We’re a Top 10 Candy Store in the Nation!

Pinch us, we must be dreaming! 🍬 Samuel’s Sweet Shop has been voted one of the Top 10 Best Candy Stores in the Nation in the USA TODAY 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards 2026!

Voted by You

Candy shops from coast to coast were in the running. And our little shop in Rhinebeck, NY, made the list!

Every vote came from our amazing customers, fans, and friends. We are thrilled with this sweet honor. Our crew was so excited, we grabbed the chalk markers and made a sign to celebrate.

We Love You a Latte!

Since 1994, we’ve poured our hearts into the candy, chocolate, coffee, baked goods, and gifts that make people smile.

Knowing so many of you voted for us means more than we can say. Thank you for your patronage, support, and friendship. We love you a latte! ☕💙

Next Stop: #1!

Let’s get to #1 next year! 🏆
