Wintergreen Creams

A Machine From 1939 Is Making Our Best Wintergreen Creams Yet In December 2025, our depositor died. That machine had one job: heat the cream to liquid, drop flat discs onto the belt, move on. Then, one day, it didn't. So Josh went to the backup. The backup happens to be a Friend machine that hasn't been manufactured since 1939. It works differently. Instead of heating the cream to liquid, it takes the cream after the cream beater has worked it for 30 minutes, after three large paddles have aligned every sugar crystal until the texture is completely smooth, when it's firm and cool and ready. A wire slices each piece to exactly the right height as it presses through. The result is a dome instead of a disc. Same recipe. Same wintergreen cream center made with simple ingredients. Same dark chocolate blend from the enrober. Same 7 to 10 days of resting while the centers soften back to that melt-in-your-mouth texture. Just a different shape from a machine that's been doing this longer than most of us have been alive. The old machine survived. The candy got better. We're calling them Wintergreen Creams now. Twelve pieces in a 5 oz box. No artificial dyes. Why You'll Love It Dark Chocolate Meets Refreshing Mint - Dark chocolate coats every piece. It holds up just long enough to let you know it means business. Then it gives way to cool, smooth wintergreen cream underneath. Smooth, Not Grainy - The cream center spends a full 30 minutes in the cream beater. Three paddles align the sugar crystals until the texture is completely smooth. Just clean, refreshing wintergreen that melts. The One People Come Back For - One customer's 98-year-old mother finished a box in three days and took the second one too. Another has been eating them for most of her life. Wintergreen is now a year-round favorite here at Stage Stop Candy, because people keep asking for it to stay! Handcrafted Start to Finish - Every step is hands-on: mixing the cream, running it through a press that predates World War II, coating it on the enrober, letting it rest until the centers reach the right texture.
