In the quaint and picturesque Poole old town high street, you’ll find a shop that will make Willy Wonka green with Envy.

Truly Scrumptious is a retro sweet shop with rows and rows of sweets, homemade fudge, an abundance of chocolate goodies and hard-to-find candy.

You’ll be amazed at the old-school sweets you may have forgotten and will feel nostalgic just looking at what’s on offer.

With a friendly owner, Jeanette received a silver award for The Poole Bid Retail Business Award 2024, nominated by her customers.

It shows that having a friendly and welcoming approach goes far, and customers will always come back for more!

An independent shop also makes it a more personal and enjoyable shopping experience.

You’ll find old-school classics such as Aniseed Ball Sweets, Cola Cubes, Strawberries and cream, Bon Bons and more.

Customers can feast on chunks of gorgeous homemade fudge made in-store and find favourites such as peanut butter, banoffee, chocolate mint, and coffee fudge; the list is endless.

Being so close to the quay means customers can grab some sweets and enjoy them along the waterfront or at the outdoor seating area.
