It’s Valentine’s Day, a day full of love and lots of sweets.

In case anyone still has some last minute shopping to do The Sweet Shop in Cadillac has you covered!

We spent some time getting ready for this sweet holiday at the Sweet Shop in downtown Cadillac.

We covered just about anything we could find in chocolate.

“It’s just fun when people come in. When you’re waiting on them you kind of get to know have they been married for a long time is this is a first or second date, it’s really fun,” Janeen Russell, Owner.

In all 15 years of owning The Sweet Shop Janeen Russell says Valentine’s Day is always her busiest day.

“We actually have one person dipping strawberries all day long we’ll start at about 7 in the morning and then we will just dip, dip, dip, all day. Today we will be dipping over 100 pounds of strawberries,” Russell says.

More than 58 million pounds of chocolate are sold on this very day. The Sweet Shop says chocolate covered strawberries is one of its hottest sellers

If your sweetie doesn’t love strawberries, there’s plenty more to choose from!

“Caramel corn, our boxed candy, people can come pick out of the case if they know their sweetheart just likes sea salt caramels they can get a pound of sea salt caramels, crispy treats, caramel apples, anything,” Russell says.

Customers like Luke Scanlon says a stop at the sweet shop is a must every year.

“I will get a huge and a kiss and told happy Valentine’s Day that’s the best part,” Scanlon says.

And if you have a more daring darling try the chocolate covered bacon.

 “It’s great when I first heard about it I’m like ugh no but it’s really good, it has the sweet salty, its perfect,” Russell says.
