Sweet Stuff Candy

Description

Welcome to Sweet Stuff Candy in Cross Plains, Texas. Why we are here only the Lord knows for sure. My husband was born and raised in Paulding, Ohio, where we met in 1968, married in 1969, raised three children, and lived there until he retired in 1998. That’s when we sold it all, bought a truck with a thirty foot RV, and sang our favorite song, "On The Road Again". We loved the Texas winters in the valley till 2002, visited Rockport along the Gulf of Texas and felt like settling down again. It only lasted two years because the humidity really got to us. One day Dennis (my husband) was reading a Texas real estate book, and amongst all the cattle and hunting ranches for sale was an ad for a candy shop. We laughed about that and two weeks later we visited the little town of Cross Plains with a population of less than two thousand.

What made us buy the business: We needed a challenge in life. We were not ready for the rocking chair. We wanted to be our own bosses, work our own hours, have Sundays off. We did have experience in running a business, however, we never made candy.

Sweet Stuff Candy was created by Yvonne Peevy in 1986 and opened up in the current location in 1997. She always loved to make candy but personal things were changing in her life and her family encouraged her to sell. She told us she had other offers on the place, but would not sell to someone who would move the business out of town. All the candy was made from scratch. She agreed to teach us for three months, if we didn’t learn by then we never would.
