I am familiar with the Rocket Fizz chain but didn't know there was one in Tyler until I stumbled upon it by chance. It is located between Coldwater Creek and Burger King and if you love candy and soda it's worth a visit. I've never gotten excited over taffy but if you're a fan there is a wide assortment of flavors. Of the ones I have tried, I thought the pineapple, hot chocolate, strawberry lemonade, gingerbread, coffee, watermelon, and caramel cheesecake were pretty good. I did not care for the red velvet, blueberry muffin, cherry cola, cran raspberry, or banana. Rocket Fizz has its own line of soda but they also carry hundreds of other sodas that are arranged by category. There is a section for root beers, one for ginger beers, one for colas, one for savory sodas, then fruit-flavored, etc. Their novelty sodas are fun. I couldn't resist the Kitty Piddle soda which tastes like Pineapple Orange. If you like British sweets you'll find Curly Wurly, Yorkie, Lion, Aero, Bounty, Wispa, Toffee Crisp, Starbar and many others but no Flake so I was a bit disappointed. They have a small selection of colorfully packaged Japanese sweets. I hope they will expand this section.There are nostalgic sweets--candy cigarettes, licorice pipes, Astro Pops, ring pops, candy necklaces, Good News, Cherry Mash, rock candy, and stick candy. You'll find the Harry Potter chocolate frogs and Bertie Bot's assorted jellybeans with flavors like earwax, earthworm, rotten egg, and soap. And if you enjoy eating bugs you'll find crickets and mealworms in assorted flavors like bbq and sour cream and onion as well as scorpion and worm lollipops. There's a lot to see. We spent almost an hour there and didn't see everything. Bring a child or bring your inner child and find an old favorite or try something new.
