National Jelly Bean Day
I always kept a jar of jelly beans on my kitchen counter, as my
granddaughter Alex loved them. That is where she got the nickname JellyBean.
National Jelly Bean Day is a time to enjoy gobs and gobs of jelly beans.
Anyone who loves jelly beans, knows they are not just for Easter. Sure, they are
very popular at Easter. But, they are also enjoyed year round. The flavors are
limited only by the imagination of candy makers. If you've never enjoyed the
multitude of flavors in a box of gourmet jelly beans, the we suggest you head
right out to the store and buy some.
Jelly beans date back to at least the 1860's. Advertisements promoted
sending jelly beans to Union troops fighting in the Civil War. The original
candy maker is unknown.
Here is the history of Jelly Bellys ... first sold at my favorite ice cream
store, Fosselman's, in Alhambra.
