Testimonials

  • I love the orange ones and my husband loves the sour apple ones. It was part of our courtship for me to give him Dum-Dums every day.
  • Thank you for one of the simple things in life to enjoy! How many of us have had a traumatic experience lessened (i.e. kids’ shots) by a simple lollipop! Take the wrapper off and put a smile on a kid’s face.
  • Dum dums are toddler GOLD.

Dum-Dums are made from a mixture of sugar and corn syrup. After it is cooked, it is placed in a large mixer and the color and flavor are added. After these ingredients are mixed together, the batch of candy moves through a batch roller and press which forms the head of the Dum-Dum and inserts the stick. After the candy cools, it is wrapped and sent by a conveyor belt to an area where it is packaged for shipment.
