The Best Nostalgic Candy Gift to Send This National Candy Month
Share
National Candy Month lands every June, and it's a natural occasion to send something to someone you're thinking about. Idaho Candy Company has been making classic bars in Boise since 1901, and they ship nationwide from the same factory they've been using since 1909.
If you're looking for a candy gift with real history behind it, here's where to start.
The Variety Pack
The most complete Idaho Candy gift you can send. The Variety Pack comes in a full-color gift box and includes 5 Idaho Spud Bars, 3 Old Faithful Bars, 3 Cherry Cocktail Bars, 3 Huckleberry Gems, and 1 lb of bite-sized Owyhee Butter Toffee. It covers every flavor profile in the Idaho Candy lineup and arrives ready to give — no wrapping required.
The Mixed Candy Bar Pack
For a focused candy bar experience, the Mixed Candy Bar Pack delivers 3 of each bar in the core Idaho Candy lineup. A great option for first-timers who want to try everything, or longtime fans who want a solid supply of their favorites.
Owyhee Butter Toffee
Owyhee Butter Toffee stands on its own as a gift. Buttery, crunchy, and rich, it's named after the historic Owyhee mountain range in southwestern Idaho and has been a regional favorite for decades. The 1 lb box makes a generous standalone gift for anyone who appreciates a classic toffee.
Why Idaho Candy Makes Such a Good Gift
Candy is personal in a way that most gifts aren't. The right bar connects to a specific memory — a grandparent's house, a road trip through Idaho, a childhood corner store. Research published by the American Psychological Association has found that nostalgic experiences increase feelings of warmth and social connectedness.

For anyone with ties to Idaho or the Pacific Northwest, Idaho Candy bars carry that kind of weight. For anyone discovering them for the first time, receiving one is its own kind of memorable.
