What a FUN place! Bring your out-of-town guests here. The malt ball varieties alone are awesome! The game room has giant gummies on display, you can watch candy being made... Just a really neat place!

Dawn Jensen

Great place for a party or brunch . Booking a field trip would also provide a lot for kids to get interested in the science of candy .

EJ Price

Everything is awesome!! I got a few chocolates and the green tea ice cream , and the Thai coconut ice cream , too. The green tea is a little bitter but still really good, and their lollipops are bomb!!

Stephen Koontz

From the décor to the staff to the confectionary gloriousness, this place is one of my favorite stops in downtown Jacksonville. PLUS it's laced with Willy Wonka references.

Chuck Finley

A trippy candy house with a balcony inside their factory ! Mind-boggling selection of elegant chocolate and candy plus a dessert bar , the staff are extremely friendly and super awesome.

Erik Mueller

If you love chocolate , candy , or just feeling like a kid, this place is for you! Be sure to check out upstairs and watch them make the chocolate !

Laura Michael

Stop by the bar for a drink before wandering upstairs. The old fashioned is great! If you're hungry get the mini hot dogs

Took a class and not really worth the cost. Made 3 candy bars , gave us 2 scoops of ice cream and a 2 minute tour . Needs so much more! Good chocolate though. Peasants to the royal court.

Jason Crandell

Drinks and desserts and events for kids! Try the desert bar to talk to the staff !

sasha sunder

Things I used to eat as a child to new things to try like sodas and ice cream !

Amanda McDonald

Prices doubled on everything. You are no longer able to customize your own candy box as you can only select certain items. The ones my kids and I normally get are a no go. Can't afford it anymore

Rebecca Blankenship

Super fun! The staff is so welcoming!

Melanie Peterson
