Original Spree candy is fruity and fabulous! Everyone has their favorite color of Sprees candy (my top pick is green with purple as a runner-up!), but having a favorite certainly doesn't stop anyone from enjoying all the others as well. Spree candy has been around for many years - over 40 years in fact - and while it has become trickier to find, it still has more than enough fans who can't get enough of its sweet and tangy taste. Wonka began creating Spree candy in the 1980s. It remains a favorite of children and adults alike.
