New Candy Store Satisfies Locals’ Sweet Tooth
Newport, RI – Alan and Cynthia Levenson, owners of the new candy shop Sugar High, located in the Home Depot plaza on West Main Road, have been satisfying sweet tooths for 35 years.
“I used to be young,” joked Mr. Levenson when he reflected how long he has been in the candy business.
He said when he first started a shop that offered tubes of candy, self-service was still a new concept. Although it is common to find in stores today, prepackaged sweets and bars were once the only option.
