History

Established in 1974.

Kelly’s Kandy is a family owned and operated business established in 1974 by Thomas and Dale Sheehan. The Couple married in 1964 and ran a traveling concession business that took them to all kinds of events, including The Worlds Fair, The Indianapolis 500, Super Bowl, Mardi Gras, and the Kentucky Derby. The daughter of Vaudeville performers and self proclaimed «Chester Girl,» Dale said the traveling got to be a bit much, especially after giving birth to her daughter, Kelly.

Tom and Dale didn’t want Kelly to grow up on the road, but they didn’t want to start working for anyone else either. The couple decided to launch a candy business at the original Booth’s Corner Farmers Market on Naamans Creek Road in Bethel, and name it after their two daughters Kelly and Kandy.

The Sheehan’s spent five more years at Booth’s Corner after it was rebuilt from the fire that took place in 1973. Kelly’s Kandy relocated to Brookhaven for a few years before purchasing the current store on MacDade Blvd

I said it in 2011, and I say it now: Woohoo — this IS as good as it gets! I’m pretty sure most of their stuff in made in-​house. Their chocolate covered pretzels are my favorite, except at St. Patty’s day and then the Irish Potatos are, and then at Easter — OMG Coconut Cream Dark Chocolate Eggs!!! I’m a dark chocolate freak and they Anyone who loves chocolate will die for it. They have a bin full of broken milk-​chocolate pieces they sell cheap. I don’t even want to try their fudge. I looks too good. This is a big store (for a candy store) and they have lots of gift items and balloons too. I highly recommend this place. Not center city prices, but center city quality (and more!)

We recently went joy-​riding through the treasures of Philly burbs, and popped a U-​y to stop in at this candy delight.
Have you ever seen Pippi Longstocking? There’s a scene where she take a handful of gold to a BonBon shop and all the kids in the town get all the candy they want, walking out with armfuls of licorice strings, lollipops, cotton candy, jellybeans…
This is how I felt that day.
Now, I’ve been to my fair of confectioners, and this day I was looking for candy to stock up for an upcoming candy party. Kelly’s Kandy had a very special feeling to it… it didn’t have EVERYTHING, but what it has is fresh, unique, and inexpensive. I LOVE their Valentine’s options right now, from small boxes of specialty chocolates, to mounds of festive bulk ju ju hearts, red hots, etc. Fudge runs only $ 8 /​pound, which I haven’t seen anywhere in years!
Some special assets to Kelly’s Kandy would be the molded chocolates… theres a wall of adorable novelties (such as Snow White and Spiderman) for 1.50 — 3.00, and you can custom order special designs. She also has FABULOUS 3D heels! Like those fancy ones people collect as knick knacks, but made of chocolate and decorated with ribbons and rock candy. It was a shoe-​in for a Valentine I have in mind ;)
This would be a great place for wedding favors, as they have pearled carton-​fillers for $ 8 /​pound, and truffles galore. I also really loved a bin of shoestring licorice that looked homemade — in a good way.
I spent an awesome $ 37 dollars that day and left like Willy Wonka… and some wonderful swirl lollipops will be my featurette at my party:)

Kelly’s is a great old school candy shop. I come here only about twice a year; Easter and Christmas goodies! My favorites are the jelly beans, which I could easily house an entire bag of, and those yummy little gummy fruit slices. Remember them? The ones covered in sugar? Yummmm! They even have chocolate covered bacon.

A great shop that’s been around for years. Kelly’s has a good selection of home made candies and fudge, as well as candy in bulk. They even have some fresh roasted nuts too. It’s not a big store, but it has that old fashioned feel, and smell, to it.
My favorite, by far, is their chocolate covered pretzels. The pretzels are of the thin type, nice and salty, with a good coating of chocolate. They sell them by the pound, but I like to buy the 2lb bags of broken or pieces. It’s the same price as the pound, but 2x as much.
