The Story
A family candy company where the retail room smells like boiling sugar — divinity, brittle, chocolates and glass-bottle sodas for the road.

On the day we visited the store was being ran by young people. They were very playful on the inside of the store by tossing things back and forth behind the counter. One young man came outside to play with a watergun, etc. They smirked a lot and made shopping there feel weird. They did not interact with us and the customer service left a lot to be desired. The site is nice and new but was literally empty. The Milner location is better as far as atmosphere and service.

My kid and I saw it from the road on our way somewhere and made a special stop on the way back to try it. It's a cute little store on one side and the candy/ice cream shop is on the other. The candy store has a small selection of candies, but the real draw is a good selection of fudge, a few flavors of pecans, chocolate covered Oreos, haystacks, cake pops off the stick, and several other homey treats. They also have coffee, a small selection of hand-dipped (my kid was very adamant that the fact it was hand-dipped made it better) ice cream with a few toppings, and milkshakes. My kid got a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream and I got a chocolate shake. They had tons of milkshake flavors (I got chocolate hazelnut with whipped cream and a cherry). The ice cream, as I was repeatedly informed, was very thick. The milkshake was fantastic. Very thick but still drinkable through the wide straw. Kid gave the ice cream "a solid 10/10." There were 2 staff members there and they were both very kind and patient. They were helpful without being overbearing, which I sincerely appreciate, especially since we were the only people in. We will definitely be back next time we're passing through!
