Moms, dads, aunts, uncles and grandparents...you have GOT to check out Powell's Sweet Shoppe in Lafayette. They are in the new Lafayette Mercantile Building on Mt. Diablo Road and this place is filled with outrageous candy and confections that will give you that "blast from the past" feeling. Remember Mary Janes, Beemans, Clark Bars and Wax Lips??? They've got em--and Good & Plenty too! My kids like the different color M&M dispensers, perfect for making that perfect rainbow custom blend. There's all the candy I remember from my childhood in the old-fashioned barrels and a ton of new stuff and novelties that will make your eyes pop out. Willy Wonka is playing all the time on the flat screen TV and kids can watch a bit while they lick their lollipops and wait for the grownups to buy one of those "to-die-for" gelatos. Divine! There's something for everyone and once you visit, you will always come back--for that occasional special treat or a weekly indulgence. Go this weekend. Surpise the kids! And tell owners Zeina and Nabil Hissen (and Manager Didi Reed) that the Minivan Reporter sent you!
