The Candy Man Can!
404 East 73 Street
New York, NY 10021
If you are on the UES, make your way to The Sweet Shop NYC. This store resembles the candy shop from Willie Wonka (the Gene Wilder version of course!). The proprietor is a quirky candy lover and has stocked the store with incredible ice creams and vintage style candy from across the globe. I highly recommend the pretzel cone with whichever artisanal ice cream satisfies your sweet tooth. If you opt out of the cone, ice cream comes in a Chinese food container. Oh, and one more thing, keep your hands out of the candy jars to stay on the Candy Man’s good side. Closed Mondays, Open until 10PM other nights and 12PM Fridays and Saturdays.
