Charlie's Candy has been a staple of the Vincennes community since 1955. The business began in the home of Charles and Lorethea Hamke. During the remodel of their house, they would reward their helpful friends with tins of homemade caramel corn after a long day of work. Soon, strangers began reaching out to the Hamkes with requests to purchase tins of their famous dessert.
The couple started a thriving business that they eventually passed on to some family friends. Charlie's Candy still operates out of the old Hamke home. Modern visitors can buy caramel corn as well as other types of sweets. Seasonal items are also available throughout the year.
