Candy stores in Edmonton for the kid in you

Like Ronald Reagan said once, “You can tell a lot about a fellow’s character by his way of eating jellybeans.” And I agree, your choice of candy goes a long way in determining whether we’ll get along or not. Once you walk into these shops, you won’t know what to do with yourself. You’ll feel like, well, a kid in a candy store.

B Sweet

1
1324-8882 170 Street NW, Edmonton, AB T5T 4J2

This candy store, located inside West Edmonton Mall, sells tons of different kinds of M&Ms, Jelly Belly jellybeans and more. It’s tucked away just by the Ice Palace, so you likely won’t find it unless you go looking for it – but it’s worth finding!

Nut Shoppe The

2
1074-9499 137 Ave NW, Edmonton, AB T5E 5R8

Located inside the Northgate Mall, this shop sells hard ice cream, chocolates, candies and much more. Everything is nicely displayed in glass containers so you know what you’re getting and it’s just a fun place to shop for your goodies. Also, because there aren’t bulks of products on the shelves, you know everything is fresh.

Carol's Quality Sweets

12519 102 Ave, Edmonton, AB T5N 0M4

Situated in the Old Glenora neighbourhood, this family operated sweets shop is one of a kind. They offer authentic British treats, Dutch licorice and Haribo candy from Europe. But what’s truly special about Carol’s is that Carol (and her husband Grant) make their own chocolate sweets. Using only the best Belgium chocolate and real liqueurs, there’s nothing quite like it. My personal favourite is Grant’s original marshmallow and crunchy peanut brittle.

Candy Bouquet

12 Perron St, St. Albert, AB T8N 1E4

This place makes the cut because you can actually send your loved ones in need of a sugar-pick-me-up a bouquet of - you guessed it - candies. Forget flowers, forget fruit, this is where it’s at ladies and gents. So send that special someone a bouquet of popcorn or chocolate truffles.
