Image
WORLD'S FAMOUS CANDY MAKES EVERYONE SMILE! Makati City, Philippines - It brings back memories when I see these familiar little treats. My kids and I love their candies and these cute little dispensers! PEZ is the pioneer of "interactive candies" and what I like about these enjoyable dispensers are the characters from my generation to present. You'll recognize the famous characters on a PEZ candy dispenser like Mickey Mouse, Winnie the Pooh and Hello Kitty. Sesame Street, Star Trek and more from the past are my favorites. The most recent they added are Anna and Elsa from the movie "Frozen" that most kids love. PEZ expect to see more licenses and partners requesting for a PEZ head dispenser that really exciting to wait! Did you know? PEZ did not start out as the fruity candy we know and love today.
