The Sweet Shop has opened its doors for the 2026 season – celebrating 46 years providing sweets! New changes include a main floor demonstration area; watch unique Sweet Shop specialty treats being created. Throughout the summer, The Sweet Shop will be reintroducing traditional recipes for fudge, brittle and caramel corn. 

New owners Debbie Smits and Greg Lorch plan to continue the tradition of the iconic store. As cottage owners for many years, some of their earliest memories were listening to their daughter call out each Sweet Shop billboard phrase while traveling up Highway 6, and regular trips to The Sweet Shop for ice cream and chocolate! It is an honour to keep the memories alive for the next generation!

Thank you to those who attended the sneak peek event on May 20th. Your kindness and support was very much appreciated. The Sweet Shop wants to thank everyone for their patience as they prepared the shop for their May 21st opening. We look forward to serving you this summer!
