Sweet Shops in Norfolk

Sweet Shops in Norfolk

There was a time when it looked like sweet-shop favourites might disappear, as corner shops with sets of scales and shelves lined with clear jars of colourful sticky sweet treats became a thing of the past. A world without cherry lips, flying saucers, floral gums, violet creams, humbugs, toffees and chocolate limes by the quarter seemed feasible, but thanks to the wider trend for all things retro, there has been a resurgence of sweet emporiums and a renewed determination to keep those that never went away open on our high streets.

In these health-conscious times we have seen the introduction of many sugar-free varieties, gluten-free sweets, vegetarian and vegan friendly treats and nut and dairy free options; all of which can be found in Norfolk. Manufacturers are listening to consumers and moving with the times to cater for vegetarians, vegans, diabetics and those with Coeliac disease and in recent years sugar-free sweets have greatly improved and many now taste just as good as their sugared counterparts. Whilst we are all aware of the dangers of consuming too much sugar, a sweet treat now and again is surely ok?

Exquisite handmade chocolates and fudge, traditional boiled sweets, sugar mice, unusual gourmet flavoured jellies - whatever your favourite candy, chocolate or sugary treat, somewhere in Norfolk is sure to stock it. Whether you are visiting the area and are looking for edible holiday gifts and souvenirs or are local and just want a Saturday night treat for yourself, the kids or grandkids, Norfolk has it covered.

Here are some of the best places in Norfolk to stock up on your favourite sweet treats:
