    Since July 4, 1885, Orne’s Candy Store has been a beloved Boothbay Harbor landmark. Originally opened by Addie Orne, the store brought a sparkle to Main Street from its early days selling ice cream and penny candy. Today, stepping inside still feels like visiting the past—glass cases brimming with fudge, salt water taffy, chocolates, licorice, and timeless treats, many displayed in nothing-fancy antique dishes. The iconic fudge, perfected decades ago, remains one of the most popular items. Run by the Webster family for generations, Orne’s is more than a candy store—it’s nostalgia squared, a place that connects sweet teeth and childhood memories, all under the stripe of a red-and-white awning. #OrnesCandyStore #BoothbayHarbor #MaineCoast #OldFashionedCandy #SweetTradition
