Now and Later Mixed Fruit Chew Candy, 60 oz Resealable Jar — Individually Wrapped, Long-Lasting

Now and Later Original Mix is a 60-ounce jar of individually wrapped, long-lasting fruit chew candies featuring strawberry, apple, banana, cherry, grape and watermelon flavors.

Packed in a resealable 60 oz jar, this assortment delivers bold, fruit-forward flavor with a signature chew that starts firm and softens slowly, making each piece last longer than a typical candy. Made in the tradition of the brand that began as a penny candy in Brooklyn, these bite-sized chews are ideal for sharing, snacking, or keeping on hand at the office, register, or pantry. The individually wrapped pieces are grouped in small 4-count slugs for convenient portioning and freshness.

What makes the texture of Now and Later different from other fruit chews?

The Original formula is designed to begin with a firmer bite and gradually become chewy as you enjoy it, creating a layered eating experience rather than an immediate melt. This progression is intentional: the outer firmness gives a satisfying initial bite while the interior texture becomes pliable and long-lasting.

• Starts firm, softens to a chew — extended flavor release
• Consistent texture across each individually wrapped piece
• Small, bite-sized chews for controlled enjoyment
• Packaged in 4-count slugs to keep pieces fresh

Which fruit flavors are included in the Original Mix jar?

This mixed jar contains six classic fruit varieties: strawberry, apple, banana, cherry, grape, and watermelon. Each flavor is distinctly formulated so you can identify and enjoy them individually, or mix pieces for a custom flavor sequence.

• Strawberry — bright and sweet
• Apple — crisp and slightly tart
• Banana — soft and creamy undertone
• Cherry, grape, watermelon — bold, familiar fruit profiles

How is this product packaged and where does it work best?

The 60-ounce jar is resealable and filled with individually wrapped pieces grouped in small slugs for easy distribution. Its size and packaging make it practical for high-traffic environments as well as home use—ideal for candy dishes, checkout counters, break rooms, or candy lovers who want a long-lasting supply.

• Resealable 60 oz jar for freshness and storage
• Individually wrapped pieces for hygiene and sharing
• 4-count slug packaging for portion control and quick access
• Convenient for retail, events, offices, or at-home snacks

How long will the chews stay fresh and how should I store them?

Stored in the resealable jar away from heat and direct sunlight, these candies retain their texture and flavor for the duration of the printed shelf life. Keep the lid closed between uses and store at room temperature to avoid softening or stickiness from excessive heat.

• Keep jar sealed when not in use to preserve freshness
• Store at room temperature, avoid heat and humidity
• Individually wrapped pieces help maintain flavor until opened

Who is this for: Now and Later Original Mix in a 60-ounce jar suits anyone who enjoys bold, long-lasting fruit chews: retailers and event planners needing a shareable candy supply, parents wanting a shelf-stable snack, office managers stocking break rooms, or candy fans who prefer a chew that offers a gradual texture change and strong fruit flavors. It’s especially useful where individually wrapped servings and durable packaging matter.
