The Twizzlers candy began its journey in a confectionery company in 1845. This iconic licorice candy has acquired generations of fans, including astronaut Neil Armstrong, who said while on the moon: “It would be appropriate for me to eat Twizzlers now.” The Hershey Company welcomed Twizzlers to the family in 1977, and gave candy lovers a new and brave world of flavors to enjoy. Strawberry is the most popular flavor and accounts for 70% of Twizzlers’ annual production. And of course, it is available in the country along with other flavors and types.
