Fferins of Brooklyn — Local services in New York

I rarely write reviews but I absolutely LOVE this shop! Sure it’s great for kids but I don’t have any of those. For adults, it’s nostalgic, foreign, and new/modern candy sold in quantities that allow you to treat yourself without going insane or having it around for days. It’s the perfect small treat for the sweet tooth, or the best place to go to stock up for a cool party or gift! The owners are kind and knowledgeable, but they also leave you alone to browse without feeling awkward. I’m so happy that this place exists - it allows me to indulge without feeling guilty and treat myself without feeling sick. I just love it. The vibe is perfectly nostalgic while also being contemporary. Refined but accessible. I really can’t say enough nice things about them....

What do you get for that special someone who has everything? A lollipop with a cricket 🦗 inside of it! No but really, this shop has a very eclectic variety of sweet treats and candies you can find for anyone! You can grab loose jelly beans and licorice by the pound. You can find relics of chewing gum you used to chew as a kid. You can even find obscure candy from foreign countries. There’s also souvenir toys the kids enjoy. A favorite is the hidden ice cream 🍦 in the back. Try the s’mores ice cream 👌🏼 or maybe the cricket lollipop really is more of your thing? Whatever sweet treat you fancy, find it at Fferins! Highly recommend this...

Complete local family shop. Can sometimes catch the owner's young kids stocking the shelves, which...
