A new business is set to open its doors to customers at the start of December in North Yorkshire - bringing a sweet sensation to locals and tourists.
The Sweet Stop, will join The Station’s strong line-up of artisan food and drink businesses in Richmond when it opens next week.
Offering a modern take on a traditional sweet shop experience, The Sweet Stop has been tastefully refurbished to suit its home in the former Victorian railway station.
Offering affordable treats for all ages, visitors can enjoy a trip down memory lane with bags of sweets served in traditional quarters or ‘quarts’, as well as bars of chocolate and truffles.
Business manager Emma Bottomley said, “We are looking forward to welcoming visitors to The Sweet Stop at our official opening on Tuesday, December 5.
"We’ve got lots of fabulous festive treats in store, as well as jars full to the brim with all types of sweets, including dolly mixtures, mint imperials, rhubarb and custard, teacakes, bonbons, and lots of liquorice.
"Everyone we’ve spoken to in the run-up to opening has talked fondly of favourite childhood sweets, and we’ve got a great selection of pick and mix here at The Sweet Stop - if there’s something you’d like to see, that isn’t already on our shelves, just let us know!”
The Sweet Stop will open at 10am on Tuesday, December 5, and will be open Tuesday – Sunday, 10am – 4pm in the run up to Christmas.
