Village Sweets

Apples were delicious so sad they close please let us know if u go anywhere else and sell them or even if ur making them at home

Pricey, pricey, pricey! This place was A-​Ok, not the best I have ever had and I am not sure they worth the money. I had their mango fudge apple and well… maybe I should have had something else? I also bought some of the sour belts and they more expensive than the Sweet Factory at the mall!!! I may or may not give them another try when I roll back thru the neighborhood… not sure.

WHAT THE HECK happened to this place!!! There is a big sign saying they are moving 6 doors down… BUT NOT THERE!!! Strange to see really, I don’t know when they will be back up for business. It’s too bad really, they have great fudge and candy apples.

I am sad to report that Village Sweets is out of business. I had just discovered this family owned shop and loved their excellent fudge. It was a friendly little place and I’m really bummed that it’s closed. I’m also surprised because they were very busy when I was in the week prior to their closing and there was no indication they were shutting their doors. I hope they reopen somewhere else close by but there’s no indication of that.

First time here but it won’t be the last! Staff was friendly& the Tamarindo apple was DELICIOUS!

Still the best thing around for the sweet tooth. Great selection, clean, wonderfully friendly staff, and management that seems to understand the concept of the customer first! Always great tasting… and a wonderful family running the show!

Two words — the fudge. O M G — the fudge. So many options, so many choices and they let you sample ALL OF THEM! WOW! I definitely overindulged in their fudge but man, it was worth it. You can taste that it’s made in house by people that really, genuinely care about their product. We stopped in here on our way back from a nice trip to Uptown Whittier. I honestly had not heard of this place until we walked by on our way to the record store. I made sure my kids knew I had every intention of making a stop on our way back to the car.
If fudge isn’t your thing, not to worry! There are so many options here that if you leave empty handed you either a) filled up on samples and tapped out, b) didn’t plan on purchasing anything, c) a diabetic, d) crazy — but I’m not judging! :) They carry the basic stuff you’d find for less at the grocery store but they also sell some pretty cool stuff you wouldn’t see elsewhere — like a dispenser of Fun Dip (or whatever it’s called) in a variety of flavors — so you can buy a container (they also come in a variety of shapes) and fill it up to your heart’s content for $ 4. It’s pricey but honestly, you’re paying for the experience and the uniqueness of it — so there shouldn’t be sticker shock. OH — they also have these yummy soft caramels at the counter in either butter rum or sea salt. SO GOOD!
That said — the service is what really got me, hook, line & sinker. We were treated exceptionally well from the moment we set foot inside to the time we left. We got a chance to meet the owner and she told us about how the fudge is made and what went in to creating the store and of course, the killer location. She was really nice and warm and when you pair that with the deliciousness of her goodies, we will be back, for sure.

The staff here is super friendly and helpful if you want to sample something. They have lots of old school candy and a creative fudge and caramel bar in the back. The fudge here is pretty hard to resist even if you’re not a die hard fudge fan. Their different coated apples are the perfect way to cure a sweet tooth and share with a few friends. Always a must to visit when taking a stroll down Greenleaf!

I’m never disappointed by this place. Their fudge is art. Their service is as sweet as their products :) If you do not go here when you are in uptown Whittier, you’re missing out!

Finally went last Thursday, and it was so worth the drive! Got the famous Tamarindo Candy Apple, along with some fudge, and chocolates. The candy apple was so out of this world! One of the best flavor combos I’ve ever tasted. It definitely lived up to its hype. Their chocolates are also very delicious — I ate some on my drive home! I never liked dark chocolate, but maybe cause I never had good quality. Village Sweets’s dark chocolate was so delicious! None of that extra sugar taste like what you get when you eat american chocolate. Have yet to try the fudge, but I am saving those for New Years Eve. :) I’m going back to try the Chile Mango candy apple.

It’s a small, quaint, little candy shop. They have a good selection of fudge and candy/​caramel apples. They have a fairly good selection of packaged candy and other miscellaneous candy.
The employees were very helpful and knowledgable about their items they sold.
We bought a cheesecake apple, fudge, and one packaged candy. The cheesecake apple was delicious! They even ask if you want it cut up, and of course, we did! We wanted to enjoy some of it on our drive home. I would totally recommend the candy /​caramel apples — especially if they all taste as good as this one! They have many flavors of fudge, and they have a special where if you buy four, you get a piece for free! So, we did. We got rocky road, pumpkin cheesecake, chocolate peanut butter, cookies and cream, and chocolate cheesecake. So far, I’ve only tried the pumpkin cheesecake (⁴⁄₅) and the cookies and cream (³⁄₅). The pumpkin cheesecake fudge is different and good. The cookies and cream fudge has too many cookies in it, but it’s still good.
For all the items we bought, it came out to $ 25 something, which isn’t bad. I have to admit, though, that my favorite candy store is Powell’s on 2^nd Street in Long Beach, even if they don’t carry candy /​caramel apples or fudge.

$ 12 for a fudge covered «caramel apple.» Oh man is that pricey! With that being said, I would totally do it again!
It’s award winning fudge and because it’s a fudge covered apple and not a caramel covered apple I can see the rationale in the pricing.
Fudge is expensive. Award winning fudge is really expensive and with flavors like mango, Mexican spice and cotija covered cheesecake apples that pair well with white wine it’s also a gourmet grown up affair.

I LOVE this candy store… Their apples are delicious, my fave is the oreo covered one… Their fudge is also to die for.
The girls who work here are so sweet!

Great Store!
Unlike most businesses in uptown whittier; this one has been here a while, and I hope it stays that way. It’s a fun little shop to go to that most people miss when visiting.
I would say that most people should come to Whittier Just For This shop.
When I have been there I have Always been greeted with a smile,
Come to this location!
Great store!
Friendly Service!
Tons of Variety!

This place is amazing ! Wonderful assortment of sweets and a festive ambiance. The staff is friendly, patient and generous with samples.

Uhm.
It’s a candy store that also sells fudge.
And they let you try samples.
And the store is rarely packed so you can usually get your fix and leave within minutes.
And their staff are all super nice.
So. I mean.
Yeah, it’s 5 stars.
Why wouldn’t it be?
Pro Tip: If you want some fudge, be prepared to crack open your wallet a little more than you might expect.
It is worth it.

The dark chocolate rum was heaven but $ 4.50 and no real rum! Meh! I figure why not try it! I don’t come to the area often!
There were tons of candy all over the place but I didn’t like the fact that I didn’t see any price listing anywhere…

«Oh heck YAH!» was all I could say as I looked in to this little treasure from the outside and quickly looked for the door. Scurrying about I jumped in the store like Charlie entering the Wonka palace. My eyes could barely focus while looking around at all the cool candy and items throughout the store. Now, I know that many of these niche candy stores that are popping up here and there follow a similar pattern, old time candy and unique foreign sweets in barrels and bins filling the store. This place is similar and follows a bit of the pattern but the true treasures are at the back of the store.
I was told that they specialize in award winning fudge and amazing caramel apples as I quickly made my way to see the display. What they had was absolutely breath taking, assorted fudge with caramel apples lining the top of the glass shelving. The fudge looked amazing and after a few samples, I was not disappointed at all. For the traditional fudgies, (I just made that up, you get the gist) they have a rocky road that is absolutely diabolical. Not overly sweet or crystalized and injected with marshmallows and nuts in perfect harmony. I also tried and about died a peanut butter crunchy like version. Imagine a peanut butter fudge with like a crumbly, peanuty goodness topping on it. HOOKED! Boom, reel me in and box some of it up.
I also tried the spicy mango, which would be great if I was feeling a spicy sweet thing, but I was already in the mood to get to my rocky road. Another mention for the Tamarindo again, another one of those that would be fabulous if in the mood for it.
Customer service? impeccable. The lady behind the fudge counter made recommendations but that was not all. It was obvious that she took some pride in working there and was happy to talk about the awards and the fantastic attributes of the store, major kudos to the owners. Another helper checked me out and was just as pleasant with a bit of family owned flair to her. Makes sense? I guess what I am trying to say is that the shop does not feel like just any old retail shop. You walk in and things are just different, more homely, more comfortable and just makes you feel happy.

The place for Award winning FUDGE Voted best in LA.
And they also have a variety of candy apples!
I got the BACON (yes bacon!) White chocolate maple dipped Granny Smith apple.
My eyes lit up when I saw it.
I tried samples of the Award winning Fudge… omg I felt like I was going to get diabetes! ! (In a good way)
It’s so rich in flavores. Good texture. And also freshly made. Omg I’m def coming back!
I split the apple with my bestie, which they hand Slice for you and wrap up in a cute simple way.
The sweet and saltiness, smokey, of the bacon with the crisp tartness of the Granny Smith apple was just… freaking explosion of sin in my mouth.. omg it’s super delish and rich!
It is basically any Bacon lovers dream.
The ladies are very nice and tell you all you need to know about the Quality Goodies they have in store.
So hey if your craving something Sweet and Luxurious. …it’s never a bad thing to SPOIL yourself for some gourmet sweets!

I had an «oreo» covered in white choc. It did not taste like an Oreo, more like a knock-​off. The choc. it was dipped in was not very good. My mom makes choc. dipped Oreos, every year at Christmas, and those are delicious. This was definitely not. I paid $ 1.50 for it. Bad deal.
My friend did not enjoy her candy either. It was toffee in choc. and it was super stale.
Don’t think I’ll be back.
