Hot Weather Warning: If you are more than a two day ship from OH, I do not recommend you purchasing this item when temperatures exceed 71 degrees. Be certain you have someone available for your delivery so the candy does not sit in the hot sun. Melted candy can not be guaranteed. We do our best to protect your candy, but can not control what happens in heat in excess of 70 degrees.
The filberts (hazelnuts) are panned in copper kettles until the whole nut is encased in crystallized sugar, a time-consuming process that takes days, but one we're sure you'll find well worth the effort. Whether you prefer to let these sweet treats slowly melt in your mouth until you get to the filbert nut or simply bite right into them, you won't be able to resist them. 1lb. bag contains approx. 38 candies.

Old-time “Mothballs”
These wonderful cream filberts were my favorites as a child. I was thrilled to find them at Boyd’s! This is a re-order for me because the first one was wonderful. I am 76 years old, so I started eating these candies a long time ago - and these are perfect. They certainly match my memory.
