SWAC Husband picked up a small package of cinnamon candy at Explore Park outside Roanoke and discovered it had been made in Virginia at Meadows of Dan. We were heading south on the Parkway so decided to look it up.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhy5_M-kxgSdWAd7xmZCRvwQhOTqeviaWLiiDP5jSUwIQcSZIHBKrK29u16-fMm5aBYq9-JIwoYuprBET2GfdM1DNgPKh-ZR1aohyjR7uK_SLHMpxv6YA9SzbyL5Jscy27eoiK_YNhI_kEV/s1600/33.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhy5_M-kxgSdWAd7xmZCRvwQhOTqeviaWLiiDP5jSUwIQcSZIHBKrK29u16-fMm5aBYq9-JIwoYuprBET2GfdM1DNgPKh-ZR1aohyjR7uK_SLHMpxv6YA9SzbyL5Jscy27eoiK_YNhI_kEV/s640/33.jpg" width="414" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Within a mile of the Parkway at Meadows of Dan, there it was -- Nancy's Candy Company -- all decorated for Halloween.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1Tkhk-8dpojFvUjXbAeIbWxYtiZqMKKfVTS4QGCI2yTTt5UM9W9gVkye6eSDf-FL6HufhcdNR02lqM9PNu48B_N4-NRXhftOibTjFB9CP8ueeI7HYUuxiJovwE2vQ9-wKHW2f_EoFBFJA/s1600/41.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1Tkhk-8dpojFvUjXbAeIbWxYtiZqMKKfVTS4QGCI2yTTt5UM9W9gVkye6eSDf-FL6HufhcdNR02lqM9PNu48B_N4-NRXhftOibTjFB9CP8ueeI7HYUuxiJovwE2vQ9-wKHW2f_EoFBFJA/s400/41.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">It all started with this little package of cinnamon candies.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQFNPoE9RJgNR7aR-oQznGt6HE6_hBI8viHFDCMe_ug6fB6y0cp-8L71Ds_INulqBShvYY0jti54cXDIkX88rU-bUmS0m9tJW7H01A4JFy5dE_p0DS3SWEIZ510-yuYiTs5K9jVAjCzrz0/s1600/34.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="327" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQFNPoE9RJgNR7aR-oQznGt6HE6_hBI8viHFDCMe_ug6fB6y0cp-8L71Ds_INulqBShvYY0jti54cXDIkX88rU-bUmS0m9tJW7H01A4JFy5dE_p0DS3SWEIZ510-yuYiTs5K9jVAjCzrz0/s400/34.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Nancy's makes some candies and packages some bulk products.

This is the home of my Candy Factory. With the help of caring neighbors, we make the greatest tasting fudge, chocolates and truffles.<br /><br />Using the finest chocolate, fresh cream and butter and a little extra patience, I developed my original recipe for creamy fudge, decadent truffles, homestyle chocolates and lots more. Folks say our candy is the best they’ve ever had. <br /><br />Come visit us and shop our three candy stores – you’ve never seen so many luscious chocolates, mouth- watering fudges, artisan truffles and handmade candies. And at factory prices!</blockquote>If you're near Meadows of Dan or Mabry Mill or that part of Virginia, stop by and visit with the folks at Nancy's.<br /><br /><i>Photos by Lynn R.
