Do you ever pine for the candy from your childhood?  I know I do.  I love reliving being a kid through the old fashioned candies.  When I just can’t live without wax lips or butterscotch candies I head up Rte. 1 to Wilbur’s Candies.  Wilbur’s is a great little candy store that also makes its own chocolates.  The chocolate case is irresistible - I personally, can’t say no to a dark chocolate pecan turtle, I don’t know about you.  The rest of the store is like a step back in time with two glass cases filled with old fashioned candies, including wax lips, dots, necco wafers, baked beans, lemonheads, etc.  They also have two basket areas filled with candy from many decades.  I love the giant old fashioned candy canes they carry during the Christmas months.  Every major candy holiday I head up to Wilbur’s to put together a basket of goodies for my nieces and nephews.  If you just want a chance to reminisce this is a great place to visit.  You can check them out on the web at http://wilburs.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc.  They only carry their chocolates online.  If you are still pining for the old fashioned candy you love, but can’t find it, then try Candy Crate - http://candy-crate.stores.yahoo.net/.  I bought my husband a 1980s gift basket from Candy Crate and he just loved it!
