The top 20 semifinalists were selected by a panel of experts who looked for candy shops that stand out for offering a variety of delicious treats you can’t always find in big chains of supermarkets.
They also were selected for their ability to offer new flavors, support local businesses and provide a fun, nostalgic experience.
