Calling all candy connoisseurs, sweet treat savants, and confectionery collectors! This route is for you! Prepare to indulge in all things sweet (and maybe even a little bit savory) that Old Sacramento has to offer!

Kicking things off, let’s start our journey at Candy Heaven, a veritable time capsule of all things candy from days past, present, and future!

As our blood sugar begins to rise, we wander over to Munchies Salt Water Taffy for a taste of nostalgia that’ll keep you chewing for years to come!

Cozy candy store entrance with a pink and blue "Munchies Salt Water Taffy" sign. Rustic wooden porch, inviting open doors, vibrant, nostalgic feel.

It’s time to yodel your way on up and over to Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory for some confectionery perfection!

Four gourmet candy apples in small dishes are arranged in a row. Each is coated in toppings: crushed cookies, rainbow sprinkles, nuts, and chocolate drizzle. A cheerful and indulgent display.

Now we’re really feeling the rush! Thankfully, our next stop is just around the corner. Step inside Sacramento Sweets Co., an Old Sacramento staple for nearly 50 years, where you can find delicious popcorn, peanut brittle, and just about anything chocolate-dipped that you can think of.

A cozy candy shop with a glass counter displaying various nougats. Brass lamps hang above, and an American flag decorates the warm, inviting space.

Not too far now, we find ourselves drawn to a colorful doorway, down a flight of stairs, and into the land of confectionery imagination, where Cerealism awaits!

To give our walking shoes a bit of relief, our next stop is practically next door! Head over to the red sign marked Candy Barrel, where sweet treats, drinks, and candy from all over the world await!

Last, but certainly not least on our list is the famous Candy Land, where you will find barrels filled to the brim with every kind of candy your salivating mind can imagine!
