Curly Girl Candy Shop

About

Curly Girl Candy Shop is a candy store in downtown Salem built around creating best-day-ever experiences for kids and adults. Shoppers fill bags from more than 120 bulk candy options, from gummies and sours to chocolates, plus a large jellybean selection, bubblegum, lollipops, chocolate bars, and novelty sweets. Plenty of nostalgic candy brings adults back to their childhoods, and the shop also sells candy gifts.

Owner Marnie, a Salem resident and the curly girl behind the name, spent two years turning the idea into a store before opening in September 2021. She says she loves seeing the joy on kids’ faces and the excitement of adults who spot something from their childhood. Through its Sweet Support program, the shop raises money for a different local nonprofit every month. The website adds coloring sheets, candy facts, and games for young fans.
