They’re back! To be honest, I thought they were still around. These are made by a new company, 1908 Candy Co., and come in resealable pouches instead of boxes. The 1908 represents the year the Ferrera Pan Candy Company, the original maker of these, was started. (Spotted by Josh G at Walgreens.)

They came back in movie theater boxes last year – but they weren’t chewy. These were pretty fantastic!
Thanks Josh! Glad to be back
These candies and Lemonheads were my childhood. I can’t wait to pick some up!
You must’ve had a great childhood. Can’t wait for you to try em’
Why does the apple have a sauce pan on his head?!
Because its an Apple version of Johnny Appleseed.
Chris knows whats up ^
I don’t know if I’m more excited about seeing Alexander the Grape back again, or the interaction with the brand going on above!
Either way, it worked and I’m going to Walgreens today to find some! 🙂
As long as your excited, I’m excited. See ya there, Maura.
Thanks for the share @theimpulsivebuy. We’re 1908 Candy now, and can be found in select Walgreens around the country. We’ll be waiting for ya in the candy aisle.
Loving the revival! Any hope for Fruit Cocktail Imperials in the not-too-distant future?
That’s a Ferrera question, but just keep on the lookout for some more of my comrades in the near future. How are ya with watermelon and cherry?
The grape heads in the box are just grape covered lemon heads and they are not good. The ones in the bag shown here are delicious.
Where can I buy them?
Thx
I want Cherry Clan back! Though the packaging will need a serious update…
Keep your eyes peeled Queen of Caffeiene ?
I hate the ones in the box that are like lemon heads and taste like lemon heads. The chewy ones in the bag are delicious. Are they still being made and where can I buy them??
