Conversation Hearts Candy Sayings: Then And Now
Dec 29th 2021
Conversation Hearts Candy has been sending smiles to our lips since 1902 when the delightful sayings first were produced by the candy manufacturer Necco. Although the candy's formula has remained fairly consistent throughout the years, the sayings on conversation hearts candy have changed and evolved over the years. Come along with us on a love-filled journey of conversation hearts candy sayings over the last few years!
2005
Love should feel fun and whimsical, and Necco adds just these traits into their conversation heart sayings. It seems as if almost every year of sayings revolves around a "theme", and for 2005, that theme was the game of love. Sayings include:
#1 FAN, DREAM TEAM, FIT FOR LOVE, LOVE LIFE, BE A SPORT, LOVE MY TEAM, CHEER ME ON, BE MY HERO, HEART OF GOLD, and ALL-STAR
2006
Before we discover love with a significant other, we learn how to love through our home and family. 2006 conversation hearts candy sayings embody this love, with sayings including:
ILU, HOUSE PARTY, HOME RUN CALL, HOME SWEET HOME, GO HOME, HOME SOON, and HOMESICK
2007
Aw, remember those initial feelings of "puppy love" you both had for each other? Sure, your feelings are deeper now, but it's nice to recall fondly on those feelings, and Necco helped us do just that in 2007! Their conversation hearts candy sayings include:
COOL CAT, PUPPY LOVE, TAKE A WALK, MY PET, BEAR HUG, TOP DOG, URA TIGER, GO FISH, LOVE BIRD, and PURR FECT
2008
It's only natural that we want to experience love, and Necco embraces it in 2008 with an emphasis on all things nature and wildlife in their conversation hearts candy sayings:
MELT MY ♥, IN A FOG, CHILL OUT, CLOUD NINE, HEAT WAVE, SUN SHINE, GET MY DRIFT, WILD LIFE, NATURE LOVER, and DO GOOD
2009
The way to a man's heart is through his stomach, isn't it? Well, a woman's too! Necco wants us to whip up some delicious treats for each other in their 2009 line:
RECIPE 4 LOVE, TABLE 4 TWO, STIR MY HEART, MY TREAT, TOP CHEF, SUGAR PIE, SWEET LOVE, HONEY BUN, SPICE IT UP, and YUM YUM
2010
Necco actually held a contest for new conversation heart sayings and flavors to welcome in a new generation of Valentine's Day candy gifters with novel new sayings including:
TWEET ME, TEXT ME, YOU ROCK, SOUL MATE, LOVE BUG, and ME+YOU
Then in 2018 the unthinkable happened. Necco, the manufacturer of Conversation Hearts, went bankrupt and the future of these treats as well as others such as Necco Wafers and the SkyBar candy bar were in doubt. Products disappeared from shelves for several years as other candy manufacturers picked up bits and pieces of one of America's oldest candy companies.
One of those companies turned out to be Spangler Candy who restarted production of these Valentine's Day candy staples in 2020. Thank heaven, as Valentine's Day just isn't complete without getting a box of these treats from a secret admirer or BFF!
So, in 2021 Spangler is rolling out new sayings for Conversation Hearts which include:
IGOTU BABE, CRAZY NLUV, PER FECT, SUMMR LOVIN, LOVE SHAK, STILL THE 1, and ALLMY LIFE as well as more:
Our hearts are jumping with excitement to see the new Conversation Hearts Candy sayings this year and look forward to this nostalgic candy being around for another century!
