WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) — Two Kansas candy stores have been ranked in the top 5 in the United States.

In May, USA Today announced that The Farris Wheel Candy Co. in Wichita and the Sweet Granada in Emporia had been selected to compete in their 10Best Candy Stores in the United States.

Describing The Farris Wheel, USA Today calls the family-owned gourmet candy store an “easy place to satisfy your sweet tooth.” The store offers a wide selection of treats, from fine chocolates and fancy candies to gummies and trail mixes.

The Sweet Granada, which also recently opened a second location in Kansas City, Missouri, offers a variety of treats, such as truffles, fudge, macaroons, and their dog-safe white-chocolate-dipped dog biscuits. However, they are best known for their Pop-Choc, which is buttery popcorn mixed with white and milk chocolate.

For the contest, USA Today consulted a panel of experts. They then selected 20 candy stores and asked readers to vote for their favorite.

The contest ran through June 10 with winners announced this week. Wichita’s Farris Wheel Candy Co. placed No. 5, while Sweet Granada took the No. 2 slot.
