Hello and welcome to the coolest candy blog in the Twin Cities! We know it’s hot out there, and we know that inside projects are really great these days (unless you have a pool, then definitely go outside and pool). Anyway, since summer is here, we figured it’s a great time to bring back our […]
Hello again! We are just poppin’ in today to share a few of our recent, favorite, Pinterest finds. Did you know we have a Pinterest page? In case you couldn’t guess–yes, it’s ALL about candy! We have everyday, seasonal, and holiday-themed candy boards that feature both candy related recipes and crafts. We have boards dedicated […]
Hello! How’s all the Christmas stuff going? There just seems to be so much this time of year, crammed into such a short period of time. It can feel so out-of-control. Now, we know we’re a bit biased–but, if the shopping season is starting to feel nuts to you, maybe consider heading into Anoka, and […]
Welcome back to your friendly, neighborhood, candy store blog! We’re so happy you’re here! We thought today, we’d add another post to our super fun (or so we think), summer candy craft series. We figure that whether you’re a bored kid on summer vacation, a parent who’s looking for ideas [for your bored summer vacay […]
Hello and welcome to summer vacation, kids! It’s such a free feeling to be out of school for a bit, huh? We’ve seen a lot of new faces in the shop lately–lots of young faces. :) We <3 it! We’ve also packed up a couple of really cute candy baskets for delivery–graduation, congratulations and ‘good job’ gifts […]
Hello and welcome back to your favorite, little, candy blog! (There aren’t too many candy blogs out there…we think that might be a safe assumption?) Since Memorial Day is coming right up, and that means summer is here–we thought we’d have a little summer time, crafty, fun around here. Between birthday, graduation, and housewarming parties, […]
Easter, every year, goes like this for us — Us: ‘Yay, the weather is getting warmer! Yay, the windows are open and the house feels clean! Yay, spring break! Yay, no more snow! Wait. OMGoodness. Easter is in five days!? WHAT!? How did this happen!? We are so behind!’ It goes from lollygagging around, to […]
Head’s up…there’s a little holiday comin’ your way. Saint Patrick’s Day is just around the corner and we’ve got some fun, home made, candy treat ideas for you on the blog today. (Also, we don’t mean little like it doesn’t matter. Calm your taters down. We just mean it’s no Easter, or anything.) We try […]
Well, since we’re Anoka’s favorite candy store, we probably shouldn’t admit this–but, we’re not really fans of those little, Valentine’s Day, conversation hearts. (Being a candy store, it seems like we should just love it all, right? We don’t.) When we were in Kindergarten, they were cool–since then, well, they’re kinda like the mini candy […]
Thanksgiving is here in just about a week–there aren’t a lot of Thanksgiving candies out on the market, or on our shelves, but we still have all the favorite retro and nostalgic ones! (And some newbies, too. :) ) Are you hosting this year? Or, are you heading out, and letting someone else do all […]
