Got a sweet tooth? It’s your lucky day!

Candy lovers can rejoice with the opening of the new Shelby’s Sugar Shop in Polaris Fashion Place Mall.

It’s exactly what you would think — wall to wall candy, and lots of it.

According to Wikipedia, candy has its origins mainly in Ancient India. Simple sugar or sucrose is turned into candy by dissolving it in water, concentrating this solution through cooking and allowing the mass either to form a mutable solid or to recrystallize.

Other sugars, sugar substitutes, and corn syrup are also used. Jelly candies, such as gumdrops and gummies, use stabilizers including starch, pectin or gelatin.

The new store near Center Court in the Mall features life-size figurines of “Shelby,” the store’s mascot, and her dog. Illustrations, animated displays, and more feature inside. It opened in late January.

The store is the third Shelby’s Sugar Shop in Ohio, and the chain also has locations in Florida, Colorado, and New Mexico. It is owned by Washington Prime Group, which also owns Polaris Fashion Place.

You can visit the chain’s website here.
