Sometimes selling items that are convenience, but not necessarily high profit, will draw in more customers. An example might be a newspaper,then while they are there they might pick up some other items. Trial size items if you are in an area that gets lots of tourists. Your location would be an important consideration in this question.
Misc. items gift boxes, cards, items that people could throw together a quick gift if in a hurry. Prepackaged gift baskets or boxes.
Maybe something unique that could become a trademark such as a penny candy day where kids can bag up a limited amount of peiced candy in a little brown bag with purchase of other items. Kids have a lot of influence on where their parents shop sometimes.
Anything popular or trendy with children. Ty beanies were the hot item for a long time, then Pokemon cards, etc. Research what the hot item is with young kids today.

When I read your question (seriously) the first thought that came to mind was to consider what type of shopper comes into a candy store. Certainly to buy candy, but who are these people and what might be their related interestss. And then I thought of how Amazon.com handles this subject. Have you ever shopped from Amazon? Log on to Amazon for an experiment. I just did it. In the search feature, put in "candy". It will take you to all sorts of places that sell candy. But there's a feature that Amazon offers that you should look at. When you click on a product - such as one of the candy offerings - the next page will give another option. It tells you "what other people purchased in addition to this candy product". In other words, it gives some potential insight and ideas of 'associated products' having to do with candy, that other candy shoppers also purchased. Some of the examples that I noted were candy making supplies, or candy thermometers, or children's books about accepting candy from strangers, and more. Take a look and see if any of those ideas spark an idea that might be suitable for your own business format.
