Hi,
I'm looking for some old fashioned type candy for a project I'm working on... I need things like twisty lollipops and candied fruit slices. Does anyone know where I can find something like that? I feel like it's something I see all the time when I don't need it but then when I do, I have no clue where to look!

thanks!

crackerbarrel usually has stuff like that

the little shop at hill ridge farms in youngsville does too.

and if you really want to make a trip for it (lol) candyland on ocracoke island is a hidden gem!

There's a cute little store at North Hills, I think it's called the Lollipop Shop. It has lots of tasty sugary goodness.

Over near Durant Road in North Raleigh Mast General Store just opened. It had some old fashioned bulk candy. It was fun just to walk around!

Thanks for the great suggestions! I think Cracker Barrel is exactly where I was thinking I had seen candy.

It does look like Mast General Store but it is called Red Hill General Store. It is in the Falls River Shopping Center in North Raleigh.

They do have the candies you are asking about but Cracker Barrel also has them.
