If you've got a sweet tooth, then you need to make your way over to the Candy Cottage in Mississippi. This charming little sweet shop is just overflowing with sugar sweets, both nostalgic candies and homemade treats that you'll want to stock up on.
The Candy Cottage is located right in the heart of Ocean Springs.
It’s right on the town’s main drag, Washington Avenue, a lovely little walkable area with tons of restaurants, cafes, and shopping opportunities.
No matter what your age is, you’ll feel like a kid all over again when you step inside this whimsical candy shop.
The sweet shop is fully stocked on all your sugary needs, including some blasts from the past you may have forgotten about.
Go ahead and grab some old-school candy and introduce the next generation to your favorite sweets when you were a kid.
In addition to the endless sea of candy, the homemade section is really where things get sweet.
The Candy Cottage offers an endless array of handmade chocolates, ranging from chocolate-dipped potato chips to handmade turtles.
The pecan logs are one of the store’s biggest sellers, and you’ll want to try one.
The family recipe dates back to the 1930s, and it’s still made the same way it was nearly a century ago. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!
If you can't make it to the store in person, you can always visit the Candy Cottage website and place your order online, and it'll be shipped right to your front door.
While the Candy Cottage may be a hidden gem, it's not the only hidden gem in the state! Gas up the car and embark on this epic road trip in Mississippi to discover all the incredibly unique, lesser-known attractions in the state.
