TheCandy Vault

Our Story

Why are we called the Candy Vault?

We're an old-fashioned sweet shop inside the former Bank of Nova Scotia building. Since 1950 when the bank opened, the vault room has been guarded by a 3,600 lbs door. Today, that exact same door protects a treasure trove of sweets!

Stepping into the Candy Vault is like entering a time portal as you browse our selection of sweets and treats. Each memory holds the promise of a sugary escape back to a simpler time!

A little something for everyone

Ice-cold soda, creamy fudge, salt water taffy, sweet and salty licorice, gummies, sour candy, chocolate, British sweets and ice cream — to name a few. Here's a taste of what awaits.

Salt Water Taffy

Buckets upon buckets of chewy confection, each piece a tiny work of art. Vibrant colours cast a rainbow across the display — a feast for the eyes and the imagination.

Gummies

Vibrant, neon-coloured, wriggling delights. Sweet or mouth-puckering sour, every one promises a satisfying chew.

Ice Cream

A scoop to enjoy on the bench out front, or to take with you on a walk down Hudson Avenue.

Soda

Peering into the cooler is like glimpsing a time capsule of fizzy delights. Iconic brands from the past stand next to trendy newcomers — from root beer to exotic blends.

Rogers' Chocolates

Handmade on Vancouver Island since 1885 — Victoria Creams and chocolate classics from Canada's oldest chocolate company.

Pop Culture

The sweets and novelties everyone's talking about, from the shows and characters your kids and grandkids love.
