There’s a new candy shop in Ballard that sits right on Bergen Place. Nicole Miller, the owner of Blackbird, took a corner of her shop and created a sweet spot tentatively called “Blackbird’s Rotten Tooth.”

Right now they sell your typical candies like Jelly Belly’s, Red Vines and Snickers, but they’re expanding their selection. We talked with employee Andy Ziskis who says he’s hoping to get candy from around the world as well as a local section. “I’m hoping that we’ll become a specialty candy store,” he says. He’s asking customers what they’d like to see, and suggestions include Pop Rocks, Mexican Coke, Mochi and pet treats. The hours aren’t set yet and probably won’t be for the next week, so it’s hit or miss for now. (Thanks Ben for the tip!)
