In 3, 2, 1 BLASTOFF! This may seem silly, but honestly, these were how Astro Pops came to be.
In 1963 two rocket scientists decided to quit their jobs working in the space program and dedicate their careers to delicious, out of this world (no pun intended, I know it’s corny) Astro Pops. This candy was modeled after a three-stage rocket with high-speed cone wrapping velocity.
The cone wrapper these scientists created was the mold for the popular Astro Pops that soon became space crazy fans' favorite candy. The hot candy is poured directly into the mold, and then a stick is added until the candy hardens and BAM, the Astro Pop, is created. The candy was purchased by its original maker by Spangler Candy in 1987 and was branded as the “longest-lasting lollipop on earth. Spangler Candy also expanded the flavor profile of the Astro Pops ranging from sour grape to vanilla.
The product was discontinued in 2004, but eventually, Leaf Brands bought the rights to the candy since Astro Pops was one of the CEO’s favorites. As a result, Astro Pops are now available for you to enjoy in many new flavors or stick to the classic!

The taste of candy changes as does our recollection of how it tasted. With so many retro candies being discontinued, it is special that products like Astro Pops still exist. Despite all, we hope you enjoyed your lollipops!

EVERY THING WONDERFUL...FRESH ALWAYS, DELIVER
Everything Wonderful...Fresh always, Deliver Quick. The only think was the order was large & in one bag would have liked in two bags. Recommend to everyone...Thank you Always
this 5lb. bag was not as good as our last two,,, the bag was not tied and jawbreakers spilled in the box, but not only that, some of them had a nasty taste to them ,,,we previously bought from grandpa joes but we were getting nasty ones ... after research we tried candy favorites and it was good, but this time they were not so great!
I’m sorry, but these don’t even resemble Brach’s maple nut goodies! I expected this item to at least have a similar flavor and texture, but it’s not even close! It almost seems rude to even compare the two imo!! These are peanuts dipped in maple flavored syrup, or something like that!! They left the “goodie” part out I believe!! I was so hopeful that these were going to take me back to my childhood, but instead, I just hope I never have to eat one of these again!! I appreciate the effort, but no thank you!
Thanks for sharing your honest critique. Brachs Maple Nut Goodies, like so many other Brachs candies, were discontinued many years ago. We have searched extensively to find a suitable substitute but, with that said, it is not a Maple Nut Goodie and doesn't taste like one. It's a catch-22 as the candy still exists to remind us of our childhood favorites, but, alas, it is not the same product.
My wife loves Clark Bars and we both had them as kids. But you can’t find them anywhere anymore. So for Valentines Day I thought I would try to find some. After looking elsewhere online I found that you had them. She’s enjoying very much.
As the saying goes, ' happy wife, happy life...' and if Clark Bars is what it takes, we are glad to be of service!
Great mild mint taste. Melts in your mouth. Nice size too.

I Snaps by the POUND!!!
I saw I could order Snaps after a lifetime drought. I order 6#,s, and ate em all. I saw a problem forming so I ordered 9# of Snaps in 12 oz packs. Still . I wanted sealed Snaps for the long haul. So I ordered another 6# bag … and ate it. The pandemic hits and I salivate over my sealed 12 oz bags. Then I ate em. A year later I found Snpas online. The were not cheap. I bought 4 12 oz bags. Opened the last one yesterday.

Perfect amount!!
With decent weather on Halloween, wanted to make sure I had plenty of candy to give away. Delivery was on time and kept me out of the stores buying old candy that had been on the shelves since Labor Day.
