The Windward Promenade · Shop
Sweet Horizons Confectionery
A whole wall of jars, and brass scales that always round in your favour.
The bay window faces straight out to sea, so the light in here is the colour of the water. Tall glass jars run the length of the wall, the copper drum spins candy floss on the hour, and the rock is pulled and rolled on the marble counter every morning before the promenade wakes up. Everything is weighed by hand and twisted shut in a paper bag.
