Pink Wintergreen Lozenges deserve a place in the candy Hall of Fame as they are one of the oldest candies available! The original was made by NECCO who went out of business in 2019 but the new ones, manufactured by RITO, taste almost as good - maybe even better! Imitation, after all, is the highest form of flattery!
Much like White Peppermints, the original pink lozenges first appeared in Canada during the late 1880s, but didn't arrive in the United States until the early 1900s, hence their nickname "Canada Mints." Originally sold in bulk, it wasn't until 1916 that they were offered as a $.05 count good which gave them pride of place on any well-appointed candy counter. We are grateful they are back and you will be too...

Back to the Past Future
I can remember how the original Canada Wintergreen Mints tasted and their easily chewable consistency. I loved them as a teen in the '50's and these Rita's are a carbon copy!
We absolutely love this candy too! It is so delicious and certainly is nostalgic for other candies that we cannot find. We are so glad that you enjoyed them and your order. Thank you for choosing CandyFavorites.com!
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
Unfortunately, this product didn’t work for me. I love hot chilies, especially ghost peppers and Calabrian chilies. I expected the tongue torchers to give me the same kick. Upon receiving the candy I put one in my mouth and within a couple of minutes I got a very upset stomach. The taste in my mouth was more of a chemical kind of taste. I threw away 5 pounds of candy in the garbage. This was a learning experience for me.
We try hard to live up to cusotmer expectations or even exceed them! We are thrilled to hear that your candies are what you expected and are ever gratful that you choose CandyFavorites.com!
Thank you for your kind review! We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed our EDA's sugar-free coconut candy and that our delivery service was prompt. We truly strive to live up to our motto of 'candy is what we deliver but service is what we sell.' We appreciate you choosing CandyFavorites.com and and hope to continue providing you with delicious candy and excellent service in the future.
Although these are Christmas themed candies and toys, I intend to distribute them as treats on Halloween. The candies were well packaged and arrived quickly and without damage. The fact that they are not chocolate candies made their shipment during hot summer months easier than shipping chocolates. Thank you! I’m sure these items will make wonderful treats.-
Thank you for your review of our Pez Christmas Dispensers! We're so happy to hear that they arrived quickly and in good condition. We agree, few candies bring as much joy as Pez and the holiday themed ones are both collectibles and make for a terrific gift. We hope they make for wonderful stocking stuffers! We remain grateful that you choose CandyFavorites.com for all your candy needs!

Everything was good
Everything was good. The delivery was fast and I especially liked that it was packed with ice packages and quilted aluminum blanket. The bars were fresh and delicious.

Jelly fruit slices, the best!
These jelly fruit slices are some of the freshest candy I've had. They are similar to Chuckles only much softer and dusted with just the right amount of sugar. They're perfect!

Arrived as Advertised
The cigarettes arrived mostly intact and taste exactly how I remembered them. I refused to buy them on Amazon because of the mixed reviews from 3rd party sellers. However, this seller delivered as advertised (and with no red mold!)
