The maker story
The Story Behind Tootsie Roll Industries.
The story behind the name
Chewy Bars and Colorful Candy Squares
Tootsie’s family of brands includes Charleston Chew and Charms. Charleston Chew has been a familiar American candy since 1922, with chewy nougat and a chocolaty coating. Charms brings a different counter experience through colorful hard candies. These two names show how a candy collection can hold both a slow, chewy treat and a small piece of brightly flavored sweetness.
