Other styles were formerly produced such as lozenges, postcards, horseshoes, watches, and baseballs. The heart-shaped conversation candies to be called Sweethearts got their start in 1901. The candy was often used for weddings since the candies had witty saying such as: "Married in pink, he will take a drink", "Married in White, you have chosen right", and "Married in Satin, Love will not be lasting". He designed a machine that was able to press on the candy similar to a stamp. ĭaniel Chase, Oliver's brother, began printing sayings on the candy in 1866. Chase invented a machine in 1847 to cut lozenges from wafer candy, similar to Necco Wafers, and started a candy factory. A similar type of candy is sold in the UK under the name Love Hearts while similar in formulation to Sweethearts, Love Hearts are round, with the heart design and message embossed on their surface. Similar products are available from Brach's and other companies. Necco manufactured nearly 8 billion Sweethearts per year. They were also previously made by the Stark Candy Company. Sweethearts were made by the New England Confectionery Company, or Necco, before being purchased by the Spangler Candy Company in 2018. Each heart is printed with a message such as "Be Mine", "Kiss Me", "Call Me", "Let's Get Busy", or "Miss You".
Sweethearts (also known as conversation hearts) are small heart-shaped sugar candies sold around Valentine's Day. For the similar British confectionery, see Love Hearts.
