Thanks for sharing your sweet experience! Half the fun of old-school candies is the good memories they bring back! As for the Chocolate Stars, of, for that matter, anything from Brachs, they were discontinued several years ago much to the sadness of candy lovers! The good news is that old favorites like Sour Balls are still around!
Loved working with this team! They were so helpful, patient, courteous, professional, and helped make holiday gifting for over 200 clients so easy. Don't hesitate to reach out to Candy Favorites - they are the real deal! Thank you!
Thank you so much for the kind review! It was a pleasure working with you throughout the transaction! Anything you need from this end is always, but a phone call or mouse click away! Wishing you a happy and healthy New Year!
Childhood memories
Childhood Memories is what retro candy is all about! Thanks for choosing CandyFavorites.com!
The picture showed the white lettering typical of Primrose, and It came up on the Primrose filter. But, it has blue lettering, and came from Argentina(If my memory is correct). That said, I do like them anyway, and the quality seems as good as what I get from Primrose. I will probably buy them again if available. The problem is, how would one know what they are getting?
I love the red dollars. I am disappointed I can't get the snaps anymore.
We, too, are sad that Snaps are no longer available! Rest assured, we will certainly let you know when and if they become available!
I own a sporting goods store next to a dance studio. Part of my business plan was to have a C store in the front of my store for impulse buying and to draw some of the dancers in. I have gotten many compliments over the years for my variety. Candy Favorites has helped me continue offering items that people can\’t find, or never knew exited. My personal favorite is the Ice Cube. I have a whole new generation hooked on this smooth Chocolate treat. Some of the older customers remember the wrapper being silver and blue, and think that the packaging has been updated, but I let them know that when I was buying them in the sixties, they looked as they do today. I hope I win so I can pass that story along as well while I sell my treats.

I should win the free candy, because i visit your site often, but can rarely afford the candies I want. To me candy is much more then Just a snack or a sweet treat. Ever since i saw the movie willy wonka, i knew thats what i wanted to do. In my spare time i try to create new and unusual forms of our favorite candy. some of friends have even taken to calling me wonka. and i am so serious about my wonka fascinating i have it permeantly etched on my arm. just send me an email i’ll send you a photo if you like. and in closing id like to say that if I am chosen to be the winner, i will put the candy to much more use then Just eating it, and I will share the Joy of candyfavorites.com with all my friends!
I use to buy candy snakes for my nephew on this website. Cost over 30 dollars for 12, but they were worth it. Nephew is now 14, and still loves the snakes. But since my company closed us down, I can no longer afford them. I would love to win so I can “turn him on” to all the candy that me and his mom (my sister) grew up with. Turkish Taffy, chewy mint jullips, and of course his fav, the SNAKES! Some things you just never grow out of, and eating good candy is a family tradition for all of us!
When I was small I use to walk from my aunts house in New Castle, Pa. to the corner drug store with a nickle to buy a Mallo Cup. I could only do this while we visited her as they were not availible here in South Fl. Every now and then then I would get a dime and buy the duo pack. It’s been 50 years since then and some of my fondest childhood memories were of those walks to the store. Even my Dads store couldn’t get them because they were not availible for him to order. If I were to win the gift certificates I know exactly what I’d order. In 1962 I could get 1000 for $50, today with inflation not as many but it would be as close to heaven as I could get!
What a great contest! And thanks for NOT putting it on Facebook: I’m not on Facebook, so I can/will never enter Facebook contests (you know, the “like us and win” kind).
My dilema:
Every night after dinner I ask my wife, “do you want something sweet?”
Nine times out of ten she says, “yes.”
Then I say, “What are you in the mood for?”
Then I wait as she thinks. And, as she thinks, I take a mental inventory of what candy/sweets we have. I never tell her exactly what we have, because then she would for SURE say that she’s in the mood for something different. Not out of malice, mind you, but just because that’s the way it is. Still, 9 times out of ten she says she’s in the mood for something I don’t have. You can do the math, but I’m lucky if I have what she’s in the mood for once every two weeks. I try to be a good husband, but what I need is more variety! More variety, but also smaller portions, so the candy won’t go bad waiting to be chosen and eaten. And especially of sugar-focused candies, since she’s more often in the mood for those than for chocolate. Of course, whenever I have absolutely no chocolate in the house….. well, you know. Anyway, with your $50 of free candy, I’d buy your large retro candy gift package for her. Then I’d have to add $10-15 or so of stuff I like, to feed my internal candy monster, of course, but also to qualify for free shipping (free shipping, you see, being my excuse to buy candy for myself).
Thanks again for a great contest!
