The Story of Chase Candy Company
Chase Candy Company is one of Missouri’s oldest and most famous candy makers, known especially for its classic treat Cherry Mash.
The company was founded in 1876 in St. Joseph, Missouri by George Washington Chase. At first, it was a small candy operation producing handmade sweets for local customers during a time when candy was still mostly made in small batches.
The invention of Cherry Mash
In the early 1900s, Chase Candy created its most famous product:
- 🍫 Cherry Mash (created around 1918)
- Made with a cherry-flavored center, chopped peanuts, and chocolate coating
- Became popular because it combined sweet, salty, and fruity flavors in one candy
Cherry Mash quickly became the company’s signature product and is still made today using the original-style recipe.
