You might have heard the name "Oh Henry!" and thought of baseball legend Hank Aaron, but the real story behind this classic "Peanutty, Caramel, Fudge Bar" is even more fun.
The bar is believed to have been launched around 1920 by the Williamson Candy Company in Chicago.
The name reportedly came from a charming young man named Henry who visited the candy shop so often — and flirted so shamelessly — that the girls working there would call out "Oh, Henry!" every time he walked in.
The peanut-and-sweet combination may have even older roots....
Explorer Hiram Bingham wrote in 1911 about native guides in Peru serving his group a trail snack of sugar and roasted peanuts pressed into a mold — a surprisingly familiar combination.
According to one unverified account, a similar candy called the Tom Henry Bar existed as early as 1910.
That would help explain why a candy resembling the Oh Henry! Bar was reportedly mentioned in a 1915 Tom Swift novel as a soldier's energy boost during World War I.
As the ol' saying goes, " if it ain't broke, don't fix it..." and that is exactly what Ferrero Group did when they acquired the brand in 2018
One thing needs no footnote — it's delicious and has been for over 100 years!
Net Weight 1.8 oz.
24 ct.
We are not sure "Peanutty" is an actual word, but it does convey the main ingredient of this delicious candy bar.

I was so happy to receive my sour Razzles. I used to get them at Five Below but they quit selling them and it made my day to find them here. Thank you so much.

Great customer service and prices
I tried a limited time release butterfinger french toast bar from a convenience store and went back next day and they were sold out. After many online retailers advertising the same bar for $10-$12 each I found candy favorites online and was able to get 3 boxes of these amazing bars shipped to my home on ice packs all for around $2 per bar.
I Keep them in the fridge. Grandkids have discovered they are there so I may be ordering again very soon!

Hi Janice! We're so glad you loved the bubble gum balls and enjoyed the flavors. Dubble Bubble is a classic bubble gum with a flavor that spans decades, almost as old as our wholesale company - we were founded in 1927, and their Original Formula came out in 1928! Thanks for choosing CandFavorites.com and for sharing your nice review!
Love these Jelly Belly Sours! Ordering was a breeze and delivery was fast!
We are thrilled to hear you love the Jelly Belly Sours and that the ordering and delivery process was as 'sweet' as the candy you received! Thanks for sharing your kind words and for shopping at CandyFavorites.com!
