Mary Jane (candy)

Mary Jane Candies

Mary Jane is a Peanut Butter and Molasses flavored taffy-type candy with peanut butter in the center. Originally made in 1914 by The Charles N. Miller Co., and later by Stark Candy Co.,[1] it is now manufactured by Necco.[1] Charles Miller named them after his favorite aunt, Mary Jane, and the candy has used the same "little girl" illustration on the wrappers since its inception.[2]
