Brach's Classic Candy Corn (11oz) 311g Halloween Candy

Product Information

The waxy texture wasn’t appealing to me and the over the top amount of sugar seemed a little too much for a piece of candy. Each little piece of candy is shaped to look like a corn kernel but is packed full of a marshmallow like fondant centre. This product was manufactured in a facility where milk, eggs, tree nuts, coconut, wheat and peanuts are used in the production of other products. Happening every year just before Halloween on October 30th, National Candy Corn Day is the day to post your pics on social media and get the conversation started! Candy corn first appeared when the United States was a largely agrarian society, and its tri-color design was considered revolutionary.

The recipe was bought by Goelitz Confectionary Company, now the Jelly Belly Candy Company, and has been producing it since 1898. Perhaps because its look was reminiscent of farm life, it caught on with city folk nostalgic for a rural past.Candy corn developed into a fall and Halloween staple around the 1950s when people began to hand out individually wrapped candy to trick-or-treaters.

Their Candy Corn Crunch is a white chocolate bark that’s dotted with full pieces of candy corn and halved, roasted peanuts. Although the earthy-vanilla of the sugar cookie balances out the unadulterated sweetness of the candy corn, I do not recommend eating it all at once (unless you don't want to move for a while). Update: For those afraid of the raw eggs in cookie dough, I recommend making egg-free cookie dough instead. Then they added fondant (a sweet, creamy icing made from sugar, corn syrup and water) and marshmallow for smoothness. In recent years, several additional flavors of candy corn have been introduced including classic tastes like peppermint, pumpkin spice, red velvet cake and fruit punch.

This product was manufactured in a facility where MILK, EGGS, ALMONDS, COCONUT and PEANUTS are used in the production of other products. If you were of the opinion that candy corn is trash—waxy, overly sweet, only edible once a year and only if there’s nothing else sweet around—you probably wouldn’t care which candy corn is the best candy corn. Candy corn is made with sugar, corn syrup, salt, sesame oil, honey, artificial flavor, food colorings, gelatin, and confectioner's glaze. I could see this being a fun center piece or a part of a candy table where guests may pick off candy corns as they like. Whether you think they’re too sweet, too bland, or just right, this sweet treat is here to stay for the long haul.

Brach’s also sells those little pumpkins made out of the same substance as candy corn, but they’re just too big. Bag Sathers are renowned for all types of candy and it's not surprising with all the shapes, sizes and flavours they have on offer!

George Renninger of the Wunderlee Candy Company invented it in the 1880s, according to the National Confectioners Association. Lack of automated machinery meant that candy corn was only made seasonally, likely starting production in late August and continuing through the fall.
