Necco Dispute Clears Hurdle in Bankrtuptcy Court
CHESTO MEANS BUSINESS Necco dispute clears hurdle in bankruptcy court By Jon Chesto Globe Staff, July 24, 2019, 8:25 p.m. The NECCO factory in Revere. (ARAM BOGHOSIAN FOR THE BOSTON GLOBE) The Sky Bar, Sweethearts, and Candy Buttons all have new owners, as does the shuttered Necco factory in Revere that had once churned out a sea of confections that would make Willy Wonka proud. But the roughly $10 million left over from the sale of Greater Boston’s last great candy maker? That remains untouched amid a dispute between a bankruptcy trustee and Necco’s former parent company. The trustee, Harold Murphy, just won a significant victory in US bankruptcy court in Boston. Judge Melvin Hoffman essentially denied nearly every effort by Necco’s former parent firm, Ares Capital, to dismiss a case brought by Murphy. Ares had acquired a previous private-equity owner of Necco, ACAS. The case now moves forward, with a trial expected next year. Murphy has sued Ares, claiming the investment firm and its predecessor piled debt onto the Necco business while running the once massive candy empire into the ground. Murphy wants Necco’s former suppliers and other unsecured creditors to be fully reimbursed for the bills left unpaid by the candy company’s demise last year, a figure that totals at least $20 million. Murphy is trying to persuade the judge to knock Ares from its position as first in line for the proceeds from the Necco sale. (Ares was a secured creditor as well as the former owner.) He also claims that ACAS enriched itself from Necco over the years, even as the candy business bled tens of millions.

The Sky Bar's Triumphant Return
DEVRA FIRST The Sky Bar’s triumphant return How an iconic candy was almost lost and then, unexpectedly, saved By Devra First Globe Staff,Updated November 13, 2019, 6:00 a.m. Sky Bars are being made again locally, thanks to Louise Mawhinney who bought new equipment and the Sky Bar name from Necco when it closed. They're made at a new storefront location on Boston Post Road in Sudbury. JOHN TLUMACKI/GLOBE STAFF SUDBURY — All of this might have been lost. The futuristic red logo, shooting across the bright yellow background. The impeccable aesthetics, a bar of chocolate divided into four sections, each sloping downward toward the next, etched in a fanlike pattern. The you-can-have-it-all gratification of one candy with a quartet of fillings: caramel, vanilla, peanut, fudge. New England Confectionery Co.'s Sky Bar: born 1938, defunct 2018, the year Necco closed, putting all of its brands up for auction. Most went to experienced operators. Sweethearts Candies and Necco Wafers were purchased by the century-old Spangler Candy Company, perhaps best known for its tangerine-colored, mysteriously banana-flavored Circus Peanuts. Boyer Candy Company (Mallo Cups), started during the Great Depression, snapped up Clark Bars. But Sky Bar? Sky Bar became the property of Louise Mawhinney, a former biotech executive originally from Scotland who runs an eclectic gourmet gift shop called Duck Soup in Sudbury, Mass. She had never made candy before, but a customer told her about the auction and she just couldn’t let Sky Bar disappear. Louise Mawhinney and her son, Frank Mawhinney, make Sky Bars at their storefront location on Boston Post Road in Sudbury.

Lifesaver Gummies Gluten Free
Lifesaver gummies gluten free Continue Over the past few days I've been working on some research and email companies to try to bring you the best list of gluten candy that I can. This is by no means complete. What I mean is, it doesn't contain all the candy out there that's gluten free. If that were the case, it probably would have been as long as the book! I didn't include any of the specialty candy brands that only work with gluten-free candy, but decided to focus on the fact that normal candy is safe. This is because it is likely that you and your children will come into contact with these basic way candies more often than that of nature.5 million. As always, please make sure to check the labels. While all this information is current, it does not guarantee that manufacturers will not change their recipes or production processes. Tic Tacs, according to the company, is gluten-free. They said none of their items contained gluten containing non-gradiants. For more information, you can contact the manufacturer of Tic Tacs, Ferrero at 732-764-9300. Jelly belly jelly beans are considered company to be gluten-free. All their jelly beans, in all tastes are safe. However, sometimes Jelly Belly will pack its items as a mixed set that may contain malt milk balls, or other candies that are not safe. Always make sure to check the packaging... As long as its just jelly beans, you are free and clear. You can contact Jelly Belly at 800-522-3267.

Gluten Free Candy List “ROCK”TOBER 2007
Gluten Free Candy List “ROCK”TOBER 2007 Disclaimer: This list is for reference only and the user should contact manufacturers directly. It is a guideline and the user accepts full responsibility for use of it. At the time of it’s posting, it is believed to be accurate with current gluten-free information. As a gluten-free consumer, you are responsible for making your own food selections. I am not a medical expert; I’m a mom of a Celiac first grader who is always on a quest for gluten-free knowledge. Notes: Please beware of candy that is not in its “normal shape.” Often times, that means the ingredients are different, and could very well contain gluten. Bags of mixed treats that do have gluten containing treats that touch each other should be discarded due to cross-contamination. If there is a treat that may not be listed on here, do not be alarmed… just check with the manufacturer. I couldn’t get them all on here and I’m sure there are some I have forgotten or overlooked. Thanks: I would like to thank all of the people who have shared information to make this list possible… including several ROCK leaders (Sue & Elissa of NJ ROCK, Carrie of Reno ROCK, Melissa of TampaBay ROCK, Becky of San Diego ROCK) who consistently share their information with me and our ROCK Northern Virginia chapter. I’d also like to thank Lindsay Amadeo of Iowa (who maintains a wonderful GF commercial product listing which includes many tricks and treats). This year we also had the help of Pat Mazza Vlamis.
