Main ingredientsPeanut butter

Peach Blossoms were a candy made by Necco at The New England Confectionery Co. in Revere, Massachusetts. They contained peanut butter wrapped in a crunchy shell. Contrary to their name and color, the flavor does not imitate that of a peach. They are made with sugar, corn syrup, ground peanuts, salt, glycerine, vanillin and artificial coloring.

The candy was one of the company's brands placed on auction in 2018,[1] but no potential buyer came forward.
