Boo! It is almost Halloween, and we are ready to inhale as much candy as possible. Chocolate, pixie sticks and gummy worms are plentiful on this spooky holiday. We are glad we have these classic treats, but Washington DC has many unique candy shops that we are also excited to try on this “cheat day” every year. Head out with some friends from The Louis and try this unique candy on Halloween this year.

Marshmallows, licorice, chocolate and more are all found within the walls of The Sugar Cube. This gourmet candy store features old and new candies alike with many options to choose from. If you want something that is unique, try their truffles and sea salt caramels for Halloween this year. The Sugar Cube also has unique twists on your favorites like pink grapefruit gummy bears. Make sure to sign up the kids for their own candy making classes or campus.
