An Amazing GIFT - EXCLUSIVE to True Treats! Perfect for the History Lover, Food Lover, and Adventurer

Three time periods, three explorations of historic sweets and treats. Each period gift box includes a selection of 12 sugars and sweets. PLUS each time-period gets its own keepsake card with the story of each item on the back and a copy of an original drawing or photograph from that time on the front.

DISCOVER! 1700s Sweets! Candied Flowers, Sugar Plums, and Chocolate. Real, 100% Chocolate. Sample a range of 18th-century candies and sweets, enjoyed as a digestive, treat, medicine, and more. You'll taste the affluent lightness of candied, flower petals, the rich crunchy goodness of cream filberts, and the earthiness of cacao beans still in the shell…and many more.

1800s – Sweet and Bitter, Where Memory Meets Surprise! Get on the wild ride of candies the age of industry. Savor the smooth richness of Wilbur Buds, one of the first chocolate kisses in the U.S. Enjoy sweet sorghum drops and bitter horehound, and let your teeth sink into the sweet and timelessly popular Turkish delight. You’ll also behold familiar sweets you never knew were old such as the ever-controversial Circus Peanuts. And the stories? Revealed on the keepsake card.

1900s – From Penny Candy to Fizz and Pop. Take a fast-moving tasting trip through the 20th century from chocolate-covered fruits and nuts, enjoyed at movie theaters and bridge games, to the garishly colored licorice laces. Just when you think you’ve tried it all, dip into the late 1960s with the fizzy fun of ZotZ candy and other delights you may not know or know too well! Loaded with laughs and memories.

A creation of Susan Benjamin, researcher and True Treats founder and president.
