When your taste-buds demand a sweet treat there is no better place to find one than the Mother Lode Mercantile old-fashioned candy store in Goldfield Ghost Town. Visiting the store is like stepping back in time to the days when stage coaches and wagons plied the famous Apache Trail and Goldfield was a bustling gold-rush town, home to the largest gold mine in Arizona. The candy store occupies the original premises of Petersen’s Mercantile and is known for its amazing selection of unique candies and fudges. A highlight of any visit to Mother Lode Mercantile is their world-famous Prickly Pear Fudge – the ideal gift to take back home with you.
