candy shop
Seller of sweets
A candy shop is a store that sells sweets—chocolates, hard candies, gummies, and similar confections.
The term evokes nostalgia for old-fashioned shops with jars of penny candy: The kids pressed their faces against the candy shop window.
In hip-hop slang, candy shop became a sexual metaphor after 50 Cent's 2005 hit, suggesting a place of indulgence and pleasure.
