    American Candy shops in Denmark too. It’s hilarious. I still go to them when I visit my bestie though haha. Love those mixed bags.

        Yea, we had one out here in the SW near me but it didn’t last and by far wasn’t the shadiest shop in that area though lmao. I went there for Gatorade and some nostalgia treats. They didn’t have a lot of scoop bins though and it was a bit out of the way.

        For some reason (probably just from good memories), the sweets with the isles of scoops are distinctively a Scandinavian thing to my brain.

          I haven’t seen a candy shop with the scoop bins in forever. When I was a kid, they were a staple of Americana.

          Ladkris

          looks fancy. prob can’t afford it.

          can afford a few Tony’s Chocolonely here and there, and that’s enough. fucking fantastic stuff.

            Ladkris is sold everywhere, it’s a nice treat and common for Christmas gifts. If you are in the UK, think Hotel Chocolate. In America, Godiva.

              yeahhhh, had family that worked for godiva. some of it was rather nice but again, their product chain wasn’t conflict free for a long time and I don’t like slavery choco.

      There was a small one that recently rebranded into a doughnut shop. If it was a front at some point, its popular enough to be legit now.
