I love tracking down the oddball candy wrapper you can’t see anywhere else and sharing it here on the site.<\/p>\n

With that in mind, today is a good day, bcause today I get to share a wrapper for a treat put out in the 1990’s by Cadbury’s Canadian branch — Sour Beaner.\u00a0\u00a0 Described as “Sour Jellybeans in Marshmallowy Nougat Covered in a Chocolatey Coating” – it’s pretty weird and pretty awesome.\u00a0 It’s definitely something to behold.<\/p>\n

Today’s wrapper is yet another CollectingCandy.com Exclusive – you won’t find an image of this one anywhere else on the internet (I checked!).\u00a0 So let’s get right to the fun – here’s the wrapper:<\/p>\n

Canada – Cadbury – Sour Beaner – candy bar wrapper – 1990’s<\/p><\/div>\n

I gotta say, I love this Sour Beaner wrapper.\u00a0 From the nutty-looking sour jellybean mascot to the lively logo – it’s a great one.\u00a0 Check out the purple nougat that this bar contained – Cadbury was definitely shooting for the wild\/weird-factor here, and they hit it!<\/p>\n

Seeing sour jellybeans added to a bar makes me immediately think of Cadbury’s Wriggler, which I covered here earlier.<\/a><\/p>\n

The 1990’s were definitely an era of fun experimentation for Cadbury, and I give them many kudos for what they managed to put to market.\u00a0\u00a0 The period certainly provided a couple wild wrappers to find and collect.<\/p>\n

And that’s all for today’s post.\u00a0 See you next time!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
