The Penny Candy Store

Horrible candy. I purchased some candy yesterday. Some of the jelly beans had no flavor, others were disgusting flavors, most were old and hard. My guess is the retail store is where they get rid of the old inventory from their wholesale side. There are better stores in Norwood (Furlongs), Dedham (at the Legacy Place) and Mansfield.

Candy, Candy and even MORE Candy!
Three big rooms of it, and pretty much everything you can think/​imagine/​dream of (although the one thing I was hoping for was not in the store; I called first, but still decided to check this out). Individual bars of things you can find elsewhere, and some you haven’t seen in ages (Mary Janes, Squirrel Nuts), Boston Fruit Slices (THE BEST brand, IMHO) in all of the flavors… and just a lot to look at.
As someone else mentioned, some of the things you can find cheaper elsewhere, but if you are looking for particular colors and a lot of it (a shower, birthday party, wedding, etc) this would just be easier. There are also some online places that sell these items, but when you factor in shipping and then wonder what might happen to the candy during seasonal temperature changes, sometimes online candy ordering isn’t the way to go. Trust me, I speak from experience.
It turns out I have passed this place dozens of times; just off Route 1 on the Northbound side.

This little store is kind of tucked away on a side street in Sharon, MA, which I discovered simply because I worked down the street from it! I would occasionally take a short walk during lunch down the street whenever I had a sweet tooth!
They literally have every single kind of candy you have ever seen, heard of, or can even name. Plus a million more that you have NEVER seen, heard of, or can name! They have all the kinds of candy you had when you were a kid that you thought disappeared from the world, but the reality is, this store has it, WalMart doesn’t. Plus they have tons of chocolate and nuts. They don’t just sell candy!
The only downside is that the candy is not wholesale prices and kind of expensive. They sell manufacturer wrapped items at somewhat cheaper prices in singles, but they also have their own containers of candy and chocolate treats that are packaged at their facility that are expensive. For example, I bought a 10 Oz container of salted almonds for $ 8.
Overall, this place is a delight! If you are looking to buy candy in bulk for an event or wedding, this is definitely the place to go to find everything you are looking for. Especially for people who are very particular and are looking for certain things that can’t be found at the supermarket.

This place was a fantastic find! I’m planning a candy buffet for my wedding and this was a total jackpot for finding specialty candies in my party colors. They were so friendly and helpful. Only downside is it didn’t seem super cheap, but it was worth it for me to get the specialty things that I couldn’t find at walmart or sams club. They had so many candies I’ve never even seen in any other store!
