Columbian Gold

..really love the old wild west era!

Columbia is an old gold mining town. Its history is that of the Wild West. Wooden sidewalks, a stagecoach, and gunslingers can be found throughout town. Gold is why the town boomed and lack of gold is why it went bust. You can still do a little panning in the area.

There is something better than gold in Columbia now. It is more valuable, more important, and much better tasting. Columbia’s current rush is a sugar rush caused by the best candy anywhere.

At Nelson’s Columbia Candy Kitchen, the work is hand done. A crew of lovely ladies in their calico frocks sits at marble tables, hand rolling chocolate. At Christmas, candy canes are lovingly pulled on huge stone tables to cool the sugars.
