Uncle Tom's Candy Store — Local services in Town of Liberty Grove

We didn't go to the candy store, but we did buy Uncle Tom's Dark Cherry candy at a coffee shop in northern Wisconsin while on vacation. I sent an email and left a voicemail sharing our disappointment with the candy, which tasted like it was made from cheap waxy chocolate wafers, with what seemed like shavings from less than one cherry. It truly was horrible. We would have gone back to ask for a refund but we had already left the city when we tried it. I thought contacting them would give them a chance to make it right -- but that can't happen when no one can take the time to respond. So, alas, I have taken to posting about it. If you see this candy or shop, pass it up. Or contact me and you can have what's left of our overpriced candy (which we wouldn't consider overpriced if it was quality chocolate that actually contained cherries). --- followup to owner's answer: Therapeutic?

There is nothing more satisfying than walking into a genuine American candy store. I have known this place since I was fresh out of the womb. Milk chocolate and white chocolate buttons are a classic staple in our family. Also, You can’t leave there without the peanut brittle.

You can’t miss this place off the beaten path on the way to the top of the thumb.

Finally, I have to give a nod to the experimentation with the new chocolates. The men’s chocolate Oreo bark is so creamy and more of my all-time favorites the dark...

Get the peanut brittle. Go out of your way to get it.

Edit: 7-26 While the candies are still good and some are hit and miss, I think the new owners would benefit to understand why the people come here. It's tradition. If you remove the tradition you'll have customers that won't come back. These are people who are bringing their kids up to show them what they had the many years before. I understand that changes are always a good thing, but when your operating a place with such a long standing history, the changes should come as gradual as time does. The cherry walnut brittle was a miss as the cherries get to gummy and sticky. However, the frosted lemonade was very good. I would like to recommend sprinkling some True Lemon crystallized lemon over the top of a batch while it's cooling. I believe this would really take it to a new...
