The Lil Sweet Treat outpost is now open — as of May 31 — at 150 Second Ave. between Ninth Street. (We had the scoop on this arrival here.)

The shop features a variety of pick-and-mix candy sourced from around the world ($21.50 per pound), including Dizzy Bubblegum Skull Bubs from Sweden. 

The brand opened its first shop last fall in the West Village... and is also expanding with a new storefront in Boston and one in Philadelphia next week.

Signage went up yesterday on Second Avenue between Ninth Street and 10th Street for the latest outpost of Lil Sweet Treat. 

The brand, one of the, per Eater, "new-school, social media-ready candy shops" in NYC, opened its first store in the West Village last fall. 

The shop features pick-and-mix candy sourced from around the world. (And more than just the ol' Swedish fish.) 

We hear this outpost may be open by the end of the month. 

Lil Sweet Treat replaces Vape N Smoke ... so now the only buzz will come from a sugar high. (Sorry!)
