Jawbreakers
If you don't know what jawbreakers are, let us enlighten you. These hard, round, ball-shaped candies are often mistaken for gumballs. Trouble is, they are so hard to bite into that you risk “breaking your jaw”. Instead of biting into them, most people settle for sucking on them instead. Unlike gumballs, jawbreakers are typically solid from the outer candy coating to their inside core.
Ferrara Pan Candy Company initially had the trademark for the name Jawbreaker however the term because so common that the term has become the generic name used to describe this type of candy.
Fans of jawbreakers love them for their long-lasting flavors and the fun involved in eating them. Many kids have dared and double-dared each other to chomp into a jawbreaker. The challenge is one that is hard to resist and even harder to achieve.
Sugar Stand stocks a huge selection of these awesome, jaw-breaking treats. In fact, you'll find the biggest jawbreaker ever made within our website's pages. This giant jawbreaker is called the Mega Bruiser Jawbreaker. Mega Bruiser weighs a hefty one pound! Chomp on that – double-dare you!
We carry jawbreakers in a variety of sizes ranging from the previously described Mega Bruiser to tiny little Micro Bruisers.
Candy makers continue innovating when it comes to this schoolyard favorite. You can now get jawbreakers on a stick or in combinations with the hard outer coating and a bubblegum or powered candy core. You'll have a rainbow of colors to choose from including speckled ones and swirls. You'll love the look of SPLAT!, Psychadelic Jawbreaker Lollypops, and the Bizarre Time Jawbreakers. These items are a feast for the eyes and your mouth.
Another reason that these treats are so popular is that they take forever to eat. Remember Willy Wonka's Everlasting Gobstopper? That's what we're talking about! The children's book by Roald Dahl, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, featured the Everlasting Gobstopper which was said to last forever. We've tested the theory, and no, they don't last forever but they do last a long time. Jawbreakers outlast just about any candy you can buy.
Wonder where the term “Gobstopper” comes from? It's slang. Gob is United Kingdom slang for the word mouth. So think of a gobstopper as a mouth stopper. So call them jawbreakers or gobstoppers if you wish and enjoy them all day long.
For long lasting flavor, nothing beats a Jawbreaker from Sugar Stand!
