Calef's Candyland

Sometimes the smallest adventures are the most fun! Visit Candyland this month before summer fades into busy fall schedules.

Discover All Sorts of Fun at Candyland

Calef’s Candyland is so much more than a room full of your favorite candies and hard to find nostalgic sweets. It’s an adventure into endless choices, a math refresher, a glimpse into budgeting, and the feeling of satisfaction when you bring home the perfect bag.

Discover Endless Choices

There are endless choices with the jars and jars of candy and some fun novelty items! Like Rainbow Twisty Lollipops and Swirls. These lollipops instantly invoke nostalgic happiness. Then turn to face the boxes of chocolate bars, many that you won’t find in the grocery store! Like the nostalgic Charleston Chew, Mallo Cup, Sugar Daddies, Sugar Babies, and more. Many nostalgic candies are even available online. Grab a few to last the rest of the summer!

Nostalgic Treats and Gifts

The nostalgic items are fun and eye catching of course, but what makes Candyland so exciting and such a compelling math and life lesson? Part of the draw, is Calef’s one of the only penny candy stores left! We do not sell candy by the pound. Instead each jar of candy is labeled with 1 cent, 2 cent, 5 cent, etc.

A Lesson in Math and Money

Summer is the perfect time for fun, practical lessons! Give your child a certain amount of money and watch the child add and subtract candy pieces. A real life math puzzle. Careful calculation is needed to see how many of each of their favorite candy can be purchased with the allotted budget. It’s a great opportunity for a math and money lesson. And, the Calef’s crew loves to see kids taking pride in their purchases. For the ultimate surprise, grab a Penny Candy Grab Bag online.

Best of All, Candyland is not just for Kids

Candyland is not just for kids. If you are not tempted by nostalgic candy bars and choose your own penny candy adventures, try our gourmet candies! For many fudge is an iconic, vacation treat. All fudge is hand packed and available in a variety of flavors. Fudge can also be purchased online!

Gourmet candy lovers can also fill a bag of Wilbur’s of Maine candies. Now sold by the pound, choose from chocolate covered blueberries, cherries, cranberries, and lemon cello almonds. All Wilbur’s premium chocolate confections are handcrafted in Maine.

Stop by Candyland online or at the store, we are fully stocked for the remaining summer days ahead!
