On this week’s episode, host Caryn Antonini travels to the PEZ Candy Manufacturing Facility and Visitor Center in Orange, CT to speak with guest, Shawn Peterson, author, historian and Project Manager at PEZ Candy. Prior to working at PEZ, Shawn authored Collector’s Guides to PEZ and conceived of the idea of the PEZ Visitor’s Center, which features a collection of history, trivia and memorabilia related to one of the world’s most iconic candies. Shawn is also the author of PEZ From Austrian Invention to American Icon, a comprehensive history of the company which began in 1927. Pez Candy’s beautiful history began in Austria as a peppermint and made its way here to the U.S. after world war 2. It has become an American classic and a staple of childhood memories around the globe.
