Spread the Christmas spirit with a red Father Christmas Clear Toy Candy sucker!
In the 1800s, children in Pennsylvania would eagerly await a sweet surprise in their Christmas stockings: Christmas Clear Toy Candy. The Clear Toy Candy was a special gift for Christmas morning because not only were sugared treats rare during the 18th and 19th centuries, but the process of making the Clear Toy Candy was difficult outside of the winter months. Today, Clear Toy Candy is a vintage holiday tradition that Startup Candy Co. continues to carry on for families who wish to celebrate one of the earliest Christmas traditions in America.
