Al was very helpful with ordering our large Christmas orders. They wrapped the chocolates upon request and the whole operation was smooth and flawless thanks to the team!
George Buffett started Buffett's Candies after graduating from the University of New Mexico in 1951 with a degree in Business Administration. He wanted to be in business for himself and his mother, Irma, suggested candy making.
Many people ask him 'Why candy?' and Irma thought he could do it relatively inexpensively since all you need is a pot and a stove! Well, it took a little more than that but in 1956, Buffett's Candies was born.
Over the years, George also started a couple of other businesses (B&H Wholesale, a concession supply business and The Popcorn Cannery, a popcorn factory) but Buffett's Candies is the best known. Commonly referred to as 'the place with the big candy cane', the store is now a landmark!
