Next to them are T-shirts featuring a portrait of Democratic candidate Kamala Harris with the caption "yes we kam," a reference to the "Yes We Can" slogan used by the 2008 Barack Obama presidential campaign.
Bright red "Make America Great Again" baseball hats are also on sale, alongside wig hats resembling the Republican candiate’s hair and Trump rubber duckies.
The shop also features milk chocolate bars with a portrait of Harris, but no Trump-themed sweets.
