  • 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.

    Here's a list of choices of candy products made by members of the Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers and Grain Millers International Union (BCTGM); snack foods by members of the United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW); or fruit and nuts from members of the United Farm Workers of America (UFW). As with a lot of traditionally union-made products, more are being cross-produced (union-non-union; US-Mexico), so be sure to read labels to ensure that your candy is union-made in the United States.

  • 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.

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.
