Redmon's Candy Factory

This is a very cute little candy shop. They have bags you can buy and filled to the brim. They have a good selection of chocolates and candies. As well as a fine assortment of taffy. It's very interesting to see the glass window with all the chocolates on display, and definitely a good snack stop. Overall if you're stopping to get gas this is definitely a nice little spot to grab some gas and a couple snacks for the road. As well as next door having the largest gift store is also very fun. Both of these sections are a good combination of each other. Letting you enjoy some sweet treats, and perhaps get a couple of comfort items next door. When I got there it was fairly busy. But some people really just loading up those bags of candy. And taffy. Everything from bottled root beers to rich chocolate.

They are right off the highway & they have truck parking!! They smell so delightful as soon as you open the door! The popcorn aroma fills your nose & you can smell the sweetness of all of the different flavors 🤤. They have tons of different candies. One side of the counter has specialty treats covered in chocolate & the other side has an assortment of fudges. One side is mainly salt water taffy flavors. On top of that they have HUGE beautiful restrooms!!! I would go back. Glad we stopped.

It was a lot of hype for what it was. Part of the store was just candy You can get in a store that is poured into a bucket and you pay $10 a pound. The pecan clusters were $27 a pound as is the rest of the chocolate. Most giant clusters average nine dollars a piece I’m not sure how much the fudge was I didn’t even look. The popcorn was $5.99 a bag. They had quite a few varieties. I chose the mixed one and it was actually very good. As you can see, I got a salted caramel dark chocolate and a dark chocolate topping and a small cluster for a little over five dollars. The guest store was absolutely huge and it had just about every game you can imagine, Christmas, ornaments, coffee, cups, crafts, and puzzles and more. I just couldn’t find anything because everything I picked up was made in China or I think the one tag said inspired design made in China. I think this would actually be a good place for Christmas shop because they have something for everyone if you like purchasing non-local made in China items.

We stopped at Redmon’s Candy Factory and World’s Largest Gift Shop during a week-long vacation in Missouri. The buildings are even larger than they appear from the highway, and once inside, the variety is truly overwhelming—in the best possible way. From an enormous selection of candy and unique gifts to quirky T-shirts, hilarious socks, toys, and beyond, there's something for everyone. We planned for a quick stop and ended up staying much longer just exploring everything. The cotton candy flavors alone were wild—so many to choose from—PB&J, Pancake, Spicy Jalapeño! (Though we couldn’t quite bring ourselves to try the Pickle flavor). If you're passing through, Redmon’s is absolutely worth a stop. You never know what you'll find, and that’s half the fun!

I was very impressed with the wide variety of treats, from taffy in countless styles and flavors to rich chocolate turtles, fresh popcorn, creamy fudge, and so much more. It’s easy to spend money here because everything looks (and tastes) amazing. The staff are all friendly, professional, and make you feel welcome. The candy itself is excellent ..fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Even the bathrooms are spotless and well-maintained. Overall, this is definitely a great stop to make while on the road!

What a super fun spot! They literally have everything your kid heart desires, from large jawbreakers to weird sodas! There were so many things from the 90s and early 2000s as well, really helped my inner childhood nostalgia. Service was excellent too, they have homemade fudge and chocolate treats (they give you free samples to try any of them)! We got some fun sodas and fudge (strawberry cheesecake and dark chocolate orange), so so good! Can’t wait to come back and get more things I probably don’t need lol. I highly recommend checking it out at least once!

I believe every type of every candy and fudge is made or sold here! It’s associated with a Phillips 66 gas station and the “proclaimed “ Worlds largest gift shop. It’s worth a stop and is usually busy. Several registers operating at the same time but the line can still get pretty long. Store hours in the last photo.

Stop here on the way home from Fantastic Caverns and the wild safari. The candy was good and the Taffy was fresh. Is approximately $5 per pound and I got a small handful of candy so I could try one of this and that. So it ends up being approximately 5 or 6 pieces of candy for $1 depending on what you get. We thought it was the big building in the picture but that's just a giant gift store. The actual candy store is the little gas station looking thing in front of it. It's kind of crowded but there is definitely a lot to choose from. They also have some mugs and knick-knacks and other things that are kind of cute.

Unfortunately they didn't have the flavor of fudge I was looking for, but there were so many other choices that I found something else that was great. I really liked being able to pick my own mix of flavors of salt water taffy. The place was very crowded, and the staff seemed overwhelmed. But overall we were happy that we stopped in here.

Wow. So much candy and fudge here. You can really make some bad choices. They literally had every single kind of candy you've ever heard of, or tried from your childhood. All nostalgic favorites were available and they had so much fudge. It's easy to get to right off the interstate and is co-located in the same parking lot as the "World's Largest Gift Store" - I'm not sure if that is accurate, but, there you go. So you can easily visit both while you're here. We were due for a pit stop so we pulled over here and browsed and got some snacks and candy. Also - the bathroom was super nice and spotless and spacious with tons and tons of stalls and very nice baby changing stations. Win! If you have any sort of sweet tooth at all, you must stop in.

This place is just across (walking few steps) from World's Largest Giftshop,love the smell of candies,popcorn as soon as we walked in and staff are nice greeting us as soon as we walked in.So much candies of all kinds,assorted fudge,and yes,they have a fancy very clean restrooms,their restroom even have a fancy chandeliers.We bought a lot of candies and different flavored popcorn which are so good.Prices are good here,very affordable and we were not disappointed on our purchases

The store smells amazing as soon as you walk in. There were a lot of people inside, but I was still able to move around. I thought the sweets were a bit pricey, but it's nice to just browse. I love that there's a small chocolate factory on the left where they make a lot of treats. They have lots of taffy and old-fashioned goodies.

We got a lot of different turtles and they were all amazing. I love the original and anything they have with marshmallows lol the staff always gives out samples and they have alot of other candy. I will ALWAYS stop through when I'm on my way past on a road trip.

Coming home from a road trip I kept seeing billboard signs enticing me to stop and see the greatest collection of candy and finally after the 15th sign I gave in . Kudos to advertising team , they leave nothing to the imagination, they inform you on everything you're missing out on if you don't stop to at least take a look . I'm so glad I did:) Parking lot ample and a gas station is also provided in case you need gas. Upon walking in you feel like a kid all over again. Plenty of people so get ready to maneuver and share space . They have a fudge counter, chocolate counter, popcorn, fountain drinks, old fashion soft drinks, goofy socks, taffy, old school barrels of candies , flavored popcorn etc. Restroom is one for the stars . Lights camera action as you walk in . Beautiful spacious and clean . Staff friendly and checkout was speedy. I will definitely be back .

Such delicious and fresh candy. Always busy. For years we have stopped every time we pass thru here, just west of Lebanon.

Despite seeing the signs every trip, I've never stopped until today. Well, now I will be stopping every trip! Large variety of snacks, free samples, but most importantly the bathrooms!! Gorgeous, clean, chandeliers, etc. Extremely impressed.

It was fun watching all the grown ups acting like kids in a candy store. Of course that's what we all are; just a bunch of grown up kids. Maybe that's why there are so many adults spending so much time and money in here. Watching them all leave with bags and bags of candy I could only think that they will never be able to eat all that candy, but as kids we had limited resources. The only time we could go nuts was on Halloween. As grown ups though, being in a candy store with actual disposable income and no adult supervision, the inner kids in us go crazy in places like this. And what a fun place to go crazy in this is! If you love fudge, taffy or dark chocolates this is the place for you. The parking lot is dangerous, but not as dangerous as this place is to my dental insurance.

I stopped here on my way to Branson. You cannot miss this place. There are so many billboards along the route leading to the exit that the place is located off of. This is a candy store on steroids. They have just about every candy or treat that you can think of. They have taffy, fudge, brittle, gummies, jaw breakers, turtles, logs, flavored popcorn, chocolate covered nuts and much, much more. The staff there is friendly and helpful. This place is an unapologetic tourist trap and is co-located with a gas station and sits right in front of what they call the Worlds Largest Gift Store. There is ample parking and being a tourist trap...and a good on I may add, this place gets a lot of traffic. The place was chaos while I was there and my goal was to get in and get out. They do actually make fudge and other candy on site and you can view the actually factory part of the store through glass windows. In addition to finding every type of candy you can think of, I even saw some hard to find candy from my childhood, they have some toys/novelties and exotic/odd bottled drinks. Being that I have two kids that just brought in a huge haul of Halloween candy, I did not need or want any more candy in the house at the time. I opted to get some odd drinks. I got butter, corn, kettle corn and sour apple flavored soda pops. They were fresh out of the cooler and chilled. I really liked them. I knew that this was a tourist trap going in, so it was fine. Being a tourist trap, you will pay tourist prices. There are no dining options at this exit though, so if you are hungry, for food, you will have to add another stop. This is still a nice stop though and I recommend stopping here, if only for the experience.

On our way home from Branson we decided to stop at Redmon's candy shop. The candy store had a pretty good selection of different candies and homemade fudge and popcorn. The restrooms at the candy store were very nice and clean and large. I would definitely stop by and take a look around if you're in the area. Bonus that it is a gas station as well so you can fill up your tank while you're filling up your belly.

If billboards on the highway counting down the number of miles to something are your thing, then you'll absolutely get pulled in to Redmon's Candy Factory. They opened in 1995 and haven't looked back. Classic candies. Modern candies. Taffy. Chocolate dipped nuts and such. Kettle corn. Fudge. Yes, they have chocolate covered Twinkies, too. Coolers with a variety of hard-to-find soda flavors. I managed to escape with a bag of salty treats, a small tub of malt chocolates for my wife and two pecan turtles. [Review 19760 overall - 237 in Missouri - 732 of 2023.]

The best roadside rest stop I've ever visited. The restroom is gigantic and cleaner than my own home and I am a near freak. And, then there's all of the candy. More candy than I've ever seen before. There is nothing here that you need but everything you want. I was blown away by how nice it is.

This is a pure tourist stop but it's a stop you must make something for everyone to indulge in because who doesn't LOVE Candy and oh what a collection Salt Water Taffy my personal favorite

we highly recommend this stop if you are looking for candy if you want fresh taffy, chocolates, old time candies & much much more delicious candies we just came through 4/16/25 so incredibly clean extremely nice people too we will always stop in when in that area again

Saw Billboard for Free Chocolate samples And my husband asked me if I wanted to stop. Lol It's like he didn't even know me before. When you enter the smell of chocolate and sugar. Welcome as you period they had all kinds of candy from chocolate. To fudge and all kinds of old-fashioned candies. The free sample is just a little Teency fleck, Which was much smaller than I was expecting. But that didn't stop us From buying other Chocolates. I especially like the dark chocolate mint. They dont give free samples, even the tiny fleck of certain chocolates. The public bathrooms are particularly nice, so it's worth a stop just for that If you are traveling.

I can't bring myself to stop in a place that has such an awful graphic design! Hideous!

If you ever find yourself on I-44 somewhere between Springfield and St. Roberts, stop by Redmon's Candy Factory...I promise you won't regret it! I stopped there to get gas, but was pleasantly surprised at the selection of candy they have inside. I literally felt like a kid in a candy shop, so much candy to choose from. Bonus, their bathrooms were impeccably clean!

This is one of my favorite places on earth! I have seen every candy on earth here! The staff is super friendly! The ambiance family oriented! I l love the breathtaking restrooms it always clean and so well designed, with the beautiful lighting in the ladies restrooms! Which begs the question of what does the men's look like? My favorite joy is the candy from my childhood and oldies but goodies. Like the bubble gum cigarettes, Mary Janes, Chico- Sticks, salt water taffy's, candy necklaces, and so much more. The part that will wow you the most is the side of the store that has nothing but several barrels of salt water taffy's! The phrase a kid in a candy store is so appropriate! The candy is never hard always fresh and well organized! This is stop I must make when traveling on Highway 44.

Yes it's big, and yes they have a huge variety but it's a bit impersonal and the staff seems to warn out every time we go in here. It's a high-volume touristy shop so I get that they are really hustling to take care of everyone. This time we went in for a very specific thing, one of our granddaughters asked Santa for only one thing, a lollypop as big as her head. She had seen them on TV shows and had built up in her mind that they would be amazing. After trying several closer shops that failed to have them (or where they were all broken) we took the time to drive an extra hour each way just to get her a lollipop (yeah I'm an indulgent grandpa even if the kids all think I'm grumpy and have too many rules). I even called, and they said they have lollipops. Well sort of. There is a display behind the counter with four lollipops, and yes they were as big as your head! and about 8 more that were 4-6 inches. Even one of those would do. But I learned they were not actually for sale! Arrgh! So I ask why display them if they are not for sale? The two people who engaged with me had no idea. I asked if they had more somewhere in the shop and they did. Little two-inch lollipops on a stick big enough to hold up one of those giant ones. That was it, very disappointing. Yes, we bought a few other things and yes we will come back but I was a bit angry that they were displaying what I was looking for but would not sell them. One other thing, they have the best restrooms! I think the restrooms should be a feature on the many roadside signs enticing you in. They are huge, very clean, bright, and perfectly maintained. Well Done on that one! Along with candy, fudge, chocolates, and other treats they have many candies from the past, brands, and flavors many of us had long forgotten they still seem to have. And they have an expansive assortment of over-priced sodas of every flavor and brand imaginable.

100x YESSSSS to this fantastic, delicious, beautiful store. The bathrooms were huge & extremely clean, each stall was very private.. Now onto the candy . Lawdddd did this store have every type of candy you could think of. Fresh fudge made right there, every flavor, sugar free, low sugar, Dark chocolate, Milk chocolate, white chocolate, list goes on n on.. The flavors were basically anything you could imagine. I HIGHLY recommend stopping in here if you can. Next door there is a Huge gift store that was really neat as well. Definitely make a visit. Well worth it.

Cute little roadside stop. Stopped on a long road trip. I got some really good chocolate walnut fudge.

My friends and I stopped here while we were on a road trip. We first parked and went into the "largest gift shop ever" which was in a separate building than the candy factory. It probably was the largest gift shop ever haha it was huge! The candy factory was pretty big, but not as big as the other building. It was very crowded when we walked in. When you first enter the doors you will see the cashiers and the fudge counter. To the left and right of the counter is shelves and shelves of candy. There is a decent amount of repeat candy on both sides, but there are some differences. I bought some cherry gummies that reminded me of my childhood and some fudge. It was good, but my stomach regretted it later haha.

One if the best places I've ever seen for old school candies I have seen in a while. So many to choose from depending on your sweet tooth. The variety of fudge is a must try! You also get a chance to sample them! Bring a toothbrush to prevent cavities!

Nice clean bathrooms! Several stalls. Candy is tasty but expensive! One pecan turtle $4. Soooo good though. Lots to choose from for travels!

My husband and I work night shift and decided to drive the 1 hour and -5 min drive up there and when we got there at 755pm they saw us then turned the lights off until we pulled out of the parking lot. Even though yelp Google and their own door said they close at 9pm. It was absolutely ridiculous and to be honest annoying.

This is a stop just to see the variety of candy. If you crave it they have it. Vintage candy in abundance along with the newest fads. You like fudge? They got it. The bathrooms are clean and private. Get your gas, use the facilities and get some snacks for your road trip.

I've driven by Redmon's many times on trips to Branson and AR... but never stopped... BOY was I missing out! On my home from Branson with a friend when she wanted to stop there due to the GLAMOUROUS bathrooms! (She had been before). Yes you may have read about them, I had not before we stopped. These bathrooms are Top Model ready for you to stretch your legs and strut through, check your outfit, use the facility and they have hand washing and trash disposal areas. Seriously these bathrooms are so BIG you can bring an entire tour bus in and still have room! Now.... let's talk candy. SO MUCH CANDY. All kinds of candy - sugar, sweet, chocolate. There is a viewing window where you can watch the candy being made and a specialty counter where you can purchase handmade candies and fudge. There are more fudge types than I have ever seen in my life! If you don't have time to wait at the counter to order there are many grab and go options in the aisles. They also have specialty popcorn and cotton candy! Employees were helpful and friendly. The counter employee explained a few of the handmade candies to me so I could make an informed decision. So yes I did purchase 4 different kinds of candy... but ate them so fast that there are NO pics :( I had a dark chocolate coconut haystack, peanut butter ball, cookies and cream bark and got Hubby a cookie dough candy. The Peanut butter ball was my fave and reminded me of the seasonal Reese's offering (trees, hearts, eggs) but BETTER! Warning - do not bring your kids here if you don't want to buy candy because well that would be torture lol.

Anything you can think of covered in chocolate they have! Personal favorites are; chocolate covered espresso beans, dark chocolate almonds, and malt balls. The kid loves the chocolate rocks, and wax sodas "eww." You can also still get old school candy here as well like; candy smokes "yes the ones that look like cigarettes!" Pecan logs, taffy, and tons of fudge! They are a little pricey, but they have a ridiculous selection. Definitely worth stopping in if you have a sweet tooth, or need a pick me up. Behind the candy store is the "worlds largest gift shop." I haven't been in there yet; it's candy then gone.

THIS IS A GREAT REST STOP!! I've driven by this place dozens of times on my way to Chicago and it is one of our designated restroom stops. In addition to stalking up on the occasion malt delectable chocolates & timeless candies inside! The employees are always so welcoming and even give out samples of the fudge!!! The bathrooms have just been renovated so they're hands-down the cleanest and most chic rest stop restrooms in all of history! This is a great stop for any road trip! Browsing down the candy aisle or stocking up on snacks or soda pops.... it is enjoyable for everyone!

The best peanut butter cookie dough fuge I've ever ate my life I'm driving two hundred miles out way to get some more yummy fuge worth every bit

If you are travelling through Missouri on highway 44, make a stop at Redmon's Candy Factory. It is a fun stop to pick up a wide variety of sweets. They have small free samples of their fudge and of their chocolate. This place is more about the experience than the candy itself. They make candy and have some unique finds, but also have a standard candy selection you would find at the supermarket. Since you've likely been driving some time when you get there, be sure to use the restrooms. The restrooms are large, clean, and have chandeliers giving an air of a very fancy location. :) They do not offer a military discount.

Tourist trap if ever! We stopped on our way back to Chicago. We got Peanut Briddle and "penny" candy. For two small...and I mean small bags and the PB we paid $31.00! The PB was marked but we did not see prices by the other candy. What a rip off!! Some of our Peanut Briddle tasted racid, and the chocolate "penny" candy was old. We would not recommend this place or go back there. But as others said, the bathrooms were clean. They tried to sell you stuff from the moment you walked in.

We stopped to get gasoline & use the restrooms on 28 Aug 2024 just before 6 pm. I have problems with my vision so I stopped at the register to ask the location of the restrooms. As I entered the restroom, the young girl who had given me directions called out, 'Bonus points for looking before you ask.' On my way out, I stopped and told her 'Bonus points if you're not a jerk when someone asks for help.' We left without buying anything other than the gasoline. Staff needs training on respect / customer service!!

Excellent selection of candy and fun sodas. They have bathrooms and a gas station. A fun and convenient stop. I bought 'dragon drool' soda for my D&D crew.

Stopped at Redmon's Candy Factory during a road trip because of their tempting signage on the road. The candy store has a wide variety of candies to choose from including saltwater taffy, more commercial/packaged candies like Kit Kat and skittles, flavored popcorns, and fudge. I love saltwater taffy in general so this was a great place for me. The popcorn was surprisingly delicious for packaged popcorn. We didn't like the fudge, it was pretty sweet but I'm also not a huge fudge fan. My only complaint is that there is so much going on in a relatively small space. It was very crowded when I was there. It was packed and chaotic and I was bumped and jostled quite a bit but I didn't mind because at the end of the day, we're all just trying to get to the candy!

Fun place to stop on a road trip. Lots of snacks and candy to buy. Cleanest bathrooms I have ever seen. Highly recommend.

This candy shop was so good . They literally had everything. But it was kind of a money so I think they lower the prices.

Off of I-44, this is like the oasis for kids and adult alike. There are at least 20 signs letting you know of the exit. You will know when you get there. The world's largest candy store is huge, and next door is the largest gift shop. Once you open the door, there is every kind of candy I have ever seen. Our group was so excited! After 20 minutes, we left with $36.00 worth of sugar! The best part of this store is the restrooms. They have the cleanest bathrooms! Trust me! This was a fun place to stop, and we talked about it on the rest of our road trip.

Adorable candy and chocolate shop in the middle of nowhere at a gas station. They've got a great selection and their homemade milk chocolate is to die for. They have everything from chocolate covered Oreos, Twinkie's and marshmallows; to tons of varieties fudge, malt balls and all the nuts. There are barrels of old timey candy and countless sodas on the wall. Def a must stop.

Nice place to stop for gas and a break when traveling. The bathrooms are clean and the employees are happy! There are plenty of snacks to find here. Bulk and pre packaged candy. A large selection of candies!! Definitely something for everyone!! They also have a large car of different flavored popcorn and also fresh popped popcorn. Plenty of drink selections from fountain soda, bottled sodas, water etc.

Its a bit of false advertising. I wouldn't say this is the world's largest but it's big and a happy stop on the way through Missouri. This store featured both homemade and prepackaged candies of a wide variety. I'm a fudge snob. I spent at least some of my time in the summers up north in Michigan and on Mackinac Island. That fudge is second to none. This fudge was okayish. I was not tempted a bit. They had great looking turtles though that were hard to resist and lots of filled chocolates that were much tastier. They have so much salt water taffy! My teeth cannot handle it but if it's your thing you will find every flavor you could hope to get. They also make popcorn in all the assorted seasonings. The caramel was delish. They had jawbreakers all the way up to the size of your head. How anyone ever gets one in their mouth is beyond me My fave part was seeing the old candies I miss. Candy cigarettes, Pixy Stix, Big League chew, Spree, Razzles and rock candy! I stocked up like a seven year old and threw in some all buttered popcorn flavored jellybeans for good measure. I had fun and we had snacks for the rest of the way home. My husband gives a shout out for the maple peanuts and the chocolate peanut butter pretzels. I will for the amazing rock candy in all the colors of the rainbow.

This sweet review may come in candy if you're traveling through. :) My secret sweet tooth was revealed with all the sugary snack options made available in this sweet stop along our way. There's so much to choose with a range from classic to creative snacks!! We tasted and bought from the fudge case, picked quite a few things from the candy case, selected a couple bags of popcorns, found some tubs of classic favorites, and even picked out four sodas to try out. We bought salty caramel, tiger butter, rocky road, and cheesecake caramel pecan, all good and listed in order of most liked first. The hyped chocolate covered Twinkie was worth a try but not outstanding, it was drier than I expected. The favorite candies were the oh so buttery yet crisp toffees and the creamy buckeyes. The s'mores were also worth trying but also a little dry. The bacon cheddar popcorn was not the best with a very imitation bacon flavor. The Memphis mix popcorn (PB & banana) was my favorite, comparable to a caramel popcorn with nuts but with the banana taste. The malted chocolate balls and chocolate covered raisins were fresh tasting and both tubs quickly enjoyed. The sodas were fun for my crew but I still haven't yet drank mine. The workers were so very helpful and pleasant in light of the extremely busy environment. They were helpful in providing tastings of different items. The lines of customers moved along quickly and it didn't take long to checkout. The store is brightly decorated, neatly stocked, well lit, has wide aisles, and there's some open viewing through glass walls of factory type settings. The very nice and clean restrooms they offer were also amazing for our long trip. Even though it was a very busy store I still found it was comfortable and was a fun worthwhile stop during our trip.

We recently went on a road trip from Tulsa to Chicago. We ended up stopping here simply to use the bathroom. We were actually prepared for the worst due to bad experiences with gas station and restaurants along the way. When I walked into the bathroom here... I felt like I'd just walked through the gates of heaven. I feel like I actually heard angels singing. Y'all these bathrooms were BEAUTIFUL! I felt like I was in a luxury hotel, not a candy store....which, by the way, the candy store is awesome but we'll talk about that later. Anyway...this bathroom, y'all. This bathroom was immaculate. It was beautifully decorated. There were chandeliers, y'all. CHANDELIERS! The decor was a dream. The color scheme, the backsplash... Man.... it was the perfect bathroom experience. When I met my family at the car... EVERYBODY WAS TALKING ABOUT THE BATHROOM! Apparently, the men's bathroom was great too. Oh, and I bought some toffee. Yes, I know it's a fudge factory but I'm a rebel! The toffee was delicious and the women who worked there were extremely nice. But those bathrooms... we are currently headed back to Tulsa and we are all holding our pee until we get to the fudge factory.

It's obviously a very popular place, as I watched trucks, cars, and RVs continuously coming in. I had never heard of this place but one in our group had. The gift shop was full of a plethora of mostly made in China knick-knacks (I found a few made in the USA things). There are some awesome bird feeders and tree decor items that I'd not seen before. The drawback was that it was so hot in there. Please cool it off! On to the candy store...It is wall-to-wall, ceiling-to-floor GOODIES of every kind. Huge baskets full of just about any kind of candy. I zeroed in on chocolate caramels. A cooler filled with different flavors of bottled pop. I found a Bubble Up there! Then, on to the 20 or so different flavors of salt water taffies. Either bag it by the pound, or use the separator plastic trays to keep each flavor separate. The egg nog flavor is spot on! There's pre-packaged chocolates of every variety. I bought a package of dark chocolate-covered pretzels and they're delicious. It was a very crowded, but sweet visit. Maybe they can ship me more of those egg nog-flavored taffies!

Everything was decently priced and they have a good selection of candy as well as sodas, fudges, chocolates, popcorn, merchandise, and other various delicacies that look good at a first glance. The only thing that pretty much ruined this review and the experience for me was the abundance of flies, specifically near the fudge and chocolates. I wouldn't be surprised if there were maggots embedded into the chocolates at this point since there was so many flies in the case at this point. It was a nauseating amount and no one seemed to notice as well, other customers and employees alike. If you ever stop here, do not get any fudge or chocolates until they either consider a closed case and more attention to their fly infestation. It's gross.

We love this stop! The gift shop is great to stretch your legs and the Candy Factory is amazing! English Toffee, Amaretto Fudge and Yogurt Peanuts are my absolute favorite!!! Bathrooms are so clean and big as well! Best stop between STL and Branson!

Almost any kind of penny candy you could want, plus fudge! Can't miss the signs along the highway.

I just got back from a trip to NYC. On my way home to another town in MO. And I was so impressed and relieved (no pun intended) by the bathrooms I had to write a review. Its like a beautiful mansion in here. I could move in. The past week in New York had me growing accustomed to seatless toilets and mystery stains. No hovering here! Also the candy has a ton of variety for great prices!
