A confectionery store (more commonly referred to as a sweet shop in the United Kingdom, a candy store in North America, or a lolly shop in Australia) sells confectionery and is usually targeted to children. Most confectionery stores are filled with an assortment of sweets far larger than a grocer or convenience store could accommodate. They often offer a selection of old-fashioned treats and sweets from different countries. Very often unchanged in layout since their inception, confectioneries are known for their warming and nostalgic feel.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://www.fanniemay.com/chocolatepassion/history.asp )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://www.ornescandystore.com/our-history/ )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://www.candyxpress.com/index.asp?PageAction=Custom&ID=42 )〕 The village of Pateley Bridge claims to have the oldest confectionery store in England. == History == Haci Bekir Efendi, confectioner which was established in 1777 in Istanbul is one of the oldest trademarks in the world.
