Cousins Candy Shop truly goes above and beyond in customer service! Not only do they take immense pride in their products, but they also ensure that every order is handled with care. When a small mix-up happened with my online order, Lisa, the new owner quickly corrected it and even sent me, the sender, a thoughtful courtesy gift as a thank-you for my patience. That level of dedication and generosity is rare these days, and it speaks volumes about their commitment to customer satisfaction. The quality of their treats is amazing. I’ll be a returning customer. Highly recommend!

How can you not give a candy store 5 stars. Well I guess if they were out of candy. This location has a good mix of items for that sweet tooth craving you get when traveling. The selection of items has some southwest inspired chocolates with jalapeño and cactus in them. All the other options were standard tourist candy store affairs of taffy and chocolates.
