New Hampshire candy store voted 3rd best in the country
LITTLETON, N.H. - New England is home to one of the very best places in the country to find a sweet treat, according to a new ranking.
USA Today readers voted for their favorite candy stores across America, and Chutters in Littleton, New Hampshire landed at No. 3.
The shop has been on Main Street since the late 1800s and holds the Guinness World Record for longest continuous candy counter at nearly 112 feet.
"It's not a stretch to call Chutters a candy lover's paradise," the newspaper says.
The store has been a popular stop for presidential candidates in the key primary state.
