Chewy vanilla nougat wrapped in a smooth, chocolaty coating makes Charleston Chew a candy-counter classic. Introduced in 1922 and named for the Charleston dance, it carries a little Jazz Age spirit in every wrapper. Enjoy its stretchy chew at room temperature, or freeze it for a firmer bite that snaps into pieces.

Why We Chose It

There’s a Reason It’s Here.

Charleston Chew connects two memorable parts of Americana: the candy counter and the dance floor. Its 1920s origins and familiar freeze-and-snap ritual give shoppers a story they can enjoy as well as share.
