A sweet shop has marked three months in business.
Go Fudge Yo’self, based in Unit 49 of Andover’s Chantry Centre, officially opened its doors on October 25.
The shop is run by sisters Laurien Griffiths and Ashlyn Edwards, who were born and raised in Andover and decided to launch the business in the town centre as a new venture together.
Laurien Griffiths, co-owner, said: "It's been amazing so far, we have absolutely loved being here in the town centre, the customers seem to really love our sweet wall, which I think is one of the things that is really attracting people to come in, it brings a lot of nostalgia to people."

Among its most popular items are the cookie pies, which have quickly become a customer favourite.
Laurien said: "I think a real customer favourite is the cookie pies, we can't make enough of them, they are the biggest on our socials and our customers, whether they are just passing by or coming in, it feels like their attention is drawn to them.
Co-owner and sister, Ashlyn said: "It's been a whirlwind first few months, it's been very busy, and the support from everyone in the community has been nothing short of mind-blowing.
"It doesn't feel like it's been three months; it feels like we've been here years, but it does feel crazy saying it's been three months.
"Everyone's been really welcoming and nice, so it's just been great to be here. We're really looking forward to our sign going up, which will hopefully be next week."
The sisters are thoroughly excited for the future and even have some plans coming up to surprise the Andover shoppers.
Laurien said: "We have some exciting things coming up, we have three big things planned, which we are looking forward to, so, yeah, we're really excited for the future and can't wait to see what people think when they happen."
