Tucked away in this darling storefront is an experience for the ages. The Goo Goo Cluster is a historic candy, and its legacy in Nashville goes unmatched. Invented in 1912, the Goo Goo Cluster holds the title as the first ever combination candy bar. Without its inception, candy bars like Snickers, Reeses and Milky Way would simply not exist.
