Anyone know where to find stick candy?

[bigmama67]

Specifically butterscotch...we are planning to make butterbeer and the recipe suggests putting in a butterscotch stick for garnish...DS is a purist and so I'm on the lookout! I was surprised my local confectionary/ice cream place didn't have it...but they didn't really seem to know what I was talking about either, so I'm thinking of going over to have a look. CVS has all kinds of candy but I struck out there...likewise the grocery store. Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks!

Cracker Barrel or Mast General Store. Mast General may do mail orders.

That was what I was going to say. We have one a few blocks away, if you need me to look for them/pick them up, let me know.

Forget the candy. I want to know more about this butterbeer. What is it and how do you make it or can you buy it? Let's see.....I love beer; I love butterscotch; I love drinking. Too funny this should come up. I don't drink liquor normally, but I actually went into store the other day and asked for butterscotch schnapps (sp?). They didn't know what I was talking about, but it sure did bring back fond memories. Yes I believe I need to know more.

Bumping in hopes bigmama will be so kind as to share her recipe.

My suggestion was Cracker Barrel as well. You must buy them at the store. I checked, and they CANNOT be ordered online. :-(

Butterbeer is a non-alcoholic drink from the Harry Potter books. You can buy it at the Harry Potter land at Universal. I was told by my niece it is very much like a cream soda with a hint butterscotch. You can find unofficial recipes by doing an internet search.
