We absolutely love our little shop, especially when the sunshine arrives ☀️🍬

Our front window is a bit of a sun trap though, so during the warmer weather we have to move some of our yummy sweets further into the shop to keep them cool and stop them from melting 🍭😊

This week was definitely the week to do it!

You can still find all your favourite treats from Sweet Ideas at 40 Bridge Street. We’d love to see you pop in for something sweet 🍬

Opening hours:
Tuesday to Friday – 9.30am to 5pm
Saturday – 9.30am to 4pm

See you soon 😊

We’re all set up and ready to go at A-Fest! 🎉 You’ll find us down the side of the Guildhall (Santander side).

Come and grab some freshly spun candy floss on a stick, or take home one of our candy floss buckets. We’ve also got tubs of sherbet and lollies (a long-time customer favourite!), our super popular £1 Sweet Cones, and plenty more delicious treats.

Come join the fun, stop by our stall, and treat yourself to a little something sweet today! 🍭🍬🍫

We’re really looking forward to Sunday as we head back to A-Fest! 🎉

We’ve supported this event every year so far, and to say it’s a great day would be an understatement. It’s always such a fantastic atmosphere and we can’t wait to be part of it again.

Unfortunately, Jo won’t be joining us this time as she’s still recovering from surgery, but the rest of the team will be there and ready to welcome you!

Aimee has been busy practising her candy floss skills all week, so she’s fully prepped and excited to get spinning 🍭

Come along, join in the fun, pop by to say hello, and treat yourself to some seriously delicious candy floss.

See you there! 👋
