Sugarfina

Received a gift which my son did not want. We went in and found something else he preferred. Salesperson would not exchange even though the candy box was unopened. We ended up purchasing the candy my son wanted but I will not return. Bad customer service although candy is good. They should have a better return policy.

Super pricy candy but worth it. Great quality goodness and allot of it is imported from various countries. The store is very cute and girl who works there is very nice. She gave out some samples, they were so good. A great place for a nice treat or gift for someone.

The cutest store ever! I love the paper wall and all the sale associates

Yes, the prices are kinda crazy high ($ 8 for a small box of gummies?), but it’s surprisingly worth it. We got some whiskey chocolates (surprisingly strong!) and sour gummy hearts, and they lasted for weeks. Each individual confection was delectable and fantastic — a great time was had by all.
Minus 1 star for the ambience — it’s way too bright and shiny in there. I nearly had a minor seizure from the glare, white walls, and bright bright white lights.

Sugarfina, you make my dreams come true. The walls are covered with beautiful boxes of colorful candy. All of the packaging is pretty enough to be a present on its own but you can also select fancy, custom wrapping should you choose.
The best part is the candy itself — it’s upscale. Classy. Creative. I feel as excited about walking into Sugarfina as the 5-​year-​old me felt about walking into a penny candy store on Cape Cod. I always know I’m going to discover something new, something delightful. The Hearts Afire (ginger heart-​shaped gummies), the Robin’s Egg Caramels, and anything booze-​infused are my favorites. But take a look around, spot something you like, and talk to a staff-​member — they’ll let you sample it on the spot. And try the samples of the day while you’re at it — it’s fun to be surprised.
I’ve always had a great experience at both locations of this store. It’s perfect for gifts, for when you want to treat yo’ self, for when you are out on a stroll and craving something sweet, for taking a friend or family member who is visiting the city… Really, I can craft any number of excuses to swing by. ;)

Shh. I ate a whole little box of #1 Swedish Fish without sharing any with my husband.
#sorrynotsorry because they were the best Swedish Fish I’ve ever had in my entire life.

Champagne gummy bears are my favorite gummies! Because of this place, I can no longer go to walgreens for $ 2 packs.
Very expensive. I can easily spend $ 50 in here. Beware.

my kind of candy store! modern and chic — im so in love with their flower wall– and their most popular candy is the CHAMPAGNE BEARS!!! i got the big box because the small wasnt enough. the big box is $ 20 but to me its worth it :)
there are so many things to choose from but the staff is very attentive in getting you samples. you can also create your own bento! i like that concept. there is also a variety of premade gift boxes that are great for gifts!
i would definitely come back for more candy.
btw, they are opening a Sugarfina in Santana Row, SJ too.

Willy Wonka has nothing on this place!
My friend and I were exploring San Francisco yesterday and saw the store and were actually drawn to how beautiful it looked. Ray greeted us with free samples of the Smores candy and the gummy pigs. My friend and I were so in awe from this store. Being that my friend and I are two teen girls, there’s no discrimination on candy. This store really has a HUGE variety in candy, did I mention you can sample any of the candy on the wall? Because you can! You can even make a ‘Candy bento box!’ I just loved the white and robins egg blue together in that store. My friend and I were actually saddened that we spent money at LUSH first because all that money would have been spent here. Being that this was my first time in this store, I was definitely pleased with it. Kudos for being the first candy store where I actually wanted to spend all my time AND my money in. I’ll definitely be back.
Hey Ray, I remembered your name! :)

Got to love the variety of gourmet candy here; however, do not love the prices. The smores candy was good, but a plastic container filled with maybe 10 pieces is $ 7, waaaayyy over priced!

Very cute store. Great décor. Lots of variety of candy and chocolate.
Great options for gifts or if you have a sweet tooth then this is your place.
I have several favorites. The choices are endless, you must try them all :)

As long as you accept the price of these sweets, they can be combined to create a pretty cool gift in sweet themes. There is tasting advertised but you can also request special tasting if you are keen

This candy shop feels like stepping into a Beverly Hills spa. The design and décor are outstanding. Of course, this also means outrageous prices. They took the concept of cheap gummy buckets and placed them into beautiful packaging with a 1,000x markup. Could be worth it for special occasions.

Delicate design and flavors! But pricey!!! I can spend hours here drooling over how pretty everything is.
FOOD: Out of the all of the candies I tried, I really liked 1) APHRODITES STRAWBERRY, and 2) PEACH BELLINI GUMMY BEAR. The aphrodites strawberry were HUGE and had actual strawberries inside. It did not look too great on the outside, but once I bit into it everything just melted together in my mouth. If you like fruits and dark chocolate then you should definitely give this a try!
PRICE: The candies are packaged in small cubes (3“x3“3″ approximately) and those cost $ 7-​$ 8, which is pretty pricey. For example, there was only 6 – 7 pieces in the aphrodites box. But the packing is SO CUTE and you just have to walk away with one of these.
SETTING: The store set up is almost like an art gallery where there are stands on the wall that displays different types of candies. Everything is lined up so nicely too! If you are ODC you will LOVE this place.
OVERALL IMPRESSION: Very cute candy shop for people with sweet tooth like me! But since everything is a bit pricey I guess it prevents me from buying everything and getting cavities. :D

Did somebody say candy?!
I popped into this beautiful space pretty much the day it opens because anything «gummy» calls my name, and I’m not a snob, gimme Haribo, gimme artisan. Anyhow, the space is absolutely beautiful. Think of it as the Tiffany’s for candy stores. Everything is beautifully and thoughtfully packaged and placed for easy access and reading. I particularly loved reading about the «gummies» I was drawn to; what country they hail from and what natural flavors are infused.
Yes the prices are expensive but what do you expect in SF? They must pay their rent, people. And this is candy, not yoga clothes.
Perfect for little gifts or when a sugar craving strikes.

What an amazing addition to Union Street!
It’s a high end candy boutique. It’s not the self serve and weigh kind. There are small plastic boxes with different kinds of candy. For the small size it’s $ 7 and for the larger box it’s $ 14. All of the candy is amazing and they will let you sample anything in the store. The lady working told me that the owners travel all around the world to source the best of the best and they sure do! YUM!
I will be back to do a little more damage to my wallet and my waistline!

What a simply charming candy boutique!
Sugarfina has really thought of it all as far as gifts: there are pre-​made sets for birthdays, Father’s Day, asking your friend to be maid of honor, bachelorette parties, and just «you’re awesome» gifts.
I opted to make my own custom bento box for a friend’s birthday. I chose malted milk balls that taste like fruit loops, chocolates that have scotch inside, and birthday cake caramels!
The store is gorgeous– it’s a feast for your eyes and tummy

Dessert is my thing. I’ve seen Sugarfina’s around LA but never gave it a try because I heard it was expensive. I decided to walk in and see what all the fuss was about. Immediately after I walked through the door I was greeted by an employee with two different samples: the mint chocolate chip caramels, and the peach bellini gummy. Both were sooo good! And I don’t even like gummy candies. They informed me that they have samples of anything. Not just any sample. These samples are prepackaged individually which is something I’ve never seen before. I tried the birthday cake caramel and the peanut butter toffee. The birthday cake caramel was underwhelming and the toffee was incredible. So my sister and I decided to pay the $ 7 for a box. The box looks really small but it actually lasted us all weekend.
The make really cute gift sets as well. I would definitely recommend coming here for a gift, because this candy is something everyone would love!

I have two very different experiences regarding the newest candy shop on Union Street which opened on Friday 5÷15÷15.
Experience #1: Tried to check out the candy shop on Saturday (⁵⁄₁₆) at approximately 5:00 pm, but was turned away due to a private event which was marketed online as their «VIP Champagne & Candy Party.» I walked away feeling pretty disappointed that I couldn’t check it out. I was told by a staff member to come back Sunday at 10:00 am. I wish they didn’t advertise their opening date for ⁵⁄₁₅ and then close the shop the following evening. Seems like it would have made more sense to do the private event as a soft opening and then advertise a later opening date to the public. But hey, that’s my own take on candy story openings, what do I know.
Experience #2: Walked in on Sunday (⁵⁄₁₇), not at 10:00 am though! I don’t love candy that much. Was offered to try the special of the day from a staff member who was dressed very well for a candy store. The store was spotless and arranged nicely with a open floor plan. Overall, it is marketed to perfection for the Marina/​Union St. crowd.
I browsed their signature turquoise bento boxes and fancy acrylic boxes that would make for really great crafty gifts if you are willing to spend the money. Below is a price breakdown for most of the treats in the boxes on the shelves:
The small acrylic cube boxes (3.3oz) — $ 7 to $ 9
The large acrylic cube boxes (12.5oz) — $ 18
Gummies I Wish I Tried But Didn’t Because I Didn’t Want to Spend $ 30
— Champagne Bears: Yum, actually made with real champagne!
— Peach Bellini: Filled with a juicy peach center and coated in sweet & sour sugar crystals. I wonder if they compete with the Harbio Peach Gummies.
Sugarfina is a nice addition to Union Street. Given their prices however, I’ll stick with Walgreens for my movie candy.
Store Hours:
Monday — Saturday: 10am — 9pm
Sunday: 11am — 7pm

Don’t bother showing up with something in mind; you’ll want to get everything anyway. The boxed wall is sorted in a gradient from gummies (left) to hards (right). Just grab a bunch of stuff. #srsly I fell into the trap of trying to «choose»… yyyyeahno. Ended up buying bacon choc and choc coffee beans. All-​black workers. #diversity
