There’s just something about candy…
The sweet flavors and various textures (from ooey-gooey soft or velvety to crisp and crunchy) tantalize the taste buds and inspire our imaginations.
Yet, something is missing in your run-of-mill candy experience. Merely buying a chocolate bar from a convenience store or gas station lacks the genuine magic that sweet treats should provide.
I Dream Of Sugar offers something far beyond the standard candy-eating experience.
Our 15,000-square-foot store brimming with candy, drinks, ice cream, and other treats, harnesses the magic inside every bite of delicious candy.
IDOS is more than a shop–it’s an immersive experience. Yes, you can pop in and buy your favorite sweet treat. However, you can also stick around for a while, sip some drinks, and bop your head to the live music in our vibrant upstairs bar–and that’s just the tip of the candy-infused iceberg.
Any cruise-goer stopping in the Bahamas will relish exploring our beautiful establishment at the heart of Nassau on the corner of Bay Street and Market Street.
You’ll find us directly opposite the Straw Market–all you need to do is follow one of your yellow or blue bears strategically placed around town.
Why Is I Dream Of Sugar The Best Candy Store In Nassau?
We understand that calling ourselves the best candy store is a bold statement–but it’s a claim we confidently make. In fact, we can say without any doubt that IDOS goes above and beyond all other stores in our industry.
After all, we boast a vast selection of 5,000+ products. There is no candy craving we can’t satisfy–we have something to meet everybody’s unique sweet tooth. Our offerings include our impressive range of bulk and nostalgic candies from around the world.
The other sweet part of our store is the ambiance. Candy is supposed to be fun, vibrant, and life-affirming. The buzz in our store is undeniable–simply being inside feels like a sugar rush in and of itself!
Our Location Is As Sweet As Our Candy
Being on a cruise is fantastic enough. Having the ability to explore various exotic locations during stops is even better. When one of those stops is at a cruise port in the Bahamas (namely, the port in Nassau), you have the chance for a once-in-a-lifetime sweet-centric experience!
Located on Bay Street–the heart of downtown Nassau–I Dream Of Sugar is a convenient walking distance from the docks.
While our team is made up of candy lovers passionate about immersive customer experiences, we’re also a proud part of a bustling shopping district. The atmosphere in this part of the city is a sight to behold and will make your trip unforgettable.
We’re Always Looking To Give Our Customers Something More
Candy is our main priority at IDOS. Our number one aim is to supply customers with top-tier confectionery offerings that create lifelong memories. However, our other main focus is diversifying and offering sweet tastes beyond the “candy” classification.
For instance, we have a wide selection of delectable ice creams boasting Bahamian flavors expertly made by local creamers solely for IDOS.
Our bevy of expertly crafted milkshakes (including alcohol-infused options) offers velvety textures and sumptuous flavors. You can choose from bold creations or more traditional offerings–either way, and your taste buds will thank you.
Our specialty coffee drink adds another layer to our sweet candy flavors, satisfying your caffeine cravings.
We’ve also got you covered if you want to escape the Bahamian heat. Our refreshing frozen beverages are lip-smackingly delicious, splashing your tastebuds with a cooling, healthy dose of yum.
Also, adults can enjoy an extra “zip” in their sweet treats as we make candy-infused cocktails. These mix the nostalgic childhood flavors with a more grownup twist, which you can enjoy at our upstairs bar. Our talented mixologists expertly combine alcoholic and sweet elements (like our cotton candy margaritas and gummy bear martinis!).
Lose Yourself In An Immersive Experience
When our customers arrive at our candy store, we want them to feel like they’ve entered a different world. From the time you enter until the time you leave, you’ll be in an immersive paradise.
On the second floor is our 360 experience room. We blend Junkanoo elements (more on this in a moment) with the wonders of candy. You’ll be surrounded by whimsical sights, sounds, flavors, and the vibrations of an endless celebration.
If you visit our 360 room, our loveable mascot–a kind-hearted bear–will greet you with open arms. You’ll then soak in the sights of beautiful candy-themed giant bear statues that conjure the timeless (and ageless) magic we’ve worked so hard to cultivate.
Lastly, Junkanoo is a key element of our store, as it’s an important part of Bahamian culture and history. IDOS is filled with stunning murals, breathtaking artwork, and a unique blend of color, tradition, and excitement, honoring Junkanoo. Drop by our store to try on vibrant Junkanoo attire for fun photos.
IDOS Is Always Thinking Of Ways To Sweeten The Deal
While we’re focused on offering our customers an immersive candy-forward experience in the present, we’re also thinking ahead at IDOS.
We’ll soon be adding a food menu, offering entrees to go with our sweet treats. We know something about satisfying taste buds; this undeniable skill will carry over to our delicious dishes. Keep your ears to the ground for when we debut this menu, as it’s sure to satiate.
Balcony seating will be available to our guests who wish to indulge in our candy while enjoying the eye-catching view of the local shopping district.
