In 1921, Fred Amend first brought Chuckles to kids faces. These irresistible jelly candies are coated with a light layer of sugar and come in cherry, lemon, lime, orange and licorice. No wonder theyre so successful. So much has changed since the first Ferrara candy rolled off the line and into stores in 1908. But the same creativity and innovation that fed those early years remains at the heart of our company. In fact, its what has made us the number one non-chocolate candy manufacturer in the U.S. Weve got a sweet history but an even richer opportunity for future growth and success is right at our doorstep. Our mission is to take the brands that have been loved for generations to the next level. In 2012, we brought together brands like Trolli, Brachs, Black Forest, Now & Later, Chuckles, and Lemonhead. Were continuously innovating to bring the best-tasting, highest-quality confections to the marketplace.
