Vintage. It is a term used for wine. For a cigar. It’s a flat thread with an antique finish. What do we mean by vintage?
We’re talking vintage candy! For us, it defines: great, old, memories, fun, nostalgia. Not in any particular order, but there it is.
We offer 48 types of vintage candy. Old time candy. Great candy. Fun candy. We offer it in retro lunch boxes (retro=just another word for vintage!) that will look great at your home, office, party, get together. You can’t bring back memories like this for this great price. It all costs under $20! Who can put a price on laughter, friends, food, fun and memories? I can’t.
Here’s an idea. How about buying a box or two, and showing your kids what REAL candy is all about? And you can show it off in the packaging. That in itself is a great discussion topic.
I did this with my kids. They looked in the box and said, “What’s this?” “What does this taste like?” Being teens, they were a little skeptical to try anything that didn’t start with the words “sour”. But they loved it! Create a memory night for those you love.

Archeologists have found pumpkin-related seeds dating between 7000 and 5500 B.C. in Mexico.
Do you know how to bake pumpkin seeds? It’s quite a process. Who wants pumpkin all over their kitchen? Who has time anyway?
But if pumpkins seeds are something you enjoy, we can make this easy. So easy, that we can deliver it right to your door! Believe it or not, pumpkin seeds were sold in packages as far back as the 1950’s! We have found them once again, as well as 40+ other vintage candies to bring a smile to your face.
But wait! There’s more! (don’t you love those commercials?). You can purchase your vintage candies in retro lunch boxes and containers. Speaking of commercials, why don’t you pop on over to our website to view some of the greatest vintage commercials?

One type of vintage candy is the Atomic Fireball. This candy was invented in 1954 and quickly became one of the most popular types of candy in the candy store. They were HOT! Many children began challenging each other to see who could eat the most in one setting. What was your score?
What do Atomic Fireballs have in common with Elvis Presley? He didn’t release any movies. No platinum or gold albums. BUT, he did do some 45’s in July and was well on his way to becoming “HOT”!
They have one other thing in common. They are both offered on our website! You can order 48 varities of vintage candy, and have it packaged in over 20 styles of packages ranging from decorated boxes to retro lunch boxes.
The choice is yours. Not necessarily simple, but yours! Though the choices are not simple, we do make the rest of the process easy.

Who cares about the contents of a box? We do. Think Bazooka Joe.Who cares about the look of a container? We do. Think Betty BoopWe take pride in what we offer. What is that? Over forty kinds of 50’s and 60’s vintage candy offered in retro style lunch boxes! Our candy is not duplicated and you have a choice of over 19 boxes to choose from!
Our vintage candy is a pure walk down memory lane. It belongs in boutiques, gas stations, 50’s diners, antique store shelves, and face it…why not in your home or on your desk? What a great conversation starter!
Betty Boop made her first appearance on August 9, 1930. Her character was modeled after a combination of Helen Kane,the famous popular singer of the 1920s and contract player at Paramount Pictures, and Clara Bow who was a popular actress in the 1920s who had a strong Brooklyn accent.
What about Bazooka? It was first marketed shortly after World War II in the U.S. by the Topps Company based in Brooklyn, New York.
