Ole Smoky Candy Kitchen in Gatlinburg, TN

Area Info : Eat : Bakeries : Ole Smoky Candy Kitchen

When is the last time you saw taffy, fudge, and other delicious goodies churned in large, old-fashioned candy machines? While it's nearly impossible to find classic fresh candy, you can't miss the delicious smells wafting from the Ole Smoky Candy Kitchen when you stroll through downtown. No trip to Gatlinburg is complete without stopping by this candy kitchen to see these treats being made for you!

This Gatlinburg institution dates back to 1950 when a young couple settled in Gatlinburg to make their fortune with delicious candy. They loved showing visitors how their candy was made, so they brought the old-fashioned candy machines out front so that everyone could admire these unique machines at work.

Famously, a bear once broke into the Ole Smoky Candy Kitchen and began munching on delicious fudge, taffy, and caramel apples. The determined bear, later estimated to be around 200 pounds, broke through a glass door and chowed down before workers arrived for their early morning shift. After satisfying his sweet tooth, the bear was chased away by local law enforcement.
