The Fascinating Origins of Your Favorite Halloween Candies

Lemonhead
Lemonhead is an American confection, created in 1962 by Ferrara Candy Company. Apparently, the name was inspired by Salvatore Ferrara's grandson, Salvatore II, who had a lemon-shaped head at birth.
The packaging states the candy is made with real lemon juice, and it was developed with the same technique used to create the company's Red Hots candy.
Today, you can either get the smaller lemonheads in box format or as larger, 3-cm singles.
