Happy Pills

In keeping with our candy-heavy trip, we went to a cute little candy shop called Happy Pills today. It's a very narrow little storefront on Avinguda del Portal de l'Angel, so it would be easy to miss. The space is efficiently filled with bins of many kinds of gummies, mini chocolates and lots of other unrecognizable sweets. But their specialty is the presentation - you pick your candy of choice and it's packaged up like medicine. With cute stickers.

We got many kinds of gummies (love the extraordinary choices available here!) including happy face gummies, gummy tarantulas, butterflies and lips (two kinds of lips were available - regular and Rolling Stone with tongue sticking out). The chilli pepper shaped gummy was actually really spicy and peppery - I had to spit it out :( Everything else was great.
