Halloween is upon us, so let’s talk treats (we don’t do tricks, thank you).
While the most popular Halloween candies in South Carolina are Butterfinger, Sour Patch Kids, and Skittles, you know we tend to veer a little more local. We’ve rounded up a few Charleston-area shops where you can stock up on sweets.
OMG Candy Store
With shops in Charleston + Savannah, this biz offers all kinds of candy, including Halloween-themed trays. For year-round treats, the shop’s signature Acrylic OMG Boxes make the sweetest gifts.
Sweet Julep’s
This Mount Pleasant shop specializes in Southern confections made fresh daily, like its Original Charleston Pralines, Praline Pecans, and famous fudge. If you’re looking for wrapped candy for trick-or-treating, stock up via the store’s candy jars.
River Street Sweets has pralines for days.

River Street Sweets
This Savannah-based brand has locations on Market Street and North Charleston and is beloved for its pralines, Bear Claw Bites, and brittle.
Christophe Chocolatier
With charming locations in West Ashley and downtown on Society Street, this local business offers chocolates, truffles, and hand-painted treats, plus wrapped chocolate bars inspired by Charleston.
LB Sweets & Treats
This bakery offers scratch-made goodies like cookies and tarts, but the menu’s truffles and chocolates really take the cake. Try the seasonal caramel-almond delight truffles, the dark chocolate espresso truffles, the pralines, and the housemade candy bars.
