Candies, sodas, gums, ice cream… oh my!

After having a drink and lunch at Happy Thought Coffee, we needed some dessert. We each had a $25 gift card to Little Land of Candy, so walked up there to pick out some sweets.

We entered and were greeted with a cluttered front of the store. The first 10 feet felt like they were packing up all their christmas decorations as there were boxes everywhere. There was also a table of assorted tupperware containers for sale. Quite the odd entrance area but we quickly moved beyond that and entered the Willy Wonka Chocolate factory-like place.

Despite it being a smaller shop, it was packed to the brim with things that would make a diabetic person swoon from just looking around. Candies, chocolates, gummies, sodas, energy drinks and so on and so forth were lining the walls and shelves. We all grabbed a hand basket and set to town spending our $25.

Aside from a few things, nothing really had a price label. So we threw caution to the wind and started loading our baskets up with more snacks than any one person should really have. We browsed the store front to back, side to side, picking up random stuff and tossing it in our baskets. After about 20 minutes, we all had picked out our goodies and proceeded to the cashier.

The cashier was super patient and friendly as we all checked out at the same time. Not knowing what each thing cost, we had no idea what our totals would come close to. Matt was first to go and spent $26.50. I was second and my total was $35.50. Tim was last and spent the least at around $25.95. We quickly gathered up our sugar and headed back to the car.

If you’ve ever been to a local candy store, this place will feel familiar. If you’ve ever been to a Rocket Fizz, then you’ll recognize some of the brands and products in this place. Some stuff was even labeled with the Rocket Brand logo. This was a pleasant surprise as I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to one of their stores before.

If you find yourself with a sweet tooth and in the Chillicothe area, Little Land of Candy will surely have what your sweet tooth desires. You might even find a few new odds and ends there that you fall in love with.

The store is very well stocked, when you enter it is like going back in time, its atmosphere evokes years ago. Great variety of Sweets and Sugary Drinks, you can also find Ice Cream.

There was a large selection of candy and soda, but a lot of it was expired. He also accused me and my family of shoplifting because we were in for a long time, and made multiple purchases. It took a while because there weren't any prices on anything. I will say, they do have a good selection of old candy you cannot find elsewhere. I may be biased, but I still would not recommend coming here.

Best ice cream in town! The only problem i have is making a decision Lol. They also have a huge selection of candy and soda. It's so awesome to have these cute little shops in our small town.

Wonderful little gem of a place that sells stuff from commonplace candies to things on the stranger side like candied bugs and unusual flavors of soda. They also serve truffles, ice cream, and other snacks. (Ice cream is fantastic and at a very low price for what you get!)

Staff was very courteous and helpful and was very open to chatting, definitely livened things up!

Definitely worth visiting and a cool little place to take the lids for sweets or ice cream. Heck, as a man this place made me giddy as joys like this are so difficult to come by these days.

It's a cute place and I had fun looking at the candy. We wanted to try the ice cream but a guy came in with his boys and they thought it would be fun to ask to try samples of almost every single flavor. (I mean, come on, you don't need to sample cookie dough) We got tired of waiting for their little game to end, so we left. It's not the fault of the store though. Cute place, we'll try again some other time.
