DISCOVER! 1700s Sweets! Candied Flowers, Sugar Plums, and Chocolate. Real, 100% Chocolate. Sample a range of 18th-century candies, 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  more.

1800s – From Traditional Horehound to Circus Peanuts! Get on the wild ride of candies in 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 so old Circus Peanuts. The story of each selection is revealed in the keepsake card.

1900s – From Penny Candy to Zizz 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.
