One of the neatest aspects of this Tennessee candy shop is their low profile and solid heart for what they do. The Ratliff family serves folks of all ages, and even provided the Carter administration holiday decor for the White House. It's pretty amazing, what this tiny shop can do — and all while staying grounded in family and heart, right here in the south.
