where to find Fun Retro Candy and Candy Jars

What does Candy mean to you? For me it conjures up sweetness, a sweet little reward. Nostalgia of childhood days, saving up pennies for a milk bottle or a redskin at the train station. Going in the confectioners an picking out your favourites..a personalised ready mix! Boiled sweets at Christmas. Secret stashes post Halloween!. As a child it seemed the sugar just disappeared with the swings of the jump rope and long days roaming on the push bike...as an adult, well to be eaten sparingly, but enjoyed just as much. I have selected an outrageous array of fun retro candy for you to gaze upon and if irresistible to buy. Zazzle now has a great range of A gorgeous Candy Jars available and I have selected a gallery of my favourite designs.
I have found the best fun, nostalgic retro candy, with gift baskets of 40's candy, 50's candy, 60's candy, 70's candy, and 80's candy! These Candy Gift baskets make great corporate gifts as well as great gifts for Grandma and Grandpa, imagine giving them candy treats from their childhoods!
I also list where you can buy candy floss machines to make your own..imagine how popular you would be at your school fair!
I hope you enjoy!

    what a great idea I just wish they had this in Australia. A lot of the lollies in the retro/old jars are unknown to us in Australia. Lovely lens but not good to view after tea when you are trying to resist desert lol :)
