Before being made obsolete by the superior disc-shaped gramophone record system, music was recorded and reproduced on wax cylinders containing special grooves. Invented in 1877, Thomas Edison’s phonograph cylinder allowed listeners to enjoy about 100 spins of a particular piece of music on these cylinders before the "record" wore down and the wax had to be smoothed over and imprinted with new music-playing grooves. Imagine carting boxes of cylinders around in order to listen to your favorite tunes instead of an iPod! Technology has come a long way since then, but we’re delighted to see that now cylinders can be enjoyed in a more practical and efficient way: as a delicious fruity cherry candy snack. These uniquely shaped confections transmit bold cherry flavor to your taste buds via thick red and white candy stripes, and each capsule of sweetness makes a strong impression on all your senses with just one gander, whiff, lick and crunch. Long-lasting hard candy goodness is kept fresh with individual wrappers, making these adorably tasty treats perfect when kept in a bowl for guests to sample. You’ll see smiles all around when you have these Sassy Cylinders on hand!
There are approximately 60 pieces per pound.
