Reviews
"We came to Solvang for a day out and couldn't pass by the decorations at the store. Everything inside is very beautiful and you can't help but want to buy everything! But we had to make a choice. We took candies and assorted honey, we really enjoyed it."
"100% athetic. Going to the art and crafts fair as a kid in Sweden we always got Polkagris and the Swedish version of fudge. This was great thank you for keeping the tradition alive."
"They make polkagris in-house in a variety of flavors, including salted licorice. Excellent stuff. $9 for a small bag is pretty steep though, but I appreciate what they're doing."
"Had to stop by a Swedish candy store while in Solvang. This fit the bill and it had a lot of history to it as well. Cinnamon polkagris was being made while we walked in so the store smelled so good. Opted to buy 5 polkagris in different flavors. My fave is the sour apple."
"I bought chocolate truffles and honey. The clerks were very friendly offered us samples of Swiss candy and chocolate trufles. The candy was too hard but chocolate was freshly made and flavorful."
