History of Clear Toy Candy

German immigrants are credited with bringing clear toy candy to America. They originally settled in Pennsylvania. Clear toy recipes are traced back as early as 1772. This hard candy was originally called 'barley candy' because early candy makers used the cheaper and more readily available barley sugar instead of imported cane sugar. However in 1818, cane sugar became more accessible. With this, barley sugar would soon lose it's popularity. The literal name 'clear toy' was penned because of the candy's likeness to minature people, animals, and other images. That is how the 'toy' was created. These toys acquired their 'clear' namesake from the clarity of the product. Most of the original molds were produced by Thomas Mills & Brothers (circa 1864) and V. Clad & Sons (circa 1863). They were made from a composition metal shaped from brass. Reproduction molds composed of cast-iron and aluminum are scarcely produced today. These molds lack the definition and detail of their predecessors. Sadly, many of today's clear toy is made from automated machines. These imitations are often only two sided in dimension and lack the quality and depth of the originals.
