Description
As the iconic treat that launched America's favorite candy company, tootsie roll, offers a perfectly balanced cocoa taste, lined with a subtle, fruit flavored undertone all incorporated into a delicious treat. The long lasting, delightfully chewable candy the number one-selling chewy chocolaty candy in America has been made with the same recipe since 1896, when Leo Hirschfield, an Austrian immigrant, opened a small candy shop in New York City, producing the first individually wrapped penny candy from a recipe he brought from Europe. Leo's very first tootsie roll in every one of the sixty four million tootsie rolls that tootsie produces each day and with at least one variety still selling for just a penny apiece, it's no wonder that tootsie roll has remained America's favorite candy.
