It has been a dream start to life for a new candy store.

Griff's Sweet Emporium is up and running at Glebe Farm in Astbury.

Behind the till you will find 21-year-old Macclesfield resident, Elise Griffith, who is over the moon with the reception she has had thus far.

She said: "The first few days have gone well, really well!

"Everyone becomes a kid in a sweet shop when entering.

"We are very excited to start this adventure on this lovely farm in this community!"

Elise's father runs Camping HQ, also based at Glebe Farm.

"When a spot became available we knew a sweet shop would be perfect," she added.

Griff's Sweet Emporium offers a wide range of sweets and fudge, including classics like cherry lips and kopp kops as well as newer options, such as Millions and Toxic Waste.
