Tootsie Rolls history

Leo Hirshfield was looking around for a name for the new confection he was making from a recipe he'd brought over from Europe in 1896. He choose the name of his 6 year old daughter, Clara, whose nickname was Tootsie.

Tootsie Roll ad from 1955Tootsie Rolls were the first penny candy to be individually wrapped in paper. They were one of the top choices of children who only had a few pennies to spend on satisfying a sweet tooth.

In the 1930s, the first soft-centered lollipops, Tootsie Pops, were sold. The hard candy on the outside covered the Tootsie Roll center.

During World War II, Tootsie Rolls were favored by soldiers because they could be kept in pockets and barracks bags without melting. They were also a great source of quick energy. 

In the late 1940s, Tootsie Rolls were advertised on the comic pages of many Sunday newspapers. The main cartoon character was Captain Tootsie who was a Superman-like hero who took kids on various adventures.

Tootsie Rolls memories... I remember when I was 9 or 10 years old walking with my 5 brothers picking up soda bottles to get the deposit money so we could go to the store and get the tootsie rolls we loved so much. This was a once a week thing for us and we loved doing it.

I am now 50 years old and when I see a Tootsie Roll, the image of me and my 5 brothers walking down the road with that red wagon comes to mind. This is one of the things that makes our family so close, it seems like such a little thing, but none of us will ever forget it. Thanks for the memories Tootsie Rolls! ~ Pam from Indiana

More memories... For years, since I was a kid, my grandmother would buy me tootsie rolls. She'd always have a dish of them out for company and a separate dish just for me. I'd end up fighting with my family over them (first come, first serve), but she still had a stash for me. When she passed away in 2003, I brought a dish of tootsie rolls for all to share in memory of her. ~ Jason from New York
