Recipe Introduction
Jelly candies (sugar and flavored water) have been putting smiles on the faces of
kids for centuries - starting with the Romans. When penny candy was popular during
the 1800's, gumdrops and jelly beans were the biggest sellers - and nothing replaced
them in popularity until people fell in love with the chocolate bar. Blueberry jelly
beans were invented so President Reagan could serve red, white and blue jelly beans
at his inaugural ball.
