One common holiday practice among many of us is the New Year’s Resolution to lose all of the weight we have gained over the holidays.

Let’s face it, there is just too much good food to pass up on, especially the sweets.

Traditions like eggnog and chocolate fudge are just a couple of examples of the standard fare reserved for this time of year. That rich sweetness that helps keep us warm in the cold months by adding a few extra pounds.

If you are in Destin this holiday season and you have a sweet tooth that needs some satisfaction, you will definitely want to pay a visit to The Candymaker Candy Store. They are moments from our motel, on Scenic Highway 98 in Destin Florida. Just East of the Back Porch Restaurant.

This 7000 sq. ft. candy store is the largest of three locations (also in The Village of Baytowne Wharf and Pier Point in Panama City Beach) and they have a lot of goodies.

Taffy, fudge, chocolates, licorice, truffles, jelly beans… if it’s sweet, The Candymaker makes it.

The Candymaker also has a self serve frozen yogurt line, a gift shop and a Italian coffee and espresso shop and they serve a full country breakfast daily from 7 to 11 am. The weather this time of year is great for having breakfast on their bikini deck for a great gulf view.

Be sure and visit them online and see for yourself all of the sweet reasons to get down here to Destin for a winter vacation.

You can stay with us right on the beach at Sea Oats Motel.
