When skies are grey or the day just won’t end, there are a few things that can bring a smile to a weary face. One such thing is a visit to Bons Scoops. A step inside this small Shaughnessy Village candy emporium can bring the inner child out of even the most serious among us. “We carry a bewildering selection of candy, sweets and fine chocolates – over 500 varieties, in fact,” explains Claudia Kim, the store’s owner. “There’s something here for any type of sweet tooth!”
And with every nook and cranny of the store bursting with colourful candy, Bons Scoops is like something out of an era gone by. For added interest and convenience, the store also stocks an assortment of teas, fudge, caramels, and fine herbs and spices, in addition to nuts and sugar-free candy. Chocolates and truffles are also on offer, with renowned Belgian brand Leonidas front-and-centre.
