A Helena staple, the relatively unchanged Parrot Confectionery celebrated its 100th anniversary during the Easter holiday. Opening on April 28, 1922, The Parrot Confectionery was originally in a different location until that building burned down. The candy shop has been in its current location since the 1930s, and despite changing owners a few times, through it all, the Parrot has remained just about the same as it was when they first moved into their current address. Most of the candy is made by hand and the candy making process has remained just about the same.
