Peach Blossoms were a candy made by Necco at The New England Confectionery Co. in Revere, Massachusetts. They contained peanut butter wrapped in a crunchy shell. Contrary to their name and color, the flavor did not imitate that of a peach. They were made with sugar, corn syrup, ground peanuts, salt, glycerine, vanillin and artificial coloring.
Necco dated its origins to Chase and Company, a company founded by brothers Oliver R. and Silas Edwin Chase in 1847. [5] Having previously invented and patented the first American candy machine, [4] the Chase brothers continued to design and create machinery that made assortments of candies, such as their popular sugar wafers.
First made in 1905 by Necco, they stuck around until 2018, when Necco closed its doors. Though Spangler Candy Company saved the company’s eponymous Necco Wafers , Peach Blossoms weren’t as lucky.
