Victoria Ice Cream & Fudge Factory

Like a west coast version of an Atlantic City, NJ candy shop. All your usual sweet tooth mass produced confections plus Canada inspired treats, plus gelato, plus fudge, and even a «gummy zone».

Stopped by here when I was in town for the evening. We purchased several of the maple filled cookies. They were a great price ($ 1 for 4) and we spent the last of our Canadian currency here. They also have a wide selection of fudge and other sweets as well as gift boxes that you can take home. A nice small shop with friendly staff and a wide variety of sweets.

My husband were in Victoria for only half a day on a cruise, and decided to wander the downtown area. I would LOVE to come back at night, because it’s a beautiful place but just not super exciting in the morning. We did discover this dessert company, though, and it was a great find!
They had a lot of different kinds of gelato, but more importantly for our visit, well over twenty kinds of FUDGE. Who doesn’t love fudge? They had regular varieties, like chocolate walnut, some a little bit more unique, like espresso or chocolate peanut butter, and some that seemed distinctly Canadian, like maple and salted maple. It was also on sale– buy one pound and get a half pound free, which was a great deal. We brought some back for souvenirs/​gifts, and ate some right away.
I am by no means a Victoria expert, but from my limited time there I’d definitely recommend making a stop for a quick fudge purchase.
