Floor-to-ceiling shelves fill this Lower East Side fixture with retro sweets, bulk chocolates, and rare imports.
Description
Family-run since 1937, this 1,000-square-foot shop packs over 2,000 candy varieties into its tight layout. The selection spans modern sweets and chocolates by the pound alongside harder-to-find items like classic flat taffy, halvah, dried fruits, nuts, and retro novelties. Visitors browse crowded tables and low shelves to hunt down classic treats rarely stocked elsewhere.
