We were having lunch next door and decided to skip dessert so we could try cupcakes and ice cream at this place. We absolutely enjoyed the store. I had a gingerbread man cupcake which I truly enjoyed. My girlfriend had a blackberry ice cream which she enjoyed as well. The store had all different types of chocolates and candies. Definitely, give this place a shot, you will like it. Service was really good, the young lady was very helpful.

A very cute candy, sweet, ice cream and baked items store. We sampled a few things including the whoopie pies and it all was yummy. It has a small town feel and was very slow when we visited. They do have a restroom for customers and a few tables outside to eat your treats in nice weather. The people working were very young and not very knowledgeable about what they were selling but they were nice. Overall a perfect road trip stop!

I ordered the vanilla caramel which is ok. I also ordered the tiger butter fudge, it is only white chocolate with a layer of milk on top. Disappointed that there isn't any peanut butter in the fudge. Also the consistency of the fudge is weird and it has an off taste to it. Definitely not impressed with the product. The fudge I received is obviously not the same as in the pictures of your store on Google.Didn't even contact me for sending me the wrong item. Some customer service would be nice!!!!!

Had gotten a code for free candy and got partial shipping info as it had shipped but no tracking. I know it was free but never received it so that shows me this is not a place I would ever order from as I even emailed about it. I got an email for a review and I contacted them saying I didn’t want to give bad review since I didn’t get my item and that didn’t help so here is my review.

Very clean and spacious candy shop. They also have cake and other pastry items, as well as ice cream. Since I already went through 2 ice cream shops prior, I opted for lollipops (with the worm in it, yay protein!!) and bubblegum cigarettes. Additional, got dragon fruit lemonade with boba in it. Staff was attentive and quick during the rush as well.

I ordered the special deal of two bags for 19.99 with the priority shipping. I was exacted because it said that each bag had different candies in it. Both of the bags had the exact same candies in them and most of it was Easter candy.... Now, the candy is good but I was disappointed in the false advertising of each bag having different candies. If it wasn't for that, then I would happily give them a 5 and order more.

Stumbled upon this great little place. The staff was so friendly. I bought 6 cupcakes then realized I wasn't going straight home. They held my purchase so the wonderful chocolate toppers wouldn't melt. On my way out noticed another customer getting a decadent milk shake... will have to go back to try.Popped into this wonderful shop again July 28th to celebrate Harry Potters birthday. Absolutely loved our appropriately named treats and refreshing butter beer 🍺.

Walked in for my first visit and was immediately welcomed by an enthusiastic employee. Very impressed by her customer service skills and the selection! I even accidentally walked out without paying for my water: and went back in to pay- she was so nice!

Life is Sweet Is like walking into our own mini willy Wonka chocolate factory. The staff always make the environment fun and so happy. You seriously can't help but smile when your there. If I'm having a bad day I always know I can even just walk in for a smile, even just to window shop, it's an amazing place. Plus there's almost every candy you can imagine.

We went there with high hopes...very disappointed. Many of the bulk candies were stale. We got a 6 pack of their cupcakes. They were all different flavors. When we trieded them it was as if they were all the same... Sugar flavored. Stale and tiny for the price. The clerk was nice but that is all. Will not go back.

Delicious candy, so many choices. The fudge looked amazing!!!! Chocolate covered bacon though 😶😶 It was good however I'd recommend dark chocolate to enhance the flavor. Either way, this place is adorable, fun, and absolutely delicious!!!

The only place open that was serving ice cream, however the majority of flavors were sold out and the ones still left had freezer burn. The serve your own toppings during a pandemic doesn’t seem up to health code but whatever. The kid behind the counter asked if we wanted to leave room for toppings we said yes but there really wasn’t room for toppings anyway. We didn’t buy any candy.

The son of the owner (he stated his mother owns the shop) was very rude, filled with attitude and uninformed about the items in his families shop. We came into the shop around 4:45, a few other customers were in the store. We were looking around at the different candies while he assisted the other customers , then decided to get some ice cream. He complained about having to make it. As he was scooping the ice cream, he was scoffing and rolling his eyes. We asked about different topping types and he couldn’t tell us what they were, while he continued to scoff and roll his eyes. He placed the plastic container on the counter (unsealed) and my daughter who was holding an infant (so her hands were full) grabbed it off the counter, was not expecting for it to be opened, and it flipped open and fell on the ground. We then asked him if he could remake it, he complained that we were already in the store past closing and he doesn’t feel he needs to re make it. He started giving more attitude so we asked for his name/managers name, he then told us his family owns the shop and called my daughter a b*tch. We told him we won’t be purchasing anything (we had got 4 sundaes) and he said we aren’t worth the time. He proceeded to ask personal questions such as what my daughters credit score is? Very unprofessional and his mother really should seek better employees it is a very cute shop.

Cute store. I was excited about getting some cupcakes but visually the cupcake case was a mess and then upon having them for dessert shortly after leaving I was very disappointed to find that the cupcakes were very small and all but one of them was hard and tasted stale. Very overpriced for what you get. Staff was not helpful, customer service there could definitely be much improved. However, it was fun to see all the fun candy and a throw back to see candies from my childhood.

The store is great - the soft serve ice cream flavors are spot on! We love going there for all sorts of treats and the staff have always been super friendly to us and our son. The only reason it gets four stars instead of five is that, after having spent $12, we were unable to get a cup of water for our son. The staff (super friendly by the way, not their fault) clearly felt bad about asking us to buy the bottle water they had for sale. This is ridiculous. Every other store that serves ice cream in the area does not make you buy water after you've paid for ice cream. I understand if you don't buy anything, but seriously? You can't give a 3 year old a small cup to wash down his cupcake? That soured my experience here.

I take my son in here occasionally for a special treat. He loves it and the selection is massive like the good old candy stores. The staff has always been engaging and friendly. I give four starts because the chocolates are only so so.

Nice candy stop in Keene. The maple fudge with pieces of real maple candy was the star. The penuchi fudge was good and the pecan turtle and chocolate pretzel we got for our grandson were quite good also. Good selection of old fashion candies by the lb. The cupcakes looked good. Will give Ye Olde Goodie Shop some competition especially since these guys are open Sundays.

Remember those candy stores in the malls you would BEG your parents to let you go in? They were over priced, and you would pay about 20 dollars for a tiny little bag of candy. Not this place!I was super skeptical of ordering online from a candy shop, but my craving of chocolate rocks and chocolate covered gummy bears got the best of me.I lowkey thought this might be a scam, but when I got the shipping notification in my inbox I was quite literally as ‘happy as a kid in a candy store’The box came in today, and it was wrapped up super cute. I’m currently pending a COVID test, and haven’t been able to leave the house, and this made my entire day.I haven’t tried the chocolates (I can’t taste anything at the moment), BUT they got the approval of my tiny human!Will be ordering from them again, these would also make great gifts!!

Love this place! Staff is always friendly and welcoming, and the experience is unique. The boys (12 and 16) love being able to fill their own bags... and let's be honest, us adults love it too! Theres always a few staples (gummies, chocolates, etc) and something seasonal or new to try. The fudge is always to DIE for and we can never walk out with less than a pound! Stop by and check it out!

This is a very nice old-time candy store, which is what appealed to us when we went a few times last year. It's in a great downtown location, and has indoor and outdoor seating. They have a large selection of candy and chocolate, as well as ice cream. My daughter was temporarily in heaven while we were there!

I haven't been back since the owner cashed me out and told me my candy punch card was 'old' even though I had gotten it a week prior. They have a good candy selection although the Japanese candy section has gotten smaller over the years.

This place is amazing, friendly staff, amazing treats! I just wish their bubble tea was better. The next closest bubble tea shop is over an hour away. If the bubble tea was good, id buy it everyday, maybe even more than once !
