting items from hard candy, chocolate and cream filled candy I had a hard time choosing. Plus the holiday products made it even harder.I kept gravitating to the peppermint items but some how my eye caught wind of this sour strawberry cream filled bag of candy. And I ended up with the last package. Thank God!In the middle of the sour strawberry candy is this creamy cream filling. It was delicious it was in a little bag that cost $7.50. Was it worth it? Oh yes it was!I found out from the cashier that it's their most popular item. Indeed it is!The decor of the shop is beautiful but I was so afraid of breaking the many glass containers that separated all the items.If you love candy you will not be disappointed! Go get some soon!

I was shocked when my kid came in here because he's not big on candy so for him to buy the grads some candy was different. But I'm glad that I came here. They have all types of candy and cute little bags. The people were so nice when we entered and I appreciated not being followed around. I forget what I was looking for, but I got some sour candies for my niece and my husband found something too. If in the area, I'd come back for sure. This place was a delight!

I came here after another candy store in the area was closed. I'm so glad I did. This is a very cute candy store with great service. I especially love all of the holiday themed treats. This is a really cute place!Parking is always tricky in this shopping center. You should expect to drive around looking for parking for a small while. Be patient. It's a beautiful mall. It's worth waiting for a parking spot to experience this mall, especially on a sunny day! I sent the candy out as a gift. I wish I had taken more photos, but if you're looking for retro candy they do carry the old school candy cigarettes. Bubble gum and hard candy versions. I also got gumdrops, lots of Halloween themed gummies and Halloween chocolate covered Oreos. I got taffy and chocolates. There's so much cool stuff!

I came upon this darling candy shop while exploring the U Village and picked up a few things to sample. They have every candy and chocolate imaginable in the most beautiful little store; they are very popular with folks of all ages and are definitely worth a visit if you're in the area with a sweet tooth.

5/5 store! They have the best selection of unique artisan candies in the entirety of the Seattle metropolitan area. All the offerings are laid out in a very easy to browse format so it's easy to find favorites old and new. All of the above is great. But what sets this store apart is the amazing, knowledgeable staff. They are all fluent in the many candies offered at the store and do a great job making personal recommendations. Vibes and ambiance are superb all around. Best candy store in America!
