‘Hidden Gem’ - Noun. Something possessing a value or beauty that is not immediately apparent, which therefore has received far less recognition than it deserves.

Welcome to a blog series where I help you discover businesses, experiences, food and restaurants you need to know about but may have missed. Join me as I give you all the details you need to experience these hidden gems in Kokomo!


If you know me, you may know I have an insane sweet tooth. I love sweets, treats, and candy — so there’s one store that stands out to me. Olde Thyme Mercantile is located in the Maplecrest Plaza on South Washington Street and is 10,000 square feet of all the candy you can ever imagine!

The Olde Thyme Mercantile not only has more types of candy that you can name, but there’s also old-fashioned glass bottle sodas, snack foods, dips, and so much more! Check out some photos from my recent trip below.
