This Real Life Candyland Is The Sweetest Place In The World

Do you dream of swimming in marshmallows or checking out famous paintings recreated in your favourite sweets?

Welcome to Candytopia, a little piece of heaven in the City of Angels where sugar lover’s dreams comes true.

Located in LA’s iconic Hangar Studios, the 100% candy art-meets-sugar experience was curated and conceived by self-proclaimed Hollywood Candy Queen Jackie Sorkin, with incredible installations by master fabricator Zac Hartog.

Up and running until early fall, 2018, the gallery-like experience is the ideal afternoon out for anyone with a love of fun and an above average sweet tooth.

The set-up is colourful, vibrant and delicious with experiences straight out of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Think marshmallow tsunamis and flying unicorn pigs.

There are actually 12 different environments to experience, so come hungry and prepare to have the sweetest time of your life (with a side of incredible Instagram posts).

In case you needed any more reason to attend: there is even free parking! Now, take us to the candy shop!
