The Candy Kid

The Candy Kid The Candy Kid has closed its doors for good. Thank you to all our wonderful and loyal customers. So thanks in advance for your business!

Choose from a large selection of amazing candy: saltwater taffy, licorice from Spain, the Netherlands and Australia, hand made fudge, jawbreakers, cola balls and numerous unique candies- chicken bones, wax bottles and lips, and Lego candy. This is also lollipop heaven-we offer all shapes, sizes and colors! We love helping you find that perfect candy for your special occasion. We love to supply bul

k candy for buffets at weddings, fundraisers and charitable events. We have had wedding photos taken amongst the candy in our store and had a children's birthday party where the guests ran around filling up their own goodie bags. The most fun the children (and we) had was watching the children adding up their candy along the way and trying to stay on budget. The Candy Kid started at the Calgary Farmers Market in Currie Barracks in 2004. It became a staple of the market and had many loyal followers who came in looking for their fix of licorice or fudge. The original owner, Ian Ferguson is now in his first year of medical school at the University of British Columbia and his mom Heather is now managing the store and using some of the proceeds to put her son through school. It truly takes a community to raise a child and we appreciate your contribution!

Hello friends, I finished figuring out the layout for the new Kensington Indoor Festival Market and managed to reduce the lease cost substantially!! Lease rates now range from $371 to $1200 per month!! Costs include utilities, wifi, and storage. Check the layout and please share with your friends so I can get the word out. Having an indoor Festival Market in Kensington would be terrific! We're hoping to open November 1 and need help finding vendors on such short notice. Thanks in advance.

Hello Friends! I'm reconfiguring my store at 225 10th Street NW in Calgary and turning it into a Kensington Indoor Festival Market. (like a mini Farmer's Market)
Hoping to open November 1 pending approvals and vendors who want to join. Space is limited, cost is being finalized and will be very affordable, so if you know someone who might be interested in selling their wares in a market atmosphere over Christmas (and possibly longer), have them call me! 403.804.4311 Heather Ferguson
