Jujyfruits history

Jujubes were first produced some time before 1920. The jujube is an edible berry that grows in the tropics. But the name of the berry has nothing to do with the make-up of the candy, which is more likely related to one of the basic ingredients of both Jujubes and Jujyfruits, ju-ju gum. 

Jujyfruits were first made in 1920. Each box contains an assortment of fruit-shaped candy pieces. Both were originally made by the Heide Company which was started by German immigrant, Henry Heide in 1869. Today they are made by the Hershey Company.

Other candies originally made by Heide are Red Hot Dollars, Mexican Hats and Chocolate Babies.

Jujubes Jujyfruits

Jujyfruits memories... From the time I can remember going to the show with my brother most every Saturday in Long Beach, Ca. in the early 1940's I would buy Jujubes & he would buy Jujyfruits. We would try to make them last until the movie was over. It never happened even if we put only 1 or 2 in our mouth at one time.

I think the Jujubes & Jujyfruits were 5 cents a box so if we had 15 cents after paying 50 cents each to get into the show we bought a third box of Jujubes or Jujyfruits and shared. Those were truly the good old days. ~ Douglas from California


I remember I thought the best candy was Jujyfruits. Because I would buy a box or two and open them and take all the green out. And save them for last because you save the best for last. I loved the mint taste. Now the green ones are a lime flavor. They are good but I miss that good old mint flavor. Thank you for letting me share this with all of you. ~ Kevin from Pennsylvania


I had no idea these candies have been made so long, but my memory takes place growing up in the 90's. My crazy cousin liked the tooth fairy so much he would try to lose teeth even before they started to wiggle. He would sit and chew Jujyfruits all of the time until they did the job. He probably wanted the tooth fairy money to buy more candy. I can't look at a box without laughing about him trying to loosen his teeth, although it was a little gross.

Even before we could read or lose teeth, I still remember being able to recognize the big yellow box. It seemed endless as we would keep picking out the different colored fruits. Of course, the green ones were always the best. ~ Vanessa from Illinois
