STARKVILLE, Miss.(WCBI)–There is a place in Starkville where even an adult can feel like a kid in a candy store.

Tucked away just off Main Street in downtown Starkville, a place reminiscent of a chocolate factory from pages of a storybook. A place where goodies are appealing to the taste buds as well as the eyes.

“Its where to get your sweet tooth filled It is probably the sweetest place in town,” said Cullen Richardson/Holli’s Sweet Tooth.

Not many will argue the fact that a search elsewhere, one would come up short and wanting for more delicious treats to include chocolate strawberries.

“There is no other candy store that offers the variety that we have in town or in the region,” said Cullen Richardson.

Since 2006, people have been sampling these dainty sugary delights, having all the color of the rainbow.

“And Sugaree’s bakery items that are from New Albany. We also have ice cream that is from Alabama and we make our own milk shakes and sundaes. And we have M&M’S and jellybeans; and the way our store works is we do it all by weight,” said Cullen Richardson.

Individual pricing means a few pieces are indeed affordable, however,a hershey bar big enough to make Willy Wonka jealous, is over $50.

“Honestly what happens is, a lot of people come in almost dumb founded, even adults. I mean kids, you’ll see them running around screaming and going crazy. But its just that nostalgia of being a child again, anyone that comes in here,” said Cullen Richardson.

Custom made candy bags, chocolate covered strawberries, cakes and pies…..a sweet place indeed.
