In this old train station turned candy shop, you'll be greeted
by the aroma of just-cooked fudge and three huge glass frames
filled high with colorful jellybeans hanging below the register.
Let your taste buds guide you through the store to bushel baskets
of foil-wrapped candy and soft salt water taffy, then past a hutch filled
completely with licorices: salty buttons, sweet ropes of molasses,
licorice wheels, baby nibs and Dutch licorice. Free-standing
cupboards are filled to overflowing with all kinds of treats like
drawers full of old-fashioned candy bars like Uno, Sky Bars
and Rocky Road or pop rocks.
Though the candy shop feels
like you're in mom's kitchen, no one will stop you from reaching
into the drawers and picking whatever your sweet tooth craves.
Find shelves lined with old-fashioned drinks like Bubble-up.
Fill your bag with 12 colors of Sixlets or 48 flavors of Jelly Belly jelly beans,
chocolate-covered sunflower seeds, gummy bears in all
colors of the rainbow, jawbreakers, chocolate-toffee covered
almonds and many varieties of sugar-free and gluten-free candy too.
Don't leave without a package of homemade fudge. Try the salted nut roll:
caramel, peanut butter and salty peanuts rolled into vanilla fudge,
or chocolate explosion with raisins and nuts, the raisin rum. The chewy
praline with caramel and sugared pecans or the mint Oreo, Butterfinger
or cookie dough fudges are also yummy. Try the chocolate covered
pretzels or in the fall fresh carameled granny smith apples.
Whatever your cravings, Sweet Afton's has the perfect treat for you.
