Description
Wow! I wish these were still around, I couldn't find them anywhere on the internet. These were a Willy Wonka candy that were the "Evil Twin" of Gobstoppers. Same size box, only box was black and the little "Gobstopper" had flames, same size candy, only they were HOT. Almost like Atomic Fireballs only smaller so you could be less conspicuous in class. I also like the taste a bit better than Fireballs. Fireballs have now copied them with a smaller version, but they are wrapped. I miss being able to pop them out of the box in junior high 1984.

Yeah, these were the best. My favorite! Wish I could buy them again. If I remember correctly, they were hot, then had a cool layer, then a tarty cinnamon center? They were awesome!

i used to love these things as a kid in the early 80s! i never saw them come in a box, the ones in my area came 5 to a pack in some kind of plastic wrapper. i used to buy them from the snack bar at my little league games, haha. as mentioned above, they had a hot layer, then a cool-down layer, then a hot layer, etc. the center was "cool" and was very similar to the center of a gobstopper. i think there was even a cutaway drawing on the side of the package that illustrated they layers. these were way better than atomic fireballs!
