"Karameller is Swedish for "hard candy", and this recently opened Mainland Street shop is taking its stated purpose seriously. Over 100 hard and gummy candy varieties from Scandinavia brighten up this tiny storefront and make you feel like a kid again. Owner Louise Schönberg opened the shop because she missed candy from her native country after a decade of living in Vancouver. One can easily see why it was missed - the candy is delicious and really fun. Our favourite is the decadent Rambo Cola. The minimal interior design by Leckie Studio acts as the perfect backdrop for the colourful exuberance within. At $3.49 per 100g, grab a bag and scoop away." - Becki Chan & Milos Begovic
