Five retro sweets to tempt yourself at the kiosk today

La Yapa: the sugar and fruit flavoring tablets still exist but they no longer carry animal data or are Stani branded. They returned in their current presentation thanks to the fact that in 2018 Mondelez sold them to the national capital group La Dolce, which relaunched them.

“Long” candies: whether they are the Sticks of the Jungle, today owned by Cadbury Stani Adams Argentina (which is a single company), or the Billiken, which also remained in the hands of La Dolce in the 2018 sale, this type of candy is perfect for keeping the busy mouth.

Dulce de leche candies: “Tatin” lollipops no longer exist, but the Luz Azul brand launched its “Azulandia candies” some time ago, which are nothing more than a manifestation of the old, beloved and remembered candy, which can also be bought in a box at one of its own stores.

Alfajor of foam: Alfajores made on a large scale may have diversified in recent times, but in the collective memory of a certain generation, Suchard will always be unbeatable. Unfortunately, its current state is not as delicious as it was in the past (is it due to competition from Milka and Cachafaz, among other brands, or because the memory of childhood spoils everything?)

El Jack: one of the FelFort products had to appear on this list, which is as arbitrary as it is reasonable. Felipe Fort’s company and his descendants have an arsenal of nostalgic snacks including chocolate mints, pralines (hello, Marroc) and umbrellas. The current Jack brings emoji stickers instead of “The Simpsons” dolls.
