After Heather and I left Twigs, we headed back downtown to visit Shawano Library as part of the OWLS Library Road Trip. Heather sees a sign for a candy store and was like "Do you want to stop?". I never will pass up an opportunity to stop at a candy store. Besides I have this insane goal of visiting a candy store, among other things, in all 50 states and all 72 WI counties. This would knock Shawano County off the list.
Old Glory Candy is a small candy shop in Shawano. It is open 7 days a week.
It has several wooden racks of pre-package homemade candies including several sugar free varieties.
There were old school lollipops and other candy treats you would normally find in a candy store scattered around the edges of the stores on wooden racks or in wooden barrels.
All the good stuff of course was behind the counter. One case had homemade truffles. The varieties made it difficult for me to choose for myself but even harder to find one that hubby would like. I ended up with good choices -- Jack Daniels for me and Cookies and Cream for the hubby.
There was also a case of homemade fudge.. small batch homemade fudge. Heather picked up some fudge for her family. She had some hard choices to decide which four flavors. When you buy a pound, you get a 1/4 lb free. So she got Whiskey Old Fashion and gave me a portion. It was also delicious.
If you are going to Shawano, stop by this small business and salsify your sweet tooth. There is something for everyone. The prices are very reasonable. Grab your soda at Twigs and candy at Old Glory Candy before headed out to the lake. It is definitely worth the stop.
