There is something about a hometown advantage that makes a product or sports team near and dear to your heart and we surely have that feeling towards Clark Bars which were originally manufactured in McKeesport, Pennsylvania just a few blocks away from our warehouse.
The company had been producing candy since 1886 but a prototype of the beloved Clark Bar wasn’t introduced until 1917. As you probably guessed, the owner of the company’s last name was Clark and unbeknownst to him when he offered his first honeycomb and peanut butter bar, an East Coast legend was born who will soon be celebrating their 95th birthday!
Later, the company moved to Pittsburgh, PA and it was all but impossible to drive through the city and not see their famous neon sign which was as much an icon of Pittsburgh as the ubiquitous Steelers logo. The company is no longer located in Pittsburgh but the sign remains as a tourist attraction.
Over the years the brand has changed hands quite a few times and is now owned by New England Confectionary Company – yes, the manufacturers of Necco Wafers – but one thing remains constant and that is that Clark Bars are a delicious snack and a true rarity once you go West of the Mississippi.
Should you be wondering, Necco DID change the formula to All Natural in 2010 but changed it back to the beloved original in 2011 which is a true example of the old saying, “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it…”

[message]The candy at Candyfavorites.com is outstanding but the weather patterns can be confusing and harsh from region to region in the United States, let alone other areas of the world. My thought is to protect your purchase with Hot Weather and Fragile Protection ...it works for us in NC.
Trick-o-treaters love cotton candy!
We are very pleased with our purchase of Brach's Indian Corn. It is only available during this time of the year & it disappears quickly off the shelves in stores. That's why I order this from CandyFavorites.com. Brach's Indian corn is available even when the stores run out, but don't wait too long to place your order! The 3 pound bag arrived in a box packaged to keep it cold & fresh, so there was no melting of the candy due to warmer temperatures. We like to mix our Indian Corn with dry roasted peanuts, it tastes a lot like Baby Ruths!
