Little Sweets Spot, 315 N. Jefferson Street, held their official Huntington County Chamber of Commerce ribbon cutting on Wednesday, March 27. The store in downtown Huntington has reopened under new ownership and management. The business is now owned by Ashton and Betty Pinkerton where they assumed ownership of the store on January 1, 2024.

The owners are planning many changes to the store including freeze-dried candies, indulgent chocolates, exotic international candies and a special selection of unique sodas. There is now something for everyone. Little Sweets Spot is Huntington’s only self-serve confectionery destination with over 500 varieties of candy.

The store will hold a Grand Re-opening on Saturday, March 30, just in time to purchase your Easter candy. Be sure to drop by the new store and get your Easter candy before it’s too late. Ella’s Catering & Food Truck will be on hand to provide some great food for those interested in lunch or dinner.

The Pinkertons say they will increase their store hours and will be open after the Grand Re-opening on Monday, 12 to 7 p.m.; Tuesday, 12 to 6 p.m.; Wednesday, 12 to 5 p.m.; Thursday, 12 to 7 p.m.; Friday, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Saturday, 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.; closed Sundays.
