You can find some fun ‘hard to find’ candy at Sweet Spot too. Where else would you find rainbow colored Twizzlers or green gummy frogs! If you don’t see something you want, just let the owners know and they’ll scour their resources to find it.
Sweet Spot is located in West Broad Village near the Short Pump Children’s Museum. Stop by and say hello and tell them you heard about them on Richmondmom.com. Talk to one of the owners about hosting your child’s birthday party or other special celebration and then sit back and relax while they do all of the work. You can contact them at 804-360-7768 or email [email protected] for more information or to reserve a spot.
Hopping with Easter Fun
And if you’re thinking about Easter fun, then consider this.
With just a hop skip and jump until Easter…The Easter Bunny’s helpers are paying a visit to Sweet Spot this Spring to help with all of those Easter baskets! Drop your baskets off at the shop, select your candy or give them a budget and let the Easter Bunny’s helpers assemble your baskets ($5 fee for materials plus the cost of candy). They’ll have pre-made Easter baskets too, and ready to fill Easter baskets for your own creations with lots of great candy to choose from. One of their favorites is Hammonds Floppy Eared Bunny.
What’s not to love about Sweet Spot – it’s the place where everyone can be a kid!
