Candy Craze Pop & Ice Cream sits snugly on Clarence Street, offering a vibrant stop for anyone with a sweet tooth or a curiosity for unique snacks. This candy store stands out in downtown Brantford not just for its array of colorful treats but for its eclectic mix that includes nostalgic candies, international snacks—like Chinese candies and noodles—and a notable selection of sodas that can be hard to find elsewhere around town.

Though the space inside is on the cozy side, the store maximizes its shelves to pack in a surprising variety of goodies, making it a spot where you can easily linger to explore shelves loaded with everything from classic chocolate bars to novelty chips and cereals. Because the shop isn’t huge, it can feel a bit tight during busy times, but the friendly and outgoing staff help keep the mood light, greeting visitors with smiles and ready to offer recommendations whether you're after a candy fix or the soft serve ice cream their regulars rave about.

This store feels well-suited to afternoon visits or weekend strolls when locals and visitors alike are in the mood for a sweet break or looking to pick up unique treats that aren’t part of the usual grocery run. Ice cream lovers especially will find something to cheer about here, with generous soft serve portions and a reputation for exceptional quality that draws repeat customers. The combination of candy store and ice cream spot creates a casual, approachable vibe—part small-town charm, part quirky candy curiosity shop.

Whether you’re after a quick nostalgia hit, a gift for a kid or kid-at-heart, or just a place to grab a soft-serve cone on a warm day, Candy Craze Pop & Ice Cream fits nicely into Brantford’s local scene as a cheerful, indulgent pause from the everyday. Its location downtown makes it accessible to foot traffic looking to mix a bit of candy shopping with exploring the area's other local offerings.

It's a little small so it gets crowded at certain times but it's an amazing little candy shop with lots of unique stuff. The prices are great and the staff were very pleasant and outgoing. We will definitely be returning. It's worth the trip if you haven't been yet. Check it out.

A fantastic little candy store located in downtown Brantford! Such an incredible selection of candies that really can't be found anywhere else. Also, plenty of sodas to choose from too! The shop doesn't have a whole lot of room to move around, but they really did a great job of stocking so many items with the limited space they have! I highly recommend you visit this store if you like candy!

There are so many products to see in this store! Candy, drinks, chips, freeze dried candy. They even have the big Costco size jars of Kalamata olives and crickets! The lovely lady there the other day was so kind and offered us samples of their freeze dried candy. I found the prices to be reasonable for a convenience store.

I've shopped here off and on for a few years now and I can say without a doubt that its one of my favorite stores to stop at when I have some extra money. There's always an interesting selection of different snacks and drinks to browse and the employees are always very helpful and extremely friendly. I also recommend the ice cream shop they have beside the store. All in all, great quality, good prices. Couldn't recommend it enough
