Review:
Echuca Heritage Sweet Company is a delightful stop for families exploring the historic Port of Echuca.
The enormous selection of colourful lollies and chocolates is likely to excite children, while the traditional favourites provide plenty of nostalgia for parents and grandparents.
One of the best features is the variety of confectionery from different countries. The English and Scottish sweets, Dutch liquorice and American candy offer plenty of opportunities to discover something unusual.
The vintage-style gifts and collectables add another interesting element, making the shop more than simply somewhere to purchase lollies.
This is a traditional retail shop rather than an organised children's activity, so a visit is likely to be fairly short unless the family enjoys browsing the extensive selection.
Its convenient location near the historic Port of Echuca makes it an easy addition to a day spent exploring the paddle steamers, heritage buildings and other attractions along High Street.
For families with a sweet tooth, it is certainly a tempting place to visit!
