BonBon - A Swedish Candy Co.

The Best Candy Stores In NYC

"It’s easy to understand why this excellent Swedish candy store, with multiple locations, has a cult following. Not only do they sell hard-to-source treats with unique textures and vibrant flavors, but everything about BonBon is aesthetically pleasing, down to the pale pink paper bags and gold scoops. The candy (marshmallows, licorice, nougat, chocolate, and more) costs $4.50 per quarter pound. We haven’t tried anything here we wouldn’t gladly shove fistfuls of into our mouths, bags and pockets, but some highlights include the cloud-soft marshmallow mushrooms, the brain-zappingly sour raspberry pucker bottles, and the sour Rambo strawberry licorice tubes, filled with vanilla cream." - molly fitzpatrick, will hartman, willa moore
