Sweethearts Won't Be on Sale This Valentine's Day

A piece of our childhood just died.

For the first Valentine's Day since 1901, conversation hearts will NOT be on sale this year.

They were made by Necco, which went out of business last July.

The Spangler Candy Company acquired the rights to make the hearts, but they weren't able to get production set up for this year.

Spangler says they WILL be selling them for Valentine's Day 2020.

They were the number one Valentine's Day candy. Before they went under, Necco was pumping out eight billion of the hearts a year.
