The New England Confectionery Company ( aka NECCO ). Maker of NECCO wafers, Clark bars, Mary Janes, the Skybar !
We are fans. Even though the Skybar is not quite so sublime as I remember it from my distant childhood, the Clark bar still gives the Butterfinger a run for it's money. It somehow seems slightly more adult in taste and texture.
Imagine our delight as we tooled out of Boston heading for Maine when we discovered, right in front of us, the NECCO factory. We had known it was somewhere in the area, but we hadn't planned to just drive right by it. We were late & tired, so Snackette dutifully marked it down in the ASF Journal, for the return trip. Unfortuntely, the Candy Shoppe is closed on Sundays, the day we swung back by and took pictures.
