Slap Stix Caramel Pop
|
In
1920, Howard B. Stark originated the first caramel and swirled nougat
confection which he called a Snirkle [see below].
Slap Stix is a caramel pop born out of this same confection in 1965.
Slap Stix pops are caramel swirled with vanilla, cherry and
banana nougat.
It’s the same great tasting caramel lollipop you enjoyed in the
60s and is made by the Stark Candy Company which is now a division of Necco. |
The Stark Candy Company has its roots in a caramel
and vanilla-swirled nougat that Howard B. Stark released in 1920 and
called a "Snirkle."
Mr.
Stark founded the Howard B. Stark Company in 1939 after buying the equipment of
the American Candy Company of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He continued to
produce Snirkles while adding other products to his confectionery line.
In
1975, The York Caramel Co. was purchased and renamed York Candy Kitchens.
In
1985, Stark purchased the manufacturer of the Mary Jane product family
from the Charles N. Miller Company of Watertown, Massachusetts. Three
years later, in 1988, William F. Stark (grandson of Howard B.) sold the company
and the name was changed to Stark Candy Company.
The
New England Confectionery Company (NECCO)
purchased the Stark Candy Company in 1990. |
