Bun Bars

[1] Wayne Candies and their Bun Bars went through a string of corporate owners in the second half of the twentieth century.

[1] When Standard merged with Nabisco in 1981, Wayne Candies was briefly shut down before being sold to German confectioner August Storck KG.

[3] Wayne's sister firm under Pittsburgh Food & Beverage, D. L. Clark Company, marketed another sports-themed caramel variety, the Mario Bun, honoring National Hockey League star, Mario Lemieux.

Bun Bars have one of three flavored centers (maple, vanilla, or sea salt caramel) covered in unsalted peanuts and milk chocolate.

When first bought by Pearson's in 1998, maple and vanilla flavors were available, and later caramel was added to the line-up.
