    Why not keep the existing name?
    Where is it located?
    Who should the name appeal to?

    The store is located in a flea mkt in SC. I wanna appeal to the older generation who actually forgot about alot of the candies that I do sell.

    My guess is that your store provides an impulse purchase opportunity for visitors to the flea market, not the other way around. (People don't head to the flea market just because they want some old-fashioned candy.)

    If you have the option of keeping at least the KB portion of the current name, that might be good. At least it will not look totally strange to long-time customers. You can then add a word or phrase that makes it clear what you're all about.

    The combination of foods you offer don't usually go together, so you are probably best served to focus on the candy and let folks discover the other things.

    How about:
