Fun Size 2- Paraffin Candy and Wax Fangs (...kind of‪)‬ Hallofiend: A Halloween Podcast

    • History

Thanks for checking out The 2nd installment of Fun Sized. Today we look into the history of Wax lips and Paraffin based candies. NOTE- As I say in the episode, the information is very scarce. I've outlined here more of a general history of Paraffin candy and the companies that made them. Unfortunately, iwas not clear to me in my research, when the infamous ruby red lips or more specifically the wax Fangs came to be. I'm sorry for that. Also note that in the episode, the lips and fangs are assumed a part of the wax novelty candies I describe. Amongst them were also the infamous candy coke bottles I'm sure you are familiar with for further examples of what exactly a wax novelty might include besides the Wax Lips/Fangs. Also forgive me for times I mess up speaking. But, I think you get what I'm saying within context haha
