On March 13, world-famous candy store, Dylan’s Candy Bar finally opened in Toronto. If you have a sweet-tooth, this is a spot you’re going to want to check out. Think lifesize lollipop trees, giant gumball machines, candy-themed accessories, colour coded rows of candies, and much more.
The U.S. born chain tweeted it now has a store in Terminal 1 at Toronto’s Pearson International Airport. Specifically, near Gate D20 – and rumoured to hit the shelves of Hudson’s Bay stores and to open outposts in Holt Renfrew. Let’s hope another store opens up in the downtown core ASAP.
According to CP24, the newly opened Toronto location is 1,100 square-feet, and has over 500 products, a chocolate station and sells dozens of varieties of candies, travel gear, accessories and other confectionery-themed products. In some US stores, there have party rooms, ice cream and dessert parlours, candy cocktail bars, and other extravagant sweet-related services. Now, we can only expect over the top desserts like this one:
Dylan’s Candy Bar was founded by Ralph Lauren’s daughter Dylan Lauren in 2001. Since then, the chain has blown up and has become a favourite of many celebrities.

If you love luxurious candies you may already be familiar with popular L.A. based candy brand Sugarfina. If you are a fan, you’ll be pleasantly pleased to hear that you no longer have to rely on delivery or shopping at other candy stores as Sugarfina has just announced its first standalone Canadian location.
Our friends at Retail-Insider are reporting that Sugarfina will be opening their first stand-alone Canadian location at Metropolis at Metrotown in Burnaby, British Columbia.
The 1000+ square foot retail space will be located on Metrotown’s ground floor across from the new Burnaby Uniqlo.
We’ll keep you posted as more news is released.
Los Angeles-based, luxury grownup candy retailer Sugarfina has partnered with a Canadian brokerage to open stores in this country. Up to now, the brand’s products have only been available in Canada at retailers such as Nordstrom.
The Sugarfina concept includes premium items made from high-quality ingredients, sourced directly from artisan candy makers around the globe. Products include gourmet chocolates, caramels, gummies, malt balls, liquorice and other delicious confections. Champagne-infused gummies and maple bourbon caramels have been popular, with celebrity endorsements helping grow brand awareness. In the summer of 2016, Sugarfina introduced Rosé rose-shaped gummy bears, which were so popular they sold out within two hours while traffic caused the company’s website to crash. The wait list grew to more than 18,000 people.
