My sweet tooth is my Achilles heel. There is no satisfying the cravings and I don’t possess the willpower (or desire) to cut sugar out of my life. You only live once, right?! Now candy found at the corner store holds little interest to me (except sour keys…oh, heavenly sour keys). However, add some charm, character and unique candy treasures and I’m throwing my credit card on the counter and bringing home more goodies than I should. In order to ensure I’m not alone in my sweet indulgences, I’ve rounded up a list of candy stores in Vancouver and throughout the Lower Mainland. Enjoy!

Boutique Candy Stores in Metro Vancouver:

Abbotsford

Clayburn Village Store & Tea Shop 
One side of this heritage building is a quaint British tea shop. An absolute favourite of ours to visit. The other side is a candy store like no others. As you wander the creaking floorboards and peer through the hundreds of glass jars, you know picking just a few treats to bring home is going to be a monumental task. The owners travel to England three times a year and delicious sweets follow them home every time.
