About Us

The Start

  Mom worked at a Candy Store when I was a youngster and on occasion, I was able to go watch everything being made. When the store closed down, she acquired several of these vintage clear toy candy molds (1940's or earlier) mostly made by/for the Thomas Mills Company. They sat and sat, never really seeing the light of day from 1983 on. Now, it is 2021, the molds have found their way from New England to Florida, where they are definitely seeing the light as we use them on a near constant basis! The joy and memories I have when creating these handmade lollipops is wonderful and a true BLAST FROM THE PAST for me that I am excited to share with you!


Handcrafted Goods

 5 Simple ingredients make these tasty clear toy candy treats!

Water, Sugar, Corn Syrup, flavor oil, and a drop of coloring are all that is used. It's a slight deviation from the original recipes which included no flavoring and no stick, but it seems like everyone likes flavors and that most everyone enjoys not having super sticky hands, clothes, furniture, cars... well you get my point, so we added them. If you want them with no stick and no flavor... that can be done too.   Our goal is to make your taste-buds happy!

*different batches may have different color consistencies but we try really hard to keep them close*

The Process


We have a limited amount of molds to create the clear toy candy (regretfully) and they are not easy to come by. Each mold produces from 2-4 pieces per batch. This results in a fairly time consuming process especially if you want 100 or more of the same shape... we can and will do it for you, with love... just don't ask for them to be ready this afternoon. :) We make our tasty handmade lollipops for Birthday Parties, Baby Showers, Engagements, Meeting and Functions, as well as day to day enjoyment, I mean who doesn't like a good lollipop?

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):

    • Q: How did Clear Toy Candies get started?
    • A: Clear toy candy came to the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania area of America with German settlers in the 1800s.    At Christmas time, hard candy makers created these sweet treats to give to children.  Parents would place it on a plate with some fruit and a handful of nuts.  They were shaped to mimic small toys that children could play with.  These toy candies were traditionally red, green, or yellow and did not have any flavors in them.  After children played with the toy candy, these sweet treats were consumed, and for them, it was a prized gift that they savored by having a little at a time and then rinsing to save for later....hours.....days....as long as they could to enjoy them.


    • Q: Do I have to order Clear Toy Candy as a lollipop or can I order them without the stick, without the flavors, or without both?
    • A: YES!  While we put them on a stick to make them less sticky and easier to eat, we can also make them without.  For more information and pricing, contact us.


    • Q: Are your lollipops KETO friendly?
    • A: No, sorry, but they are worth a little cheat day every once in awhile.


    • Q: How long does it take to make each batch of lollipops from start to finish?
    • A: It takes about an hour to go from ingredients to finished labeled product.


    • Q: Can I customize the label that is on the outside packaging?
    • A: Of course you can!  For more information, contact us.


    • Q:Are there ways to customize flavors such as blueberry lemonade or cinnamon apple?
    • A: Yes, that is the beauty of these handcrafted treats.  Contact us with your ideas and we will let you know what we can do and provide specific pricing.
