It's tough to find a candy that starts with "E," but these classic jawbreakers are the only ones you need! Born inside the mind of author Roald Dahl, Everlasting Gobstoppers first appeared in his book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. A few years later, a candy company started producing a real-life version of the super-hard sweets, and the rest is history!
Hooray for DOTS! They're the most colorful candy we've profiled so far, their name describes them perfectly, and they have that classic gumdrop shape. Could you ask for anything more?
First, a confession: The wrapper of the candy sampled for this article actually reads "Long Boys Coconut," so maybe we're jumping the gun a little bit. We do, however, have plenty of photographic evidence that some of the packaging for these candies reads "Coconut Long Boys," so we're filing it under "C!"
There's no mention of it on the Pearson's Candy website, but it's possible that a time machine is used in the manufacture of Bun Bars. Even if you've never seen a Bun before, one look at its retro wrapper and irregular round shape will tell you these chewy, chocolaty, nutty confections are a classic candy of yesteryear.
We're probably not the first to offer the sage advice in the title of this post. We are, however, putting it into practice each and every day here at All City Candy, and we think that's a topic worth exploring.
For those of you who aren't aware, All City Candy isn't just a retailer of other manufacturers' sweets -- we also have our very own confectionery kitchen where we are cranking out some seriously scrumptious creations.
