I’ve often pointed out that where candy packaging is concerned sometimes tracking down a specific piece can be much like archaeology. Oftentimes you start without any hard evidence that a piece existed at all. Sometimes that first evidence is a photo or the mention of the product on a list or ad. In some instances the path to discovery can take a good deal of time, a good deal of luck, or both.
Such was the case with the subject of today’s post; a pair of holiday-themed Willy Wonka candy boxes from the early 1990’s that I recently had the pleasure of uncovering.
Every year there are always new candy packages and products released for the Christmas holiday season. One brand new item that I found particularly striking from the packaging standpoint was Hershey’s Candy Cane bar.
Today we’re kicking off our 2013 Twelve Days of Christmas series with a look at some new gingerbread-flavored candy.
