What a lovely old-time candy shop in the middle of Collingswood New Jersey. The candy jar is filled with nostalgia candies and other delicious treats including freeze dried candy. The service is always great. They love to talk about candymaking and I love that they have the old candies I used to eat as a child, definitely worth a visit. Be ready to buy all the candy.

I absolutely love The Candy Jar! This cozy little candy shop in Collingswood, New Jersey is a true gem. I was thrilled to find they carried Dubai chocolate — available in milk and dark — which I was so excited to try. The shop is full of homemade chocolates, nostalgic candies, old-fashioned sodas, and a huge variety of sweets that brought back so many memories. They also had what looked like ice cream or sorbet — perfect for a hot day — although I didn’t try it this time, it looked absolutely delicious. The decor was exactly what you’d hope for in a candy shop — colorful, charming, and full

Cute little candy store that's local. Wish they did chocolate covered strawberries and such but besides that, great

There is a small outdoor seating area at street curb side. Past era memorabalia in the form of candy. Not everyone knows this but they also have ice cream and gelato. Worth the parking aggravation. Many shops shops directly in the Collingwood / Haddon Ave. might be closed on Monday but I am not sure of this. A delicious delightful addition to the numerous shops and eateries directly on the Haddon Avenue Collingswood area.
