This classic sugar candy was originally introduced by the Cumberland Valley company and J Sudak and Son of Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
In 1977, Sudak, which changed its name to Uncle Nibbles Candy Factory, sold to a repackager in Manhattan named CeeDee Candy, they sold to NECCO.
After that acquisition, Necco bought the Cumberland Valley Company in 1980, which made them the exclusive manufacturer of this product in the United States.
Each strip of the candy includes three flavors: cherry (pink), lime (blue), and lemon (yellow).
[3] Engineer and inventor George Theofiel Dib is credited with the invention of the candy button machine.
