You name it, Economy Candy has it (but sometimes you had to buy it in 1/2 lb. bags!). The longtime "local" candy store, right in the middle of the Lower East Side, feels like a step back in time. Pressed tin ceilings and antique candy boxes, games, and gumball machines lined the walls of the store, and kids (including us!) eagerly ran around grabbing their favorite sweet treats.
Ella, a fellow sweet tooth-er and candy fan, was the perfect friend to join me on this adventure. As soon as we walked in, both of our jaws dropped (just enough to fit in the GIANT gummy bear Ella found!)
One chocolate bar, a bag of Italian peppermints, a bag of chocolate toffee almonds, and a package of Beeman's chewing gum later, we found our way safely out of the store before a sugar coma set in.
Yummmm!
