Hidden away in tiny Busti is this wonderful candy shop. They do much more than chocolates, with fudge, salt water taffy and maple sugar candies to name a few. Head toward Sugar Grove from five points and it's less than 1/2 mile.

Really good. The chocolate covered potato chips are divine, and the chocolate covered peanuts are just as good, 👍 lots of flavor
