Though Kelly Sigg has owned Elm Street mainstay Pennyweights with husband Geoff for 14 years, it wasn’t until three months ago that a business arrived in town to capture both her heart and sweet tooth. “I love the salted caramel at The Candy Scoop,” Sigg told NewCanaanite.com when asked about her local favorites for “Biz on Biz.” “The mixture of the salt with the sweetness, it’s delicious,” she said. Sigg isn’t alone in that opinion. Megan Palladino, a 2009 New Canaan High School graduate and town resident who owns The Candy Scoop with big sister Lauren, said the shop’s “Lake Champlain Sea Salt Caramels” became so popular so quickly that they sold out.
