Oh. Em. Gee. Edie Bee's is one of my favourite places in the world. I cannot visit Lewes without stopping in here. I love gummies and candy, and Edie Bee's has dozens of varieties of gummies. They also have a huge selection of unique candy "fruit slice" flavours! They also sell packaged candies from assorted brands, like Philly's John & Kira's and L.A.'s Sugarfina. (I'm a huge fan of both - bonus.) Their artisanal chocolates from the front case are also amazing. Is this store like the typical "shoreside" candy store with fudge and penny candy? No. It is higher end and a little more expensive. If that's a factor, you've been forewarned.

I should warn you, this is the most expensive chocolate shop I've ever been to, but I have no regrets and I doubt you...
Read moreI think I went to this candy shop 3 times during my 5 day stay in lewes. Definitely my all time favorite candy store. For starters, the shop is so cute, with buckets of candy piled to the ceiling. I found that all of the candies in the shop were picked expertly. Not so many candies that it got overwhelming, but so many fun ones You don’t always see mixed with classics, as well as a few exotic flavors. Not necessarily cheap, but everyone was friendly and i just loved this store. would choose them over the candy Kitchen for beach sweets any day. Definitely drop by...
