If you wanted a regular type of candy, Blackeby's might not be the place to go. But if you want something hard to find, this place is a treasure trove! There are so many rare and hard to source treats, that I am in absolute heaven whenever I visit Blackeby's.
Just a head's up... don't go if you are on a diet! ;-)

Yummy, yummy, yummy! This shop is delightful! They not only have lollies from my childhood which I can't find anywhere else, they have lollies from my Grandmother's childhood as well! here are Australian, New Zealand, UK and S lollies and drinks and all at much more reasonable prices than I would expect. Blackeby's are South Australian and have been in business for over 100 years. The store looks great from the outside as well.

For an unusual present I bought a pretty jar and filled it with a mixed assortment of Blackeby's sweets.

This place is heaven for kids and adults alike. A great range of products that are difficult to find elsewhere. Not cheap but worth it for special occasions. This place is a must visit before birthday parties - to decorate cakes, fill lolly bags, etc. The fit out is gorgeous - a real wonderland. The one at TTP is great too.

It's expensive but understandably so, this stuff is hard to get in Australia - still the only place I have seen Moon Pies (Simpson's episode where Bart works for Mrs Glick).

This is a great shop to browse in as you never know what you will find. They have their standard range, but there are always new things to try.

This little shop is a hidden treasure. They sell all my old childhood favourites in there and I have found some new ones!

They have so much candy, and reasonably priced. I always get a whole bunch of gobstoppers and licorice. Even if you don't like candy the store is something to see, like an old school candy store.
