Mike and Ike
Mike and Ike candies were created in 1940 by Just Born in the USA. Mike and Ike candies have become a staple in movie theaters, candy aisles, and nostalgic snack collections across the U.S ever since. The exact origin of the name "Mike and Ike" remains a sweet mystery. Theories range from a 1930s comic strip called Mike and Ike to a pair of circus performers, nicknamed Mike and Ike. The original Mike and Ike candies feature five fruity flavours: Cherry, Lemon, Lime, Orange, and Strawberry. Over the years, the brand has expanded its lineup to include a variety of flavour assortments like Tropical Typhoon, Berry Blast and Mega Mix. The range now includes seasonal and limited edition varieties too, but one things for certain no matter what the innovation, you can be guaranteed it will have the chewy texture, strong fruity flavour and shape synonmous with Mike and Ike.
