History
Annabelle Candy Company was born in San Francisco in 1950 from the dream of Sam Altshuler, a Russian emigre struggling to make ends meet. He named his business after his daughter, and his first item, Rocky Road became an immediate hit. To this day, Rocky Road is among the top 50 bestselling candy bars on the west coast of the U.S.
After relocating to Hayward California in 1965, Anabelle Candy entered a golden age. In 1972, it acquired Golden Nugget Candy Company and in 1978, the Cardinet Candy Company, adding the popular Aba Zabba, Big Hunk, and U-No candy bars to its expanding line.
Still privately owned and operated, Anabelle candy has built a reputation for continuing to peddle its unique and high-quality classic candies to young and old alike.
