As they say you are not famous until they put your head on a PEZ dispenser!
You don't have to be a kid to enjoy PEZ candy as long as you're a kid at heart you will surely enjoy each and every designs they have from actually mostly my generations collection hehehe.
There’s something nostalgic about these familiar little treats that bring back memories of yesteryear with each and every bite. With great tasting candy flavors and collectible dispensers, PEZ is more than just a candy. It’s the pioneer of “interactive candy” that is both enjoyable to eat and fun to play with. PEZ Dispensers are a hot collectible for adults and children alike. New character dispensers are introduced regularly to reflect current trends.
Mickey Mouse, Winnie the Pooh and Hello Kitty have graced Pez dispenser heads and recently Anna and Elsa from the movie "Frozen" have also joined the line-up. Next year and over the coming years we expect to see more licenses and partners requesting for a PEZ head dispenser.
But would you believe that your favorite PEZ didn’t start out as the fruity candy we know and love today? It’s true! In fact, this is one candy that has a history that may surprise you.
Pez originated in Austria in 1927 and branded as a breath mint for adults. It’s first dispensers are plain boxes.However, in 1955 the firm started marketing its candy to children, leading to the creation of its celebrated series of character designs.
There's no mistaking the tilted heads that dispense pastel colored candy stacked in a narrow column. The PEZ candy dispenser is a pop culture icon.
