New in Town: Sugarfina in Oakbrook Center

Sugarfina

Why should kids get to have all the fun? Sugarfina just opened its first Midwest store in Oak Brook, and Chicagoland just got a whole lot sweeter. Started as an online store in 2012, Sugarfina has grown quickly into a 12-store mini-chain with additional candy boutiques in Atlanta, Boston, Maryland and New York, and a half dozen in California.

These aren’t your kid’s candies. This is a carefully curated selection of sweets from around the world, two-thirds of which are exclusive to Sugarfina in the U.S. And since it’s for adults — some of the candies are booze-filled, like the trademarked Peach Bellini or Cuba Libre gummies — there is a premium put on store design, which is eye candy of its own.

Founded by “sweethearts” Rosie O’Neill and Josh Resnick, who sought to create the candy store of their sweetest imaginings, Sugarfina is filled with “gourmet sweets made with premium ingredients,” says O’Neill. “Candy that’s as beautiful to look at as it is to taste, and our new shop brings delicious, never-before-seen candies to the Chicago market.”

Their signature “Bento Box” allows customers to build their own gift box from the candy wall with more than 125 choices stocked in color-coded Lucite boxes. A Candy Concierge is at your beck and call to arrange private events, dessert bars and even marriage proposals. Time to get your sweet on!
