DESCRIPTION
Cream candies were a favorite among kids in the mid-1800s. The flavor is rich and sweet, with a hint of vanilla. The texture is true melt-in-your-mouth, more like cake frosting than other candies, without being messy or drippy. These cream candies come individually wrapped, so they’re easy to carry and store. Why Kentucky? They are made by a Kentucky-based candymaker. Traditional and good. Story comes on the label.

Historical Insights
Historical Insights
Cream candies go back for centuries, when sugar was stirred and refined into a creamy paste. One great example – which should not be missed, is the hard-to-find cream filberts of the late 1700s. These have a nut coated with creamed sugar and finished with delicate sugar shell much like another favorite, French creams. Children enjoyed creams as an inexpensive treat, while grown-up versions were more decorative and fanciful. The varieties were advertised far and wide, the selections as varied as the places where they were sold. Turn-of-century ads touted black walnut, apple jack, pecan, strawberry nut, peanuts and coconut creams – as bewildering to us as they were delicious to their customers.
