Rehoboth Beach might be the Candy Capital of the United States – with Snyders, Candy Kitchen, Ibach’s and Dolles drawing tourists to their stores while they’re on vacation, and shipping orders for their famous treats throughout the country. But did you know there’s an amazing candy oasis hiding in the middle of Wilmington? Candy for All Occasions is perhaps the best candy store in Delaware, and wandering through the aisles to find your favorite sweet treat will remind you of your childhood, for sure.
Candy for All Occasions is a Wilmington candy shop that will make all of your dreams come true.
With hundreds of candy options, including old fashioned childhood favorites and new, trendy treats, you'll absolutely find something to suit your tastes here.
Baskets and baskets of homemade treats cover the display tables.
You'll see them as soon as you walk in - and you'll want to pick up one bag of everything! From chocolates to licorice, it's hard to control your impulses at this candy store in Delaware.
If you're not sure what you want, just get a little bit of everything! Bulk candy jars are my favorite - if I put a few raisins in, I can call a giant bag of M&Ms and nonpareils a trail mix, right?
Chocolate Covered Strawberries are my absolute favorite treat, and Candy for All Occasions makes them fresh daily with local strawberries. These juicy, sweet, handmade treats are the highlight of any trip to this candy store in Delaware. My mouth is watering already!
Just when you think the store couldn't get better, you'll notice the freezer and counter.
Yep, that's right, they have ice cream and frozen yogurt, too! I'm not even kidding. Candy for All Occasions stocks amazing hand-dipped ice cream and fresh, tangy frozen yogurt!
Of course, you can go wild with your cone and topping choices.
Pretzel cones are my favorite complement to the sweet ice cream, but they'll be happy to fill up a sugar, cake or even a waffle cone for you, too! And top it with what you like - you are basically in a topping store, anyway!
What would a Delaware candy store be without a dozen or more salt water taffy flavors? I love the cherry and root beer ones - if you have them together, it almost tastes like a Dr. Pepper flavor! Which one is your favorite?
Candy for All Occasions specializes in just that - party trays (like this one for a new UD student), custom candy baskets, favors for baby showers, bridal showers, weddings, bar mitzvahs and more - if you've got an event coming up, you have to consider them for your party needs. Your guests will be blown away.
Candy for All Occasions has two locations – one in Wilmington and one in Jennersville Pennsylvania.The address for Wilmington is 2211 Concord Pike Wilmington, DE 19803. You can also call ahead to ask if they’ve got your favorite treat, or to discuss party favor options, at (302) 654-9171.
