Description
Pretty sure it came out in the early 1980's. They used to come in one big box and you could buy one sheet at a time. They were 8-1/2 by 11 sheets. It didnt really taste like much but it was cool. It was like a edible foam. Havent see it stores now. I really miss the corner store candy shops that no longer exist.

I totally remember this! I was Googling it because no one I talk to remembers it, either. I agree, it didn't taste like much, but it was the novelty of it that was the fun part! Size-wise, though I remember it in square sheets, maybe 6" X 6" or so. Glad I'm not alone in remembering it!

OMG! I remember Paper Candy! It was a white sheet and it melted in your mouth. It was a penny a sheet. I think they discontinued it because they were like acid or something..lol

I remember this from the penny candy store. It would cost a dime(I think) . It didn't taste like anything but it was still candy.

Thank God there are others who had the candy paper from back then. Ive spoken of it to countless people over the years and nobody knew what i was talking about. On allowance day, i would get 45 sheets and an Astro Pop!
