Sweets of Yesteryear: A Sweet Retrospective

Old-fashioned candies have left their mark on generations with their unforgettable flavors and iconic shapes. Here's a look at some of the sweets that have captivated our taste buds and memories.

Popeye Cigarettes

These cigarette-shaped candy sticks, wrapped in white paper, were a sensation in the 60s and 70s. Their sweet and slightly mentholated taste offered a fun and somewhat rebellious experience. They still exist — rebranded as "Popeye Candy Sticks" in several markets.

Neapolitan Taffy

With its colorful layers and varied taste, Neapolitan taffy was a festival of flavors. Its chewy texture and attractive presentation made it a favorite for snacks and parties. It is still one of our best-selling products today.
