Link: Does anyone remember these candies?
check out this website with lots of the old time candy for sale. Some of these bring back a lot of memories.

they're like little "foam" saucers with tiny little candies inside.

Chelle weren't those the ones that were like styrofoam??
I remember them they were awful!
Now I really miss Sugar Daddy's.
On the street where I grew up there was a little corner store. The man that owned it was a GROUCH! But we could go with a quarter and get an overflowing bag (small brown paper bag) full of penny candy and 2 for a penny. Sugar Daddy's were a nickle. I think popscicles were 3 cents, creamscicles and fudgescicles were a nickle. and for a 15 cents you could get a kite and a ball of string! I'm showing my age aren't I??
Oh, and the bubble gum that was like the one you get with baseball cards had those lick-em stick-em tatoos!

Chelle, I don't remember the ones you've shown but I do remember candy cigarettes and the candy lips. They were the funniest looking candies but us kids loved them.
The candy cigarettes I remember pretending we were smoking and my parents hated us getting those.
Great site.

I remember just about all of them. My favorite was the wax lips. They use to have wax coke bottles too. There were only a few that I didn't remember.
