Passport Stop #8: Baker's Candies
Located in Greenwood, NE, Baker's Candies is the largest candy shop in Nebraska and well worth every second spent there.
First and foremost, they make the best chocolate meltaways ever. Absolutely hands down. Ever. My favorites are the Scooters coffee and milk chocolate mint flavors, but I've never had a bad one.
As you can see, they have other types of candy, as well. Many of them you aren't going to find in every store anymore. I must have said, "Oh! I haven't seen these in forever!" at least ten times.
They also have different flavors of pop. We always get a few different kinds when we go, as my husband likes to make magnets out of the bottlecaps. Again, many of these aren't going to be at your local grocery store or Walmart.
I love that they also carry many "from Nebraska" items, such as the Misty's seasoning. That was a staple in our house growing up and I'm excited to use it again!
I was really surprised at the selection of barbecue sauces and seasonings that they had, as well. We grabbed this Uncle Earnie's barbecue sauce, made in Cedar Creek, NE. I plan on using this to grill some BBQ chicken soon!
Overall, this is a great place to find some unique items made right here in the heartland. I definitely recommend that you stop by!
