New Candy Store in Lockport!!

PINKY SWEETS CANDY SHOP OPENS in Lockport

How long has it been since Lockport had a candy store?

I really don't know, since I moved away in l967 and

just returned last year. However, I do remember going

to a candy store on the north side of Main Street, not

far from the big bridge in the mid l960's. It was so

much fun to go in and look at all the sweets lined up 

behind glass.  I particularly liked the round flat mints

that came in different colors and flavors and the owner

would let me buy one or two at a time, which she put into

a small white bag for me to take with me. What a treat

that was!!

On Saturday, December 5th, Pinky Sweets Candy Shop

opened up at Windsor Village on Stevens Street. They

offered a free bag of treats to the first twenty

customers. I was lucky enough to be one of the first

twenty.  

I met two young ladies

who were cheerfully running 

the shop. I was delighted with the many colorful 

displays of candy on the walls, tables and shelves
.

So much to choose from! Ohhhhh......I was surprised

to see SKY BARS, which brought back happy memories from

my childhood. It was fun to break a Sky Bar into four

parts, each section had a different filling: either caramel,

vanilla, peanut or fudge. Now I can do that again!

PINKY SWEETS will be open Tuesdays and Wednesday from

ten a.m. until six p.m., Thursdays and Fridays from ten

a.m. until eight p.m. and Saturdays from ten a.m. until

four p.m. They offer a wide variety of all kinds of 

candies. I am sure there is something for everyone! 

If you need items to fill your kids or grandkids Christmas

stockings, PINKY SWEETS can help!
