Memorial Day is just around the corner—this year, it falls on Sunday, May 26—and while we all love a good cookout and a long weekend complete with outdoor swimming and perhaps a suntan,
It's also a time to honor those who've proudly served our country.
What better way to add a little sweetness to your celebration than with Red, White, and Blue treats that are as festive and delicious?
After all, hamburgers and hot dogs may be delicious, but who doesn't like some candies, especially when they are MADE IN THE USA?
At CandyFavorites.com, we've covered your patriotic candy game for nearly 100 years—98, to be exact!
Today, we spotlight three all-star sweets perfect for your Memorial Day bash.
Whether hosting a backyard BBQ, heading to a parade, or filling goodie bags for the neighborhood kids, these candies bring flavor and flair to any celebration.
Classic? Yes. Crowd-pleasing? Absolutely. But make them Red, White, and Blue? Now that's a party!
Patriotic Tootsie Rolls are the same chewy chocolatey goodness you know and love, wrapped in festive colors that scream "U-S-A!" They're perfect for candy bowls, DIY treat bags, or table decor.

What's more American than bling you can eat?

With red and blue swirls and that classic Ring Pop taste, they double as entertainment and candy.
Slip one on and instantly become the most stylish person at the picnic.
Okay, we already mentioned a Tootsie variation, but Patriotic Tootsie Rolls deserve a shoutout because they're that good.
After all, we are talking about Tootsie Midgees, which have long been at the top of any candy lover's list!
