Throughout the years, candies have come and gone. We’re so focused on today that we forget about all the vintage candies that might even be better than our current favorites.

Over time, things like food trends and candies will come and go. Being so focused on what we currently have, we tend to forget what it was like in years past, where what we now call vintage candies were at their peak of popularity. For some that you will see below, they are still relevant and being sold in stores today; for others, we cannot find them anywhere, and need to bring them back.

Let’s go ahead and take a look at some of the best vintage candies that once were the main thing you saw when walking down the candy aisle, and determine if they’d not only still be relevant today, but also loved in today’s times. In addition, let’s figure out just what made all of these candies so popular and how they compare to some similar candies of today as well.

As you will see in the following slides, vintage candies, while they can’t all be found on the shelves of our grocery stores today, they are definitely not being forgotten. And perhaps going forward they may even make a sweet comeback.
