Cero's Candies in the Old Town section of Wichita, Kansas was started by Pete Cero in 1885, and was still operated by the Cero family until just 1999. When we first visited Cero's Candies in 2008, it was operated by The Mental Health Association of South Central Kansas. On November 4, 2010, Cerio's returned to private ownership. When I revited Cerp's in 2011, the only thing that had changed was the prices had gone up 20%. Cero's caramels and chocolates may be their best products. They run $24/pound. Other popular candies include peanut brittle, cherry cordials, chocolate popcorn and peanut clusters. The staff at Cero's Candies are friendly and offer the chance to taste candies as you make selections. Some of Cero's candies may be purchased online.
