At Sweet Freaks, we believe life is made sweeter with a touch of sugar. Our store is a haven for candy enthusiasts of all ages, celebrating the magic of childhood through a diverse assortment of nostalgic classics and contemporary treats. From candies and chocolates to sugary delights, we offer a world of flavors that are sure to satisfy any sweet tooth.

What truly sets Sweet Freaks apart is the rich legacy and dedication behind the store. Originally founded by long-time chef and Chicago resident Patrick Murphy, whose passion for candy and dream of creating a sanctuary for sweet lovers came to life, the store has grown into a beloved community fixture. In March 2023, Patrick’s daughter, Nellie, took the reins of the business. With a shared enthusiasm for the craft, Nellie not only took over the family business but also remodeled the store to continue the tradition of serving the neighborhood with the same warmth and joy her father instilled.

When you step into our whimsical candy wonderland, you’ll be greeted by vibrant displays filled with sweets from around the globe. The inviting atmosphere evokes a sense of nostalgia and excitement, as if stepping into a sugary dreamscape.
