About the Holiday

On Jump For Jelly Beans Day show your appreciation for these hard shell candies with chewy centers by jumping for joy. Jelly beans became popular during the Civil War when a candy company out of Boston marketed them as the perfect thing to send the soldiers. They were President Reagan’s favorite candy and were handed out during his inauguration. Blueberry was his favorite.
