The Sweet Spot was first opened in July '23 by Hillsboro-native, Katie Homa and her husband, Dylan Richter. Our Highland, IL location was opened November '24. We're a family-owned, small town sweet-tooth satisfying destination. What we offer is an extensive selection of candies, treats & drinks but what we provide is a unique & family-friendly experience for the community.
