In 1896, Tootsie Roll debuted, introduced by Leo Hirshfield of New York who named them after his daughter’s nickname, “Tootsie”.

In 1901, Multicolored candy disks called “NECCO Wafers” first appear named for the acronym of the New England Confectionery Company.

In 1925 Bit-O-Honey the honey-flavored taffy bar made with bits of almond is first introduced.

In 1931 Tootsie Roll Pops are introduced and are consider by some to be the first “novelty candy” as they combined two candies in one.

In 1949 Smarties candy roll wafers are introduced. They are often referred to as “candy pills”.

Here are just a few facts and thoughts about old time candy. After all, old time candy is a popular part of our heritage. An important part of our culture. And who could forget all of these favorites? It’s a great part of our childhood. So “dance” with us to the tune of these old time candy thoughts:

Did you know that the Charleston Chew was named after a dance popular in the 1920’?

Here is a great quote, that just about sums up many peoples thoughts on candy:

“I would stand transfixed before the windows of the confectioners’ shops, fascinated by the luminous sparkle of candied fruits, the cloudy lustre of jellies, the kaleidoscope inflorescence of acidulated fruitdrops — red, green, orange, violet: I coveted the colours themselves as much as the pleasure they promised me.”
Simone de Beauvoir (1908-1986) French Existentialist, writer

Ever been to Hershey, Pennsylvania? I have. It claims to be the “sweetest place on earth”. I can also tell you why. This is where some of the best chocolate on earth is made. The factory has been there since 1876.

Oh yeah, I have been on the chocolate-making (the chocoholics dream) tour. I liken it to “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” I was in HEAVEN! The huge vats of chocolate (no, sorry, no waterfalls!). But the smells, the sights, the closeness of it all. Mmmmm.

Looking for great old time candy? We don’t offer tours of our factory. But we do offer the best old time candy you can ask for. Parachute jumpers, Twizzlers, and over 40 other, non-melting varieties.

We have poured lots of sugary- sweet love into the making of our product. We have searched high and low for the best old time candy still available. Done all the hard work for you! It’s all available in one place now. It’s also uniquely packaged to depict the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s era. It’s themed to match our vintage, old time candy.

Bring home a box today and relive your favorite times!

NECCO. This is definitely OLD TIME candy! It is a strange name. Actually it’s an abbreviation standing for New England Confectionary Company. It dates back to the summer of 1847, founded by a young English immigrant, Oliver Chase. It is the oldest multi-line candy company in the United States. Yes, that’s right. Even Hershey’s, another old time candy manufacturer, wasn’t marketed until 1876.

What does that have to do with us, here, at Nostalgic candy? We sell only the best old time candy! NECCO is a part of that offer. From NECCO, we present to you the original wafers, Mary Jane, and Candy Buttons! We do have over 40 varieties in our packages.

And speaking of packages? We have GREAT ones! Thinking old time? Keep thinking, you’re on the right track… we offer antique style lunch pails decorated with old time classics such as Superman, Betty Boop, John Deere and more.
