Introduced in the 1920s, these round yummy cakes have three layers: a Genoise sponge base, a slathering of orange jam, and coated in creamy chocolate.

And while a variety of specialty sodas are available, we love the bold and spicy GOYA Jamaican Style-Ginger Beer, which contains no alcohol.

The Enormous Depot At Gibson Mill In North Carolina Will Bump Your Thrifting Game To 11

Published Aug 14, 2024

Once a textile manufacturing company, The Depot at Gibson Mill is now an enormous thrifting destination in North Carolina. Gibson Manufacturing Company was established in 1899 and the factory became Cannon Mills' Plant No. 6 in 1928 with 31,396 spindles used for spinning fibers into colored yarns, fabrics, clothing, and other items. The joy here is the bones of the building — bricks and hardwood are just as inspiring to look at as the inventory. And with more than 600 individual dealers, that is saying a lot. See why The Depot draws such a crowd in Concord, NC.

The Depot has become one of the largest antique malls in the Southeast with more than 750 vendor booths.
