The original lemon candy, since 1962

Lemonhead was invented in 1962 by Ferrara Candy Company founder Nello Ferrara — the name comes from a young member of the Ferrara family whose head reminded everyone of a lemon. Made using Ferrara's classic cold-panned process, each Lemonhead builds up layer by layer of sugar and real lemon juice concentrate around a tart centre, giving it that distinctive "pucker power" that's made it an American candy staple for over 60 years.
