Fuzzywig’s Candy Factory

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t think one is ever too old for a candy store. Then again, this is coming from someone who has
bookmarked. It’s a place where I can let my inner child let loose and a place I can peruse for hours on end. Fuzzywig’s Candy Factory was no exception.
Conveniently located inside Tuttle Mall, it’s my go-​to place for a quick pick-​me-​up, followed by Starbuck’s. A fourth of the store is solely devoted to Jelly Bellyism — a collection I could care less for. Another ¼ of FCF is strictly for all the different colors of M&M’s you never knew existed. And, lastly, the last half of the store. From typical bulk candies (salt water taffy) to sugar-​free chocolates (*shudder*) to hard to find candies (Zotz, anyone?) to inedible candy (duh, people, Now and Laters!), you can find just about any type of sugary goods to satisfy your sweet tooth.
I personally discovered Chocolate Ice Cubes during my last visit. Let’s just say that I pretended I didn’t see partially hydrogenated coconut oil as the very first thing listed on the ingredients list and continued on my merry way chomping on these heaven sent chocolates.
The fella who worked here was quite sociable, ridiculously patient, and apparently still adjusting to the Columbus scene/​folks, as he had just relocated from Long Island not too long ago. Prices are pretty decent, especially for the hard to find selections (~$ 8/​pound or $ 2.25/quarter of a pound.)
I shall be back!
