Multiple reports from FOX 9 and KARE 11 in Minnesota confirm the exciting news Minnesota's Largest Candy Store is no longer moving. In a previous story, the store was planning to move because the main access to the storefront would be cut off when a new interchange on Highway 169 gets up and running. This gave owner Robert Wagner the excuse to build a bigger location.
Robert Wagner tells FOX 9 and KARE 11 that building a new location is too expensive due to the soil condition on part of a land swap in Scott County. It would have been less than a mile away from the original Minnesota's Largest Candy Store.
"The plan to move the store is beyond on hold. I believe there’s a strong possibility that we will stay here for the rest of time."
The new location for Minnesota's Largest Candy Store would have been opened by the spring of 2027.
