Dulcelandia

Looking to satisfy a sweet tooth? Then head over to Dulcelandia on 26th Street in Little Village. This warehouse-style store is filled with over 1,000 different treats. Dulcelandia features a wide variety of imported Mexican candies, both sweet and spicy. The name for Dulcelandia, or ‘candyland’ is fitting, as the walls of the store are lined with candy, and pyramids of wrapped treats surround the interior. Colorful piñatas that hang from the ceiling are also available to fill with your favorites. Stop by Dulcelandia and pick up a bag of some sweet treats, a perfect souvenir from your travels to Little Village.
