confectionary
Where treats abound
Confectionary is a less common spelling of confectionery, referring to candy and sweet treats collectively, or to a shop where such sweets are made and sold.
The spelling with -ary appears occasionally but confectionery dominates in both American and British usage.
The old confectionary on Main Street closed last year.
