The art of candy making has a rich history dating back to ancient times. Ancient civilizations used honey to preserve fruits resulting in a sticky but tasty treat. The Aztecs and Mayans ground up the seeds of cacao pods into a spicy, chocolate concoction.
Modern civilization has had a profound effect on candy making as well. Mass production and increased availability of sugar during the Industrial Revolution open the doors to cost-effective candy making techniques. Candy went from being an exclusive delicacy of the wealthy to being an everyday treat for the general population.
Thanks to modernization, techniques and recipes have been perfected over the years. Now, candy makers are adding a “twist” to their confections in the form of novelty candy. From the well-loved PEZ dispenser to lollipops that spin and even light up, novelty candies are a whole new take on candy!
If you love gummy candy, you’ll love the wide variety of fun – and delicious – shapes available. Haribo Gummy Bears are cute but there time in the spotlight is over. Instead, Gummy Sharks, Rats, Worms, Army Guys, Chicken Legs, Dinosaurs, Eyeballs, Fish, Hot Dogs, and Crocodiles are just a small sampling of the novelty gummy candy you’ll find. Huge tubs of gummy candies let you dig in and enjoy. Many of these tubs offer individually wrapped candies for freshness and cleanliness.
Another trend in novelty candies is a move towards sports related items. Big pouches of Big League Chew shredded bubble gum are the perfect choice to take to the ball field. Baseball bats filled with candies and candy-filled baseballs are grand slam hits with fans of all ages. Foil wrapped chocolates in the shape of footballs, basketballs, baseballs, and soccer balls are sure to please.
Novelty candies are fun and new. They can range from delightful to full blown gross-out. Delightful novelty candies include character PEZ dispensers and spinning lollipops while a line of candies inspired by reality programming such as Survivor and Fear Factor are 100% gross. These icky sounding items are actually quite tasty if you can get past their presentation. If you’re having a group of Survivor fans over for the grand finale, be sure to stock up on some novelty candy that’s perfect for the occasion.
Novelty candy is the perfect type of candy for handing out at Halloween. The kids absolutely love items like wax fangs, candy bugs, eyeballs, and candies that mimic dismembered fingers and other bloody wounds.
Creative packaging and fun dispensers make novelty candies unique. From bubble gum packed in a cell phone-shaped container to Pop Rocks, you can’t go wrong when you include a selection of these innovative and fresh confections to your order. |
