Satellite Wafers: The Sweet Taste of Nostalgia and the Space Age
Satellite Wafers are among the most innovative candies around today. The taste is delicate, full of fruit-ish undertones and sweetness. For most of us the real pleasure of these ever-popular candies, however, is the TEXTURE. The shell is a thin, melt-in-your-mouth wafer. The inside is filled with tiny, sweet sugar morsels that have a satisfying crunch, reminiscent of the sprinkles we enjoy on cookies or ice cream. Or, if you’ve had one, imagine communion wafers in a secular candy incarnation. But you don’t have to eat a Satellite Wafer to enjoy it: Satellite Wafers are one of the few candies that make a noise before you eat it. Just shake the candy and hear the happy jingling of the sugar bits bouncing around merrily about to enter the outer limits of its space journey: your mouth.

Satellite Wafers: The Retro Candy That Takes You to Space
Satellite Wafers, also known as "Flying Saucers," are a unique candy that combines delicate, melt-in-your-mouth wafers with a crunchy, sugary filling. Invented in Belgium in the 1950s by a communion wafer maker, they were inspired by the excitement of the space age. Their airy texture and playful sound—created by shaking the candy to hear the sugar bits inside—make them a nostalgic favorite. While their flavor is light and subtly sweet, it’s their texture that truly defines them. Still popular in Europe and a cherished retro candy in the U.S., Satellite Wafers offer a taste of history—but their story doesn’t end there…
