This is one place your sweet tooth is sure to love! Take a look:
Please note, Livingston Sweet Shoppe is temporarily closed.
Pretty remote, Livingston Sweet Shoppe is located in the unincorporated community of Livingston, which is in the small town of Flora.
You’ll find Livingston at the intersection of highways 463 and 22 in Madison County.
The charming candy shop fits in perfectly in Livingston. The picturesque community has recently been revived and designed to look like a town from the late 1800s.
In addition to the candy shop, Livingston includes two restaurants, a mercantile store, and cooking school.
Livingston Sweet Shoppe opened in the summer of 2015. Despite being in business for less than four years, it’s already a favorite of kids – and kids at heart, which probably has something to do with the huge assortment of vintage candies.
Stock up on all your favorites from the past. You’ll find all sorts of classics, like rock candy, wax lips, and NECCO Wafers.
The shop’s old-timey vibe is evident way before you look at the candy, though. As soon as you step inside, you’re sure to notice the hundreds of old fashioned jars that hold the candy.
Livingston Sweet Shoppe is located at 1150 Old Cedars Lane, Suite C, Flora, MS 39071. For more information, call (601) 415-2719. You can also visit the shop’s website or Facebook page.
