There is one nearby. It's not "real" old, just in the style of.

There are a few of these old fashioned sweet shops dotted around the area and whilst some things are passable others look the same as they did 50 years ago but don’t taste exactly as they should / did … I guess it’s impossible to replicate everything exactly… so long afterwards

I thought the thread title said "do you have an old fashioned sweat shop" for a second.:laugh:

Apologies for the misreading, Kate.

I don't think that I have a sweet shop in my Town, but my Town has only just discovered Korean food so it's not the most cultured when it comes to food/snacks.:joker:
