Nikki's Candy - edible Reno-Tahoe

Nikki’s Candy

Nikki’s Candy, a Swedish candy store, opened its doors on Oct. 28, 2025, in the Trader Joe’s shopping center on South McCarran in Reno. The shop is owned by Reno resident Nichole Patterson. Guests are invited to come in and mix their own candy bags from several vibrant options or choose a signature pre-mixed bag. Nikki’s Candy is a family affair. Nichole’s daughter, Vivian, created all of the artwork and the logo for the business.
