Lollipops have delighted generations of sweet tooths, ever delectable and sweet. And it's likely they've been doing this for centuries. However, no one knows how old the lollipop is. In honey, preserved nuts and berries may have preserved nuts and berries from prehistoric times. lollipops appeared much later in 16th century Europe as sugar became abundant, as sugar became more popular, lollipops appeared much later.

lollipops were sold in various forms in the United States, confectionaries, and medicine stores as early as the 1860s. However, George Smith made this sweet treat an official 20th-century tale in 1908. Smith deserves praise for inventing the modern style lollipop. Smith registered the name in 1931, which he claims came from his favorite racing horse, Lolly Pops.

The Lollipops range in size. For variety, the smaller candies can be purchased by the bagful. Customers, as well as retailers, barbershops, and vendors at parades, give the sweet treat to customers. Specialty candy stores make giant lollipops in a variety of bright colors, shapes, and sizes. While these lollipops are tempting, they can be heavy and often are more than we can handle.
