Pearson's Candy

For more than a century, Pearson’s has been dedicated to bringing people together to enjoy the finest candies made from the most wholesome ingredients. In 1909, Edward Pearson formed a confectionary distribution firm in Minneapolis, with help from his four brothers. The Pearson’s candy legacy was born. In 1912, the Nut Goodie was created, and sold to hungry customers at a cost of 5 cents each. At the height of the Roaring ‘20s, the Nut Goodie's one of a kind indulgence helped keep the good times rolling. It went on to become their most popular treat, and is still a favorite today. 

Amid the Great Depression, they introduced Pearson’s Salted Nut Roll, which was perfectly positioned for both palate and pocketbook. Copycats tried, but no one else could match the roll’s incredible crunch or salty-sweet flavor. Their focus on delivering high-quality, delicious products will make sure Pearson’s candies are available for generations to come.
