Bullfrog Corner in Southport, North Carolina, brings out the kid in all of us — it creates that much fun. This magical place was cut straight from the pages of a fairytale, offering loads of classic toys, stuffed animals, and, of course, candy! You'll find everything displayed in the most lavish way from floor to ceiling. In the age of big-box stores, this charming shop is a welcome distraction. Not to mention the finds of retro candy, which are a welcome treat and conversation piece for the older folks. Whether you accidentally find it off of an exit or intentionally make plans to go, let's take a look at why this old-fashioned sugary boutique is considered one of the best candy stores in North Carolina.
Before you even walk into this fun store, you know Bullfrog Corner is someplace special.
A lot of thought has gone into decorating this lovely space from top to bottom.
Just look at all the bright colors just waiting to greet you.
And as if candy isn't attractive enough, look at the effort in this cheerful display.
Some familiar names will pop out of the barrels, such as Bit-O-Honey and Tootsie Roll.
But look out for new, locally crafted treats too.
And while you're there, be sure to do some gift shopping.
For a small store, it will certainly take a while to see all of the offerings. You'll probably want to set aside at least an hour to see each and every brightly colored section.
Even the room for adults is a party in disguise.
But, of course, a candy store is nothing without the sugar and this place has plenty of it!
