Notes
The Tootsie Roll (candy) The Tootsie Roll is an iconic treat that launched one of America's biggest candy company. It has a cocoa flavour, lined with a subtle, fruit-flavored undertone. The number one-selling chewy chocolate candy in America and it has been made with the same recipe since 1896, when Leo Hirshfield, an Austrian immigrant, opened a small candy shop in New York City, producing the first individually wrapped penny candy from a recipe he brought from Europe.
