Newton Candy Store is a Cornucopia of Colors and Confections
Newton, NJ – Maria-Victoria Gicala recently opened Maria’s Sweets & Candy Shoppe on Spring Street, in Newton.
“I was looking to open some sort of business and candy is happy and cheerful,” she said.
Getting started
After thoroughly researching similar shops, types of inventory and locations of such stores in the area, she decided on Newton because, “Spring Street reminds me of what it was like 50 years ago with little shops specializing in different things. There was no candy store there, and with the theater in town, it just seemed like a great location.”
