Since 1902, the Necco candy company has been helping us express our adoration for one another with their Sweethearts conversation candies.

The familiar sugary confection has been used in countless and creative ways over the years. I particularly like them in the floral centerpiece above. Maybe I’ll attempt to pull one together for this weekend.
Do you love these tiny heart treats too? Share with us the types of ways you have used them. Did you propose to someone with the “Marry Me” heart? How about just letting them know you are thinking of them with a little “Hello”?
Here are a few more sweet ideas.
- Did you know?
- A little dab will do ya’!
- Pretty little craft.
- Again with the cake pops, yum! I wrote about them here.
- How about a Juicy cupcake?
- A little cake swag.
Share the love today and…
Live Well
I saw one just last week that said “Tweet Me”. They ditched all the original sayings from 1860 and replaced them last year with new sayings that the public choose. I’m kind of sad about that. I don’t really like to eat them, but I love things with such a long and consistent history. They are just so cute!
