"Sweet and Swedish" Candy Store, Sockerbit

You will be singing, Come with me and we’ll be in a world of pure imagination. That’s the first thing that came to my mind the theme from “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” (1971) film version with the oompa loompas when I walked inside this store. The only thing this is not Willie Wonka’s chocolate factory this is healthy, fresh candy, that gives you pure ingredients, no trans fats, saturated fats, no dyes, and it is delicious tasting candy. There are no GMOs (Genetically Modified Organisms) in this candy, no fructose corn syrup or ingredients that are 

not pure for or easy to digest certain foods. I got an opportunity to work in the store doing a temp assignment and you know what I am glad I did. It kind of introduced me into what happens working in a candy store. It was a great opportunity and happy that I found this cute, quaint little gem in the big city of New York.

There are thousands of restaurants from all walks of life. That is one of the greatest things about living in New York.  You can go to any part of the city and find some store, a restaurant that you will fall in love with immediately. I have a bit of a sweet tooth hence the name (Honey Brown Sugar) and I try to make sure I always indulge just a little bit. Its nothing wrong with treating yourself let’s say twice a month. This Scandinavian store has just that a large variety of delicious candies with gummies, chocolate, fruit candies, licorice, and hard candies. The delicious confections are in a large rainbow arrangement of sorts. One thing I would tell you the store is visually pure white, you must be very aware and pay attention to what you are taking and being mindful of keeping the store neat and pristine.

The managers work very hard on providing each and every customer with a pleasant, fun, enjoyable, and exciting experience. People from all walks of life come into the store visiting from all over the world. One thing they provide their customers with an option to have their candy delivered and shipped to them.  The price of the candy comes to $12.99 for a pound of candy each.  They also specialize and have different Swedish snacks as well, and I have never seen boxed water one of the coolest ideas ever. Genius idea! I saw many parents coming in with their little toddlers and adult children as well. Some of the adults walked away with two or three bags. So they really enjoyed the shop and place.

When you are come to the west side of the city and you are tired from shopping down in the Meat Packing District, Midtown, Uptown, and checking Macy’s Herald Square, or any other store, stop and take a break from your busy day sight-seeing in New York City and come down to visit the shop that is putting many smiles on faces every day.  Sockerbit is located at 89 Christopher Street in the West Village near 7^th Avenue South.  Bring your children, your loved ones, and your appetite for something sweet.

Just as their saying goes on their t-shirts their slogan is “Have A Sweet Day!!!!” So from “Honey Brown Sugar” to you enjoy and have fun as well at Sockerbit . Visit http://www.sockerbit.com  

Now you know I had to put a couple of songs related to something sweet just for you my readers. Hope you get a chance to stop in or order from the store.
