POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED
I love shops that make me feel nostalgic. Shops that feel like little hidden gems, full of treasures and sweets, and owners that get to know their patrons by name.

So when I saw posts come up from @candyfun101 with their sweets and capybara cuties, I knew that I absolutely HAD TO come and check it out.

This adorable candy, snacks, and gift shop, is located in what looks almost like a brick lighthouse, in the Seaside Outlet Mall. The lighthouse shape is incredibly fitting, since the owner and operator, Amanda, is an absolute SHINING LIGHT of a human being. She is so genuinely welcoming to everyone who walks through her doors, offering snack samples, and showcasing her edible bubbles that flow from an adorable sunflower bubble machine.

To visit Candy Fun 101,
Is to experience joy and heart,
And a place that welcomes you,
Just as you are.

Candies are carefully chosen for her shelves, coming from places all over the world, including Asia, South America, Europe, and more. With unusual flavors like string cheese gummies and pickle balls, and classic favorites like Ramune and their own line of Salt Water Taffy. From salty to sweet, there is something for all tastes and cravings.

Amanda sampled a Turkish Cotton Candy Roll for us today, and it was so amazing that I had to grab us a full box. I'm not usually a cotton candy person, because it's usually too sweet for my liking, but this has a subtle sweetness, and a more substantial texture that has more body to it than other cotton candy I've tried. I grabbed a box of the Pistachio flavor (with nuts!), along with some other goodies, and plan to share our samplings soon!

So do yourself a favor and stop by Candy Fun 101 in Seaside! Look for the adorable capybaras that line the walls and windows, hang out at the newly installed snack bar table, and try some goodies while you visit with an amazing human whose heart is absolute gold. ๐Ÿ’œ

Thank you Amanda & Candy Fun 101.
You make this 90's kid from Hawai'i feel like I'm back in my favorite childhood candy shops.
Happy and free. ๐Ÿ’œ
