New Victoria Candy Store Offers Sweet Escape

Victoria, TX – Just off East Rio Grande Street, in a brick building flanked by wooden rainbow lollipops, sits a bit of Candy Land in Victoria.

Sweetie’s Candy Shop and More officially opened Aug. 21 at 1501 E. Red River St., Suite D, giving Crossroads residents a lifeline to all things sugar.
