Our Story

Welcome to Candy Cabs Cumbria! We are Dave and Louise, and our journey began in July 2023 with a shared vision: to create a charming, old-fashioned sweet shop infused with a modern twist. As natives of West Cumbria, particularly Cleator Moor where Louise was born and raised, we were committed to keeping our venture local.

 

We launched as an online delivery service, based out of a unit at Phoenix Court, Cleator Moor. The overwhelming demand from our community quickly made it clear that we needed a physical shop. Our search for the perfect location led us to a collaboration with Emma and Chris at Emma’s Bakes. The idea of combining a café, bakery, and sweet shop under one roof was irresistible.

 

In February 2024, we proudly opened our doors, transforming Candy Cabs Cumbria from a small online store into a beloved local destination. Our shop now offers a vast selection of Pic n Mix, freeze-dried treats, and an array of snacks and drinks from around the world. We cater to all types of events and serve cinemas, theatres, and more across West Cumbria.

 

At Candy Cabs Cumbria, community is at the heart of everything we do. We support local amateur sports teams and make monthly donations to various charities. We are thrilled to be part of this vibrant community and look forward to sweetening your days with our delightful offerings.

 

Thank you for being a part of our story.
