IT’SUGAR

This place giant candy and retro candy and nostalgia all around. However I like it especially for the giant candy which is a novelty I can never tire of. I mean how can one ever tire of E-​cup sized tootsie pops? I know I can’t.
The staff here is nice and don’t take offense if you feel watched at times. Thieves love candy stores. They also have other merchandise here of the novelty sort. And tee shirts and what not. Watch out for the bums wandering in from the street sometimes. They love this store because bums are dumb and think the vat candy is free. They just wander in and help themselves! I saw one just walk in and begin to dig his dirty hands through all the candy bins! It was disgusting. Employee Julie kicked him out fast enough, though. She’s tough, that one. But sweet, too. I wouldn’t mess with her, though!
It’s a cool store, just look at the pics. Great candy, and candy oriented items. Clean, bright, fun, bums. Just like Old Pasadena itself. Can’t go wrong, really.

Love this place… Whenever I have a candy craving and I’m in the area, this is definitely a place I have to stop by! Even without a craving, the eclectic humor and goodies found here is always enticing and fun to look at. They have tons of different types of candy to choose from as well, and everything is weighed in a nice little baggy… It is a bit pricey though, so try not to overload the bag too much or you will end up breaking the bank!

Good spot but the selection was not all i expected

So I’ve seen this franchise in some of their other locations. I’ve seen the one in Santa Monica, there’s one somewhere near Venice beach, and I’ve visited one up in San Francisco. All of the other times, I was nowhere near my car, and I didn’t want to risk carrying sugar and chocolate several miles back to a hot car on a hot day. This time, the car was just a bit down the road, and it wasn’t so super hot. This might be a problem for me. I tend to be that proverbial ‘kid in a candy shop’ people talk about.
I walked in and did the quick once over, checking things out, seeing what they had. I should have left right then and there. They’ve got the standard candies, and they’ve got lots of candy related t-​shirts, pillows and some clever and entertaining office supplies.
But then I began a second trip round the store, closer investigation of the items that got me to begin picking items up. I started with PEZ candies. I like PEZ candies. Can’t put them in dispensers, but do enjoy putting them in my mouth. Then I saw candy cigarettes. I hadn’t seen them in years. Then I picked up a jar of FLUFF, pancake flavored jelly beans, beer flavored jelly beans… bacon flavored pop rocks, some weird Asian ice cream cone candy thing. Some regular pop rocks… and of course I’ll buy that dollar candy that will save children with cancer. You’re welcome children with cancer. Thirty dollars later, I left the store with a cute lil bag full of candy and sugar. Lots of lil purchases add up quick at this place.
Now some days later, I have devoured most of the candy, and even shared much of it with friends. I haven’t eaten all of the candy by myself. It’s all good and tasty and sugar-​buzz inducing. I join my friends on their smoke breaks and blow powdered sugar in their faces. I really do enjoy my candy. It reminds me of much simpler times when I was little, and didn’t have to worry about employment or bills or health issues induced by eating too much candy.
Yes, I’ll probably go back.

This place is just wacky! If Willy Wonka himself came into this place, he’d probably feel right at home.
Located on the «trendy» part of Colorado Blvd. in Pasadena lies a place where candy is literally staged for consumption from wall to wall. This place has all the regular candies you would expect to find at a candy store such as gummy bears, Reece’s pieces and licorice. There is a little twist though… a lot of their candy is Huuge! What do I mean by that? Have you ever had a Snickers bar as big as your forearm? A gummy bear that’s as large as a stuffed one? How about a box of Nerds candy that’s almost as big as a cereal box? Speaking of cereal, if you’re feeling a little blocked up while going #2, how about helping yourself to a bowl of delicious «Colon Blow» (apart of every nutritious breakfast) to help relax those bowels. Yes, they have great gag gifts like Colon Blow to give to your friends.
Check this place out for some good laughs and some great candy!
Cheers!

I went in there and bought a ton of things for Easter. The service was amazing. Great selection of novelty items and funny candy. It’s not cheap but worth it. They did have some sale items that were perfect. The man who helped me today was really great. He worked his butt off making sure people were finding what they needed and went above and beyond to help and serve. Friday 4÷3÷15. Wish I could remember his name. Thanks! I’ll be back.

This place is sooooooooo cool! Now I totally know where to go when I need 5lbs of Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups! Other than that, there is an amazing variety of everything here so I really did feel like I hit the jackpot. The staff was super, super nice and they actually seemed interested and excited to help! I usually go to Rocket Fizz. but they haven’t been carrying the candies we both like so it’s nice to know there is an alternative right around the corner. I am totally going back because they have crazy cat lady stuff and Hello Kitty stuff so I am one happy girl. Along with specialty candy, they have tubs and tubs of candy you can by the pound, which, in theory, is the same amount as the stores in the malls, but much better quality and service. I hope this story sticks around for a while because they carry such a neat variety that I know everyone, and anyone, can enjoy!

It’s Sugar is right! They have everything you could ever imagine. I visited this store in hopes to find specialty items for my 12 year old’s Birthday party. The variety was pleasantly overwhelming and the staff was friendly and helpful.

My first time here with my husband and baby. The employees were very friendly. I got the candy in the Chinese looking type of box. I had to chuckle when I went to pay. So worth it. Thank you guys for your help and friendly service. I would definitely come back if I’m in town.

I am a big fan of sweets more specifically pastries, while candies are not similar in any way I decided to go into this candy shop because I liked the way it looked. The shop looked like a store out the Wonka Factory. It was very colourfull and lively.
The selection of candy was very impressive plus they had large selection of all the popular chocolate bars and when I say large I mean huge! I spent about 2 hours looking through all the candy selection; the best part is that you are welcome to taste it! You can. eat the candy! I only had a few I did not want to be a pig. I ended up buying some chocolate and a coconut candy I had never seen nor tried.
The store staff are surprisingly very informed about all things concerning candy. I did not know there was much to know about it. Plus the staff is very helpful and friendly. I had a great time in the store left with a little more knowledge of candy and with a new coconut treat for later.

My only complaint about this shop is that it is in Pasadena, where parking is a nightmare. A place this awesome needs a private lot or a new location so you can go every week. They have hilarious novelty items for adults (like Blue Ball gum), mega large chocolate bars, and some of the most unique delicious jelly beans and gummies. I can’t wait to go back.

I’m all about being a big kid sometimes so when I say it’s like I’m a big kid in a candy store, I’m not lying!
I love the store, especially the City Walk location, even though this store is a smaller version of the City Walk location. Perfect for adults and children when you need to get your sugar fix. They will definitely take care of you!
They specialize in unique candies, or candies that might be hard to find. If you’re looking for strange, funny, or unusual gift this is your place. They have humongous candy bars, gummy bears, lollipops and tons of other fun candy!
For Christmas they had their humongous candy in huge gift baskets, huge gingerbread houses and humongous chocolate Santa’s. It was kind of like entering Willy Wonka’s Chocolate factory!
This place is fully stocked with items from the movie Frozen, for children and adults. They also have a gag gift section where you will find «Blue Balls» gumballs, BYOB «Bring your own Bears» (gummy bears), and candy pacifiers. They also have fun candy bars with funny sayings on them, «Hangry», or «Cheat Day».
The store is a little pricey, but pretty standard for a specialized candy. There is an Ipic theaters right around the corner, so make sure you stop and get some candy before your movie!

The name says it perfectly, they carry a lot of sugar. Many items you won’t find in a typical market, but will find in tourist areas such as Downtown Disney or Fsherman’s Wharf in SF.
Example: 1 lb Snickers, 1+lb of Kit Kat or huge Hershey’s Kisses. They also carry some fun novelty items like fridge magnets & SNL themed candies. The place is colorful, but it’s almost a sensory overload.
This, along with other stores took over the Barnes & Noble spot. I’m still not sure what a candy novelty store like this is doing in Old Towne Pasadena. Perhaps if I take out of town visitors here, they may want to get something, but I can’t imagine locals buying candy from here. But should the need arise, I guess I don’t need to drive over an hour to get giant blocks of chocolate.

Candy, chocolate & goodies galore! Today was their grand opening, and they gave away free Marilyn Monroe mints with your purchase. Like any good ‘ol sweets shop, you can buy candy by the weight. Bunch of random stuff they sell too, for laughs & somewhat candy related. Kudos to the sugar free desserts!
