Flesor's Candy Renovation
A challenge for the owners, architects, and contractors is the requirement that the new store maintain the original aesthetics and ambience of the original Kandy Kitchen. Amazingly, a majority of the original fixtures were still located in Tuscola and were acquired for re-installation wherever possible. Other items that are no longer available or usable were updated or re-created in detail to maintain historical accuracy.
