Sugarplum's Sweet Shop
 

https://i.postimg.cc/4yK4zJxp/sugarp...op-banner3.jpg
Every child in Wizarding Britain knows that Sugarplum's is the place to be. You can smell the sticky sweetness and bursts of flavour as soon as you walk through the door, the little candy themed bell, enchanted to transform into a different type of candy every hour, will tinkle merrily to announce your arrival, but we won't be surprised if you don't notice it, after all your eyes have a rainbow of delectable sweets to feast on.

Shelves among shelves of different types of wizarding sweets are ranged in aisles before you. The shelves stretch up to the roof and big glass jars display every type of candy imaginable. Can't reach? No worries! Just say the type of candy out loud and the jar will float down to you, ready to scoop out the required amount. Everything is labeled, so it shouldn't be too hard to find what you're looking for. There are a stack of baskets to the right of the last shelf - go ahead and grab one if you need it! There are four gumball machines near the exit to the sweet shop. If you have any knuts in your pocket that you are just dying to get rid of, why not buy a few gumballs with them? All you have to do is place two knuts inside the little slot, turn the knob, and watch as the gumball travels down the maze and to the little compartment at the bottom.

Once you've finished your shopping, you need to escort yourself to the check out counter located on the right side of the store. The shopkeeper can usually be found behind the counter, scooping and weighing sweets for the customers ahead of you.

Victoria shook off the chill as she walked through the doors to one of her favorite places in the alley. She loved sweet things and she made it a point to keep some candies on her counter. Looking around she spotted her favorite... fudge. With a few quick steps she got to the display looking over the choices trying to decide what it would be that she would have for the day.

She had gotten chocolate last time and ended up giving it away because it was wayyy too much for her. She scooted herself closer examining the displays making a checklist of which ones she had already had in her head.

It was summer and children were just EVERYWHERE, running around and making noises and generally just being...children. It made one of Zia's nerves twitch. She didn't not like children. In fact, in her field of work, she was constantly interacting with children. It was just that she preferred them screaming and crying over a boo-boo and not...stomping and throwing tantrums over their parents disallowing them to overindulge in candy. Crying over a real injury was much acceptable than crying over candy.

If she ever had children of her own, she was going to make sure they knew the difference.

The healer hitched her handbag higher on her shoulder as she sauntered past the children. As much as she wanted to go grab a glass of wine right now, she had certain priorities also known as buying her monthly supplies of assorted candies.

Yes, she had a sweet tooth, and no, it was something she rather not disclose to anyone else.

Zianna Jean Castell didn't like candies. Nope.

Sweets everywhere, there wasn’t many places that bought a sense of nostalgia but candy shops were definitely one of them. Though Thomas wasn’t in London much, outside of the summer time, mostly since working on the University in spain. It was summer and his family was home from school. Of course he’d be here in London visiting them. And of course he was here getting candy for them.

But he still wasn’t used to this candy. He picked up Toothflossing Stringmints. ”Toothflossing Stringmints? What in the world. Looking over the box turning it over and over in his hand. Was this like tooth floss? Who knew? Even in a world of magic that he knew, things were weird sometimes.

Zia was not that particular with her candies, but once she discovered that this shop, Sugarplum's, offered hand-made candies, she had sooner than later became a fan of their cherry-center truffles and coconut ice. So a handful and a handful of those two, please.

In the middle of her hoarding collecting said treats, she heard a voice next to her mention yet another favorite. Toothflossing Stringmints? Um, yeah. "The stringmints really live up to their name. I once went three days straight using only those to clean my teeth."

....

Blink.

Did she just...Merlin, she did. She just casually told a stranger that she didn't brush her teeth for three STRAIGHT days!

How humiliating!

Huh….

….

Maybe he didn’t realize that he had spoken out loud. He was surprised that he had gotten a response. And that response. He held back a chuckle. Not wanting to embarrass her. Should just act like he didn’t hear her. That was the safe bet, right.

”Are they really minty?” Looking over the packaging again then looking up the woman who responded to his statement. It looked like she did have nice pearly white teeth so maybe it really did work.

Try as she may, she couldn't help the blush that blossomed on her cheeks. The healer was normally stoic, but she usually didn't also get this embarrassed.

Noticing that the stranger had somehow focused in on her mouth, on her teeth (that she once went three days not brushing), Zia shut it promptly and cleared her throat before opening it again to answer him. "As a matter of fact, yes." She waved her hand dismissively at the product, then went on in an attempt to save face, "And about what I said earlier, I...brushed my teeth today."

Wait, what?

Apart from the wand shop, this had to be Lucas's second - maybe third but shh - favourite shop to be in. Look at all the sweets! And there was always something new in here which was a little out of his pocket money that Mama gave but that was okay because he could still LOOK, right? Right.

And he was staying as far away from those gumball machines as possible. Last time he went anywhere near them, the whole thing got stuck and he had to try and reach in to get his gumball out - which, by the way, he DID pay for so.....

He shook his head, as if shaking the thoughts away, and looked over at the nearby display which had...... uh...... cockroach clusters?! What?! He picked one up - out of curiosity more than anything else - and started examining it. He scrunched up his nose as he looked veeeeery closely at it and then gave it a great big sniff. Did people actually EAT these?!

......

Blegh! Disgusting!

Thomas could not help but to smirk. Secretly he was enjoying himself a little too much. Other than the smirk you wouldn’t be able to tell. In some way this was getting a bit on the awkward side. That was nothing new to him. Nearly everything got awkward and maybe that was him. It was probably him.

”You have nice teeth.” What? Why did he say that? Smooth move Watts real smooth. Now he was the one blushing. Thankfully that was not noticable. Turning back to the shelves he took a few more boxes, big family and all. Everyone got a box. This has gone from awkward to awwwkwarrrd in like point two seconds.

She had what? Nice teeth? Zia merely gawked at the man as he so casually went back to his shopping after telling her that. Was that a thing nowadays? Complimenting people with their teeth instead of something more common, like their hair or shoes? It was...different. Can't say she didn't like it.

With a snort!chuckle, she she turned back to her own shopping as well but not before returning the favor. "Thanks. You have a nice nose." That sounded awkward as hell but the healer found it oddly endearing. Almost as endearing as the sugar quills she was getting a handful of too.

She was glad to hear Cameron agreed with her about crup hair, though, because she was going to live with them after Hogwarts. So, maybe the majority would win and they wouldn't have to deal with crup hair everywhere.

Looping her arm through Cam's, Natalie tugged him towards the sweets shop. "Well, university. Wherever Liam goes. And I'll be living with you two." Assuming the two of them were still a pair, which was a thought she did not voice out loud. Come to think of it, she wasn't sure if Cam had been made aware that Nat had invited herself to live with Liam and Cam. But if he hadn't, he knew now!

Right, yes, Sugarplum's. THAT'S what they'd come here for before they'd both got sidetracked by that other shop. Although Cameron still wasn't sure what exactly the shop sold or what the point of it was. Maybe he'd actually go inside some time. Or maybe not. He wasn't all that intrigued anymore at this point.

Not when they were about to enter the Sweets Shop, anyway.

Nodding slowly, Cam opened the door to the shop and let Nat go in first. "Right." It was then that he remembered the two of them WERE in fact twins. There weren't a lot of occasions where Cam saw similarities but this was definitely one of those moments. "Of course we'll live together then." He nudged her, smiling genuinely. Liam hadn't mentioned it but...it didn't really come as a surprise to him.

And he could definitely picture himself living with Nat so that worked out well.

E is even more than anyone that you adore can

Love is all that I can give to you

Love was made for me and you"

Darej Patterson (Charely Potter) & Damien Anderson-Belfort (nicole black)


Ink your name on my heart:
Once Sugarplum's Sweet Shop closes its doors for the day, rather than going home the staff ready their shop for two very special guests - Darej and Damien! Once you enter, you'll be taken around the shop, allowed to have some tastes of the delicious treats, before moving on to the back area to see just how the famous treats are made. With the tour complete, you now get to make a pound of fudge, adding in your own flavours and toppings to make it your very own. Following that, you might just find a table for two set up in the staff room, a pot of tea brewing, so that you can treat yourself with the fudge just made and get to know your date.

Charely Potter 02-25-2019 11:21 PM

Darej didn't mind the romance, it was what he signed up for after all. The message and meeting place was... a little on the cringe side of loving. He wondered if his date would feel the same and they'd have something to talk about. At least they'd be making fudge, there was never any downside to having food and sweets. Something to keep them busy and having fun was what he liked.

Darej arrived near closing time and it appeared some of the staff were already waiting on him. Now it would be his date next to follow. Hmm.. he looked around to see where they were.

nicole black 03-01-2019 08:29 PM

Damien Anderson-Belfort was excited. Cautious, but excited. He hadn't been on a date in... a very long time and while he felt rusty, the former Gryffindor also felt kinda hopeful. It helped that he'd woken up today with a serious craving for some sweets.

It had taken a lot of restraint to keep from pulling on a suit, going instead for a well-tailored Tom Ford dress shirt, Gucci dress pants, a pair of Farragamo shoes and a moncler coat to top it off. Damien looked like money, because he was money.

and this money was... uh, er, late. Damien had lost track of time (clearly) but he was rushing through Diagon now as fast as his long legs could carry him- down the alley and past the peddlers and the closing shops until he could see Sugarplums and it's brightly colored interior. Panting, and grinning, Damien slowed as he approached Darej (he was pretty sure that was Darej).

"S-sorry I'm late, you wouldn't believe the traffic!" he joked, standing up straighter and pulling on his shirt collar. He peered around for a moment, gauging things before focusing on his blind date. "Hi." Damien breathlessly said, his voice colored with amusement.

When his date didn't arrive within the few minutes, Darej didn't think much of it. No biggie. It meant that he got to try a couple samples while waiting. They were good. After another moment he started to wonder if his date got cold feet or was in some sort of trouble? The other alternative was him being stood up... Standing him up though? Pfft, who would do that? He could be humble but wasn't going to deny the efforts to make himself look this way. Then again this was a blind date so maybe they were nervous. He would give them a half hour before heading home.. and luckily his date wasn't that late.

First thing Darej noticed. A guy. Okay, that was no biggie to him, he didn't care either way. And the name did give it away beforehand. Next thing, the guy wasn't hard on the eyes thankfully. And his attire though.. A low whistle may have escaped his mouth. "Now that's fashionably late to the tee." Smirking.

"Hi... Damien, right? I'm Darej." Just in case they had any doubts. He eyed him, clearly he was tired fand could use a pick-me-up. "Want some? It's some of the samples they gave out." Offering out the cup of chocoballs. He took one to eat himself. They were tasty after all.

Damien never felt less grown than when he was face to face with a man his age who looked like he had his life together. Darej happened to have that very look. Perhaps it was the assured stance, or the way his hair was parted just so, or the utter charm he'd slipped into his greeting? Damien quietly decided it was all three. Grinning in a self-conscious sort of way, the American-born boy-man offered his hand. "That's right. Damien Anderson-Belfort. Fashionably late might as well be my first and last name." That was very much an exaggeration, hopefully a good one. "Darej, Am I pronouncing that wrong?" He had made the J near silent and was certain that had to be wrong despite hearing it from the other man's mouth.

"yeah, alright." he said eagerly, taking one and popping the whole thing into his mouth without a second's thinking. The chocolate was warm and so sweet it bordered on unbearable. It was just what he looked for in candy. "I've never actually eaten here. Usually if I'm after something sweet I head to Florean's." It was always busy, but also always worth it.

Lamberto Urupi 03-27-2019 07:33 PM

Having a sweet tooth eh?

As soon as the English Quidditch player walked in he was welcomed by a candy bell shaped like a gum ball to announce his presence! His nose twitched taking a whiff of all the variety of candy flavors bursting like a sticky and sweet bomb!

But being more of a salt water taffy kind of guy, he usually stayed inside that bubble and today in the glory of this shop he wanted to explore his options, starting with something a little more classic like the chocolate frogs!

Going in the direction of the baskets he smiled at those around him. Carrying on to his sweet candy mission he took a basket and read the labels of each display and loaded items he'd like to try!

RandomRaven 04-13-2019 01:49 PM

There was a sweet shop at the south side of the alley that had been told by her sister and that's her destination for. Jasmine did mention how some of their homemade candies were mouth-watering and have great selection of flavors too. Being a sweet tooth herself, Aurora was interested to see the shop by herself and perhaps going back home with some sweets too.

Stepping inside the shop, her eyes got widened. Wow, this place was such a heaven. Too bad she didn't bring much galleons to spend here so she'd better spend it wisely and get just the best selecton of their special stuffs. Those fudges looked good, could she try them first before buying? Aurora had no idea. Honestly she wanted to buy them all and shared with her sister but let's be real, spending too much galleons for sweets wasn't good.

Eniola could almost smell the excitement from the other kids as she walked into the shop. Exploring the aisles she found children of all ages staring wide-eyed at the rows upon rows of sugary confections. How could someone not like the sweetness? It draws you in, almost sparkling waiting for you to catch it’s eye.

The lemon drops were Eniola’s weakness. She always loved popping one in as she was studying. She thinks it helps her remember, her mother thinks it makes her teeth rot. But it was worth it!

Eni came to a stop in front of the lemon drops, noticing only one other girl around her age roaming the same area, she smiled to be friendly. She was really just excited for the candy if she was being honest.

Decisions... Decisions..

Everything looked good, this wasn't fair. Aurora didn't want to spend her entire galleons for sweets (and she'd rather to spend them for skin care of make up products) but she had to make a decision which ones she should get. Omona, this was like when she had to decide if she should get new lip tint or face masks at the mall last week (although she ended up getting both). Let's just... ask someone.

"Hey, excuse me." The Korean-American smiled at the girl who wasn't too far from her. "Do you have any recommendation which one I should get? Like.. all-time favorite here?" Maybe she should've asked the shopkeeper but it seems he's not available for a question like this. Also, asking someone else wouldn't be bad, right? This girl seemed like she's quite familiar with some of these products.

Eniola hadn’t noticed anyone else as she was on her hunt for her sugar high. Lemon drops! Sherbet drops! Sugar quills! Oh my! Eni is in heaven. She got startled when the girl started talking to her as it broke her out of a type of trance. “Oh! I love Lemon Drops! And Sherbet Drops! And Sugar Quills! They help me study...at least that’s how I justify it to my parents.” Eni laughed. “Do you have much of a sweet tooth?”

Lemon drops, sherbet drops and sugar quills.

Aurora wasn't really a fan of lemon-flavored, unless it's on her skin care product. Lemon face mask was one of her favorite though. But sugar quills seemed appealing. She was curious and took some of them. "They do look like an actual quill, yeah." The Korean-American nodded. "Looks like I'm going to need some of these." Just like what this girl had mentioned, it could be a good disguise when she's eating sweets while studying.

"I do, yeah. But all these stuffs are so unfamiliar, I just moved to England and everything here looks good though." She said truthfully. "Have you ever tried their homemade products? My sister said they're good too, but she did not mention which products specifically. And honestly, I would love to get them all but well... can't really spend too much on sweets." Wow, did she just talk too much on a stranger?

Aurora wasn't really a fan of lemon-flavored, unless it's on her skin care product. Lemon face mask was one of her favorite though. But sugar quills seemed appealing. She was curious and took some of them. "They do look like an actual quill, yeah." The Korean-American nodded. "Looks like I'm going to need some of these."

Eni nodded, “Yeah, it’s pretty cool. Watch out for the Transfiguration Prof though! They’ve definitely caught me a couple times in class using OneNote instead of a real quill.” She laughed.

“That’s cool! What kind of sweets tonyou normally have where you’re from? Speaking of...where are you from?” Eniola was curious. The girl mentioned she had just moved. ‘Is it impolite to ask? Or insensitive? Ugh Eni you idiot! You only just met the girl! You don’t need to ask her life story.’ But Eni couldn’t deny she was curious about the girl. “Well, I could share some sweet sweet with you! I don’t mind. Maybe we’ll be in some of the same classes? We look the same age. Wait. How old are you?” Eniola really couldn’t stop the curiosity from getting the best of her. She mentally smacked herself in the head. ‘Stop asking questions!! Leave the poor girl alone!’

That’s when Eni realized he was asking so many questions of the girl but hadn’t even introduced herself yet! “Oh, I’m so sorry! My name is Eni, Eniola Abara. 6th year!” she beamed at the girl, hoping that would help make up for the personal question asking.

Watch out the transfiguration professor, that sounded like a good advice. "Duly noted." Aurora slightly nodded. She had met like a couple of Hogwarts student but none of them mentioned about the professors. This could be a handy tip for a new student like her. The Korean-American couldn't help but slightly chuckled when she asked where was she from. Technically she's Korean by blood, but she was born and raised in USA. "I'm from America." She answered. "And we do have various sweets, I'm more a lollipop person but I don't mind chocolate." Her eyes watched the homemade lollipops at the aisle, probably she should get some of them and try by herself.

.... You know, it's kinda rude and offensive when someone asked about her age. But probably it's just different here, Aurora had no idea. So she just gave the girl a hint of smile and casually answered her question. "I'm sixteen, I'll be sixth year this fall." Eniola, what a pretty name. It's just as pretty as her hair. "I'm Aurora." She mentioned her name and extended her hand.

Eni nodded, “Yeah, as long as you aren’t eating sweets in class you should be good. The teachers are pretty nice over all.”

America? That’s pretty cool. Eniola thought. “It’s nice to meet you! I haven’t met anyone from America before. Do you like it there?” She asked. “I’m not big on chocolate myself. I prefer purer forms of sugar...as in coated in sugar. Mum thinks I’m going to get diabetes before I’m 20 because I have so much sugar.”

Eniola shook Aurora’s outstretched hand and smiled. “Well, welcome! I hope you enjoy Hogwarts. It takes a bit of an adjustment when you’re from another country, it’s easy to miss home - trust me, but people are really friendly.” Eni hope she was being assuring for her future schoolmate as she gave her a small smile.
