629B E Silver Spring Dr, Whitefish Bay“Two shops in one, a toys & housewares assortment downstairs and various seasonal & party items upstairs... Also a fine assortment of bulk candy upstairs. If you need a unique item, give Winkie's a try, odds are you'll find several!”
“I took my cousin there for his first time and he was like a kid in a candy store lol the ladies are amazing and I love finding things that I can't find anywhere else! Thank you Half Nuts!”
“Every Easter I order the delicious marshmallow Maple eggs, drenched in the most Delicious chocolate. From childhood, my parents would buy Freeses candy and to this day, even living in Ohio, I order their candy and send it out to my family. My order comes intact and always in decorative packaging! Thank you!”
“This review is for the storefront, which is technically in Whitefish Bay, WI. We stopped by both their manufacturing facility and the storefront this past week when I was in town attending the Retail Confectioners International conference. The storefront is very cute. The proprietress gave us samples of their crunchy peanut butter truffles and also their chocolate-covered toffees, and I ended up purchasing a few things: some sea salt truffles from their $1 bin in the front; their s'mores, for $5; and two truffles, a tiramisu one and a mint meltaway. Everything was delicious. They also do a great presentation: you get one gift bag with tissue paper for what you buy, and I believe you can buy extra bags if needed, too. I gave my dad the s'mores today for Father's Day and we split it with my mom, and everyone liked it. Definitely stop by if you're in the area.”
“The smores bark is DELICIOUS. probably my favorite dessert of all time!!! Got it at state fair for the second year in a row. Will be coming to the store for more!! Yummy!!!!”
“Excellent old fashioned candy shop. Jim the owner really cares about his craft. Love going into the store. Smells like heaven in there especially when they are making waffle cones.”
“Such a great example of a small family run business. A great selection of candy to stock up for any event (or not)
5 stars ⭐️
(Cash only business btw)”
“The chocolate is quite good. The operators are from a much older version of the matrix so be warned... If you are presentable, polite, and pay with cash you will be ok.”
“Great variety of candy , and they have the cutest piñatas! They customized mine to my liking for any type of event, birthdays , themes anything u need . definitely recommend them.”

400 N Water St, Milwaukee“This place is chocolate heaven, my wife and I get a pound of dark chocolate creams on our monthly visits. Their other stuff looks great but we always get the same thing. Being in the Public Market, they don’t take themselves too seriously.”
“This store is fantastic. Wonderful piñatas, great selection of candies, and an amazing staff. I only wish that I could bring this store home with me so I could visit often!”
“Winkie's has been part of the neighborhood forever, and for good reason. The upstairs has a great assortment of candy, cards, wrapping paper, gift bags, party supplies, novelties and Wisconsin themed items (including cheeseheads for those visiting from out of town). The downstairs has household items and a nice selection of toys and games for all ages. The staff is always friendly and willing to help or answer any questions. This is a real neighborhood gem, and I need to remember that more often!”
