Dylan's Candy Bar


I have an undeniable sweet tooth that I never seem to be able to satisfy, however, as I grew older, I grew out of the "all-you-can-eat" candy shoppes. That is, until a trip to New York City quickly changed my outlook on bottomless sweet treats.

Located just off of Central Park in New York is the original Dylan's Candy Bar, owned by Ralph Lauren's daugher, Dylan. As soon as you walk in you are greeted by a selection of different packaging choices in which to house your candy selections. Once you decide on your container of choice, you may continue onto the closest experience to a real-life Willy Wonka adventure you may ever encounter!


The candy bar is two floors filled with your favorite cavity-prone goodies. Shop your chocolates, gummies, toffees and caramels, homemade truffles and fudge, gum, tarts, malt balls, sours and even candied popcorn! You can also indulge in a homemade milkshake made right in house in the candy bar bakery.

If you're on a "candy diet" you can still dive into some Dylan delectables with her Re-Treat Bath & Body product line. Submerge yourself in delicious shower gels, body butters, lip savers, sugar scrubs and more with her adorably packaged Re-Treat gift sets.  If you're not planning a trip to NYC, Houston, Texas or Orlando, Florida in the near future, you can still purchase the Re-Treat line at Dylan's Candy Bar website and at Sephora retail stores.

On the flip side, if you are in the perimeter of a Candy Bar store check out their parties and events service! Host a party right inside Dylan's Candy Bar in a private room with your kids, have Dylan provide your wedding or party favors or even wrap up a corporate customized gift!
