Spring Grove Soda: www.springgrovesoda.com Especially the Lemon Sour flavor. Uses cane sugar (which I prefer the taste of) and the bottle says "mange tusen takk."
Knudsen's Caramels: www.knudsenscaramels.com So soft, so buttery. My favorite caramels ever.
Please share your favorites!
What's your hometown, OP?

I also love Movarian Cookies, Im starting to see those in more gourmet specialty shops.
And I am always excited to see Cheerwine on the shelf at Harris Teeter.
Oh and Biscuitville (which is based in VA but all over NC).
NC Native here... I attended Governor's School one summer and fell in love with W-S. Oh, those were the days. We ate a LOT of Moravian cookies. (I also have a Moravian star that we use in our Christmas decorations... no one in our neighborhood has one and we've gotten lots of compliments.)
But you misspelled Krispy Kreme. I'm going to assume that's an auto correct fail.

OP, Red Wing, MN.
We also have the shoes and the pottery, but those aren't really niche products!
