Lammes Candies, a sweet staple in Austin since the 1800s, is closing its doors.
www.fox7austin.comLammes Candies is closing all of its retail locations in Texas after 141 years, with Austin and Round Rock stores shuttering and online sales continuing for a while. The closures were attributed to changing market conditions and concerns about long-term sustainability.[1][2][3]
Key details:
- Round Rock store closed April 24, and the Airport Boulevard (Austin) location is slated to close soon after.[3][1]
- The brand is famous for Texas Chewy Pecan Pralines and Longhorns candies, with operations centered in Austin.[1][3]
- Some coverage notes that Lammes Candies will wind down with an orderly process, including fulfilling remaining orders and assisting employees.[2]
What this means for you in Dallas:
- Lammes products are commonly available in Dallas-area retailers like Spec’s, Walmart, and Central Market, so you may still find Texas Chewy pralines there for now.[1]
- If you’re seeking Lammes’ specific cadences or gifts, consider purchasing before inventory runs out at local shops or via their online store while it remains active.[2]
