Edward D. Danziger, Vienna's famous candy king, has settled with his wife and family in Chapel Hill. Although he had received Austria's highest medal for bravery while fighting and being captured on the Russian front in World War I, he had to leave the country in 1939 when Hitler took over Austria because his grandfather was Jewish. His recipes are his own and he has devoted his whole life to the candy business. Tripp recounts how he came to Chapel Hill and opened Danziger's Candy and Coffee Shop on Franklin Street.
