Another “Sweet” Day at Dolles Candyland in Rehoboth Beach <\/em><\/p>\n

While vacationing or enjoying the mile long boardwalk in Rehoboth beach, you can\u2019t help but notice the landmark Dolles sign atop the building at the corner of Rehoboth Avenue and the boardwalk. \u00a0Dolles Candyland was established in 1926 and moved to its current location in 1927 when the co-founders, Thomas Pachides and Rudolph Dolle purchased the old YMCA building.<\/h4>\n

Despite the Great Depression and the Second World War, Dolles kept their doors open offering\u00a0 a \u201csweet\u201d respite during those difficult times. However in 1962, Dolles succumbed to the \u201cGreat Storm\u201d.\u00a0 Only a few pieces of equipment were salvaged \u2013 most notably was the long 3500 lb. taffy machine which was restored and is still in operation today. \u00a0Once the new building was complete the now iconic orange Dolles sign was put in place for the first time.<\/h4>\n

The current owner, operator of Dolles on the boardwalk is Thomas Ibach who took over after his grandfather, Thomas Pachides, passed away at the age of 92 in 1984.\u00a0 Mr. Ibach uses the same taffy, fudge, caramel corn and brittle recipes of his late grandfather.<\/h4>\n

Dolles \u2013 a true and loved landmark in Rehoboth Beach.<\/h4>\n
