A Specialty Candy Store In Small Town Mississippi, Billie’s Pecans Is One Of The Best Sweet Shops On Earth
Several great companies hail from small town Mississippi, and Billie’s Pecans is one of them. The sweet shop specializes in pecans, selling the tasty nut all sorts of ways. Even more impressive than the variety is the fact that the small town shop has customers all over the world. Take a look:
A tiny town in Panola and Quitman counties, Crenshaw is home to about 900 residents.
The Crenshaw-born company sells flavored pecans, pecan-based treats, and other gourmet goodies. And it all happens in a 100-year-old building on Crenshaw’s Main Street.
When Billie’s Pecans opened all those years ago, cinnamon spiced pecans were the first item offered. Today, the cinnamon spiced pecans are still a huge hit, but they’re not the only option.
In addition to cinnamon spiced, choose between a variety of chocolate covered pecans, such as milk, white, and dark chocolate and chocolate infused with Grand Marnier and Amaretto.
