Historical Insights
Candy Corn is, quite literally, indescribable. It seems like a retro treat but was actually invented in the 1880s. It’s sweet, which everyone agrees. The flavor is soft, much like a marshmallow, or maybe, a Circus Peanut, or, quite possibly, a softer version of the Charms in Lucky Charms. As for the colors: the classic candy corn was white, orange and yellow, although newer versions abound. Perhaps the greatest debate among Candy Corn Lovers is how to enjoy it. Throw the whole thing in your mouth? Eat it color by color? Starting at the bottom? Or is that the top? One thing is certain, with candy you’re eating a classic. AND guess what? It wasn’t just for Halloween! It was a favorite year-round. An Easter Idea from
The Freeport Journal Standard, 1935: “An Easter centerpiece is made of a sponge cake covered with green icing roughed up to look like grass. Add candy chicks eating kernels of candy corn”
