Camilo Mora and Mariana Buitrago are cornering the market on sweet treats in Sackville’s downtown. The couple opened a specialty candy store called Sweet Yummyland, just over a week ago. The couple are also moving their ice cream business, The Ice cream Coop, into the downtown core next month.
“I think it …generates a bit of foot traffic for the town, right with people coming in to enjoy ice cream, and then they can visit some of the stores around town as well without having to walk as much,” said Mora.
CHMA News talked to a group of kids who were gathered outside the store eating sweets. Asked why the store is a nice new addition to the downtown, one said, “It’s a nice bike ride and a really nice day.”
