Have you ever dreamed of walking into a candy store and finding it filled to the brim with Sour Patch Kids?
Well, that sugar-drenched fantasy has become a reality in
The permanent Manhattan store — located at 665 Broadway in Greenwich Village — will open to the public on August 6.
A spokesperson told Insider that the store will include a create-your-own candy mix station, "Instagram-worthy photo opportunities," and a Sweets Bar with a variety of new treats.
The menu includes a Sour Sandwich, made with Sour Patch Kids ice cream sandwiched between two Sour Patch Kids sugar cookies that have been dipped in red-colored chocolate and rolled in Sour Patch Kids Bitz.
You can also get Sour Patch Kids ice cream on top of a waffle floating on a cloud of sour cotton candy.
The dish, dubbed Waffle-licious, is topped with Sour Patch Kids Bitz, Sour Patch-flavored drizzle, Sour Patch Kids Bark, mini raspberry chocolate cups, and whipped cream.
The Swirl might be more your flavor if you're hoping for something a touch more simple. It's made with a chocolate-dipped waffle cone filled with Sour Patch Redberry Soft Serve Swirl and topped with Sour Patch Kids Bitz and Bark.
And that's just the ice cream portion of the menu.
Who You Calling "Cookie"? is made with a sweet sugar cookie with Sour Patch Kids pieces baked inside, while the Krispy Kids is a chewy marshmallow treat dipped in red-colored chocolate and "loaded with Sour Patch Kids Bitz inside and out," according to the store's menu description.
There's also cotton candy with Sour Patch Kids Bitz hidden inside — appropriately named Kids On A Cloud — and a Sour Patch Kids cookie dough made by DŌ, the popular NYC shop known for its edible cookie dough creations.
If you'd rather drink your candy instead of eat it, there's also a smoothie and a milkshake — which comes topped with a slice of rainbow cake.
Desserts will currently only be available to-go due to the ongoing pandemic, and the store's capacity will be limited to 50% to ensure there's enough space for social distancing.
A spokesperson told Insider that face coverings will be mandatory at all times and disposable gloves will be provided and required for the candy mix station.
