Unless it's chocolate, I don't eat lots of candy. But I gotta admit that this place looks amazing! If you're planning on heading to the beach this summer, make sure you visit Sunset Beach. They have a new awesome attraction: Sugar Kingdom.

The Sugar Kingdom Candy Store is now open with over 2,500 varieties of candy, with old school favorites and brand-new types of candy. The decor is stunning! Remember when you were a kid and you saw pictures of candy stores in books? That's exactly what this place looks like. Just looking at the pictures takes you back to childhood.

The store offers pre-packaged candy, candy in bulk, freshly made treats in house, and homemade ice cream in unusual flavors like Key Lime Peach. YUM! And if the candy wasn't enough, they have cute toys too. Your kids will wanna visit here more than once.

According to Only In Your State, the shop is located in The Village Shopping Plaza in Sunset Beach.  Your kids will go nuts in this place! And if you don't have kids and are a kid at heart like me, you'll love it too. Check out the website and look at the gallery....gorgeous place! All the colorful candy just screams happiness! And a sugar high!
