About

For imported candies from Germany, Japan, and the UK, baseball cards, Pez dispensers, gag gifts, and bulk jelly beans, there’s really only one place to go. And that’s Economy Candy—the city’s oldest candy shop—which has been filling dentist chairs on the Lower East Side since 1937. While they don’t have a bulk section with little plastic scoops and big tubs of candy, the selection here rivals that of Harry Potter’s Honeydukes (don’t miss the branded butterbeer-flavored candy). It's one of NYC's most overstimulating stores, and a great place to stock up before a party. Or come with children, give them a budget, and prepare to deal with the fallout of a sugar rush. It’ll be worth it. $15 gets you pretty far here, with one-pound bags starting at around $5 each.
