When it’s time to focus on your holiday shopping, what better place than at the delectable food emporiums in Corsicana. Here you can visit three factory stores, all with yummy goodies.
- The Collin Street Bakery – yes, those world-famous fruitcakes!
- Navarro Pecan Company – pecans of all types plus jams, jellies, sauces and candies.
- Russell Stover Candy Company – chocolate, chocolate, chocolate in all shapes and sizes.
In addition to these yummies for the tummy, we will serve food for the mind as well. We will see the historical sites of the town, including Texas’ First Oil Well. Did you know the Texas oil industry was born in Corsicana?
