Today we found it! Yes, the treasure trove of all confectionery stores and it’s located in Petersham. Having passed this warehouse on several occasions on our weekend travels to Yum Cha, we finally made the effort (a huge effort may I add after Yum Cha) to explore the treasure trove of confectionery which is Georgiou’s Confectionery store. 


Lollies and chocolates from our childhoods lined the aisles. We both certainly felt like kids, I mean adults, no kids, in a candy store. All of our old school favourites were here. Warheads, Nerds, Snap & Crackle bars, sour worms, gob stoppers....I’m getting excited again! Perhaps it's all the sugar!


The list didn’t stop there. American favourites such as Jujyfruits, Junior Mints, Baby Ruth, Reese’s Pieces, Butter Fingers, Pop Tarts, Hershey’s bars and Choo Choo Bars proved to be all too tempting.
Buy in bulk Fantales, freckles, milk bottles, frogs, chocolate éclairs, gummy bears, red skins… the list goes on.


For the more conservative confectionery lovers, you will be happy to know that you are also fully catered for with a wide selection of boxed chocolates such as Lindt, Ferrero Rocher, Raffaello, Baci Perugina and Guylian to name a few.


And for the chocoholics, well I think the yard of chocolate should certainly hit the spot.

What a store! 1000 square metres of sweet heaven. Move over Charlie, today I certainly felt that I had found the golden ticket. This place certainly is Petersham’s answer to Willy Wonker’s Chocolate Factory!
