Why Is It Better To Go Local Than Order Online?

For most of the year, ordering candy that is chocolate or gummy is done at your own peril, as it frequently gets too hot during shipping and arrives melted or misshapen. For chocolate, this can destroy its structure, causing it to get floppy or crystallized- yuck! Getting it locally means it was shipped commercially and with care, so you are getting the best version of the product.

Additionally, local places buy wholesale, meaning they can pass those savings on to you. It usually won't save you any cash (especially after shipping) to order imported candies and treats online. Buying locally allows you to really see the product before deciding- sizes can be especially deceiving online.

Additionally, you get to know that your money stays local, benefitting our Lubbock economy. It's a win-win!

Congrats on your expansion, Candy Girl! We love to see your success.
