Reed's Sour Cherry Candy Rolls

[harlanturk]

Does anyone know where to find/purchase "REEDS' SOUR CHERRY CANDY ROLLS"?

The Chicago based The Reed Candy Company was once bought out by Amurol Confections (Big League Chew, Bubble Tape), which was then aquired by Wrigley's.

By Googling the name of the candy, I discovered you may be out of luck.

According to this website the company has stopped making them. The Old Time Candy website has them listed on their "Discontinued" page.

From the Google search results, there were some nostalgia candy websites selling gift baskets containing something generically called "Reeds Candy Rolls" which could be anything from butterscotch, root beer, etc. But they weren't selling the individual rolls.

You may have to email those nostalgia candy websites individually to see if they sell the specific flavor you're looking for.

Good luck.

Thanks Toliver. Yeah, they were discontinued at the beginning of 2006. Anyone stockpile, have a stash? Have contacted a few outposts such as Hometown Favorites, but they were out.
