Since its debut in 1962, Lemonhead has been a beloved candy, delighting taste buds with its distinctive sweet and sour lemon flavour. Crafted by the Ferrara Candy Company, Lemonhead offers a unique confectionery experience that has stood the test of time.
The inception of Lemonhead is as intriguing as its flavour. Nello Ferrara, inspired by his newborn son's lemon-shaped head, created this iconic candy. Utilizing the cold-panning process—a method where sugar and flavours are layered until the desired size is achieved—Ferrara crafted a candy that perfectly balances a sweet outer shell with a tangy core.
Each Lemonhead candy is a small, round treat that starts with a sweet, hard candy exterior, leading to a tart, soft shell, and culminating in a hard candy core. This progression of textures and flavours offers a delightful journey for the palate, making it a favourite among candy enthusiasts.
Over the years, the Lemonhead brand has expanded to include a variety of flavours and forms. From Chewy Lemonheads to Lemonhead Gummies, there's a version to satisfy every candy lover's craving. These innovations ensure that the Lemonhead legacy continues to thrive, appealing to both long-time fans and new generations.
