Lammes Candies appears to be closing all retail locations in Texas after 141 years of family operation. Affected stores include Round Rock and the flagship Austin location, with online sales continuing for a time, though exact closing dates vary by site.[2][4][5]
Key points
- Company: Lammes Candies, Austin-based since 1885, known for pralines and Texas-themed treats.[8]
- Reason given: changing market conditions and long-term sustainability concerns, per notices at Round Rock store and coverage by local outlets.[5][2]
- Closures: Round Rock location closed April 24, 2026; the Austin Airport Blvd store remains open for a bit longer before closing; finally, all retail locations are shut down.[4][2][5]
- Online sales: Continuing for an unspecified period after store closures (per CBS Austin and related reports).[5]
Illustration (what this means for customers)
- If you’ve enjoyed Lammes Candies, you may still be able to purchase online for a transitional period, but expect that availability will dwindle as operations wind down.[5]
- Local collectors or longtime fans may want to visit the remaining store while it’s open to stock up on favorites before closure.[4][5]
If you’d like, I can compile a concise timeline of the closures and pull the latest official statements or customer advisories from the company’s site and major local outlets. I can also summarize alternatives for similar Texas-made confections in the Austin area.
