It All Started with Mary

Before See’s, there was simply Mary See: a homemade candy maker with a talent for creating delectable confections from scratch. Perfectly enough, her son Charles had a sweet dream of launching his own candy company in California, using his mother’s irresistible recipes to delight customers. It would be the start of something delicious.

From the very beginning, Charles was determined to instill his mother’s values and spirit into his up-and-coming business. He took inspiration from her black-and-white checkerboard kitchen for our now iconic shop interior. Perhaps more importantly, he never strayed from his mother’s commitment to using only the best ingredients available.

Over 100 years later, Mary’s great pride in quality remains the heart and soul of our candy company. In keeping with our tasty tradition, we continue to use only the highest quality ingredients, hand-pack our boxed assortments and artfully hand-decorate special seasonal items. In honor of Mary’s influence, we’ve compiled a list of tasty treats and birthday gifts we know she would’ve loved!

Break into a Timeless Treat

Nothing would’ve made Mary happier than a box of our Birthday Wishes Peanut Brittle. Crispy, buttery and positively crunch-tastic, our peanut brittle is still made using her original recipe! Simply said, there’s nothing to change when you’ve already got confectionary perfection.

Nestled in bright birthday wrap adorned with balloons, this delicious present is a lovely way to send sweet wishes. Plus, packed with more peanuts per square inch than any other, our brittle is sure to delight anyone.

Extraordinary Assortments of Dark Chocolates, Milk Chocolates & More

Mary deserves nothing but the best, and our unforgettable, golden gifts certainly fit the bill. Filled with one pound of rich dark chocolates, creamy milk chocolates, brittles, caramels and more, our Gold Fancy assortment is one impressive way to mark any occasion.

For a spectacular birthday surprise, take it up a notch with our Gift of Elegance® — an indulgent four pounds of dark chocolates, milk chocolates and specialty pieces nestled in an extraordinary box with a gold organza ribbon.

Classic Assorted Chocolates

Our Birthday Wishes Assorted Chocolates would’ve been the perfect gift for Mary! She loved nothing more than sharing her candies with others, and our classic mix of nuts, chews and soft centers holds a perfect piece for everyone. Packed with fan favorites like our Milk Bordeaux™, Dark Scotchmallow®, Milk California Brittle® and more, our assorted chocolates are a universal palate-pleaser.

A Bundle of Fun (and Fudge)

Don’t think we forgot about Mary’s original fudge. Our Vanilla Walnut Fudge, Bordeaux™ Pecan Fudge and Chocolate Walnut Fudge are the best chocolate treats for birthday parties and gifts. Creamy, crunchy and decadent, there’s a reason why we still make them the Mary way.

Truffle Temptations

Whether in milk chocolate, dark chocolate or white, our truffles are simply irresistible. From tart raspberry to smooth café au lait to rich dark chocolate, these little bites of heaven cover the full range of decadence. All the better, our truffles come pre-packed in a golden, gift-worthy box, which Mary would’ve definitely loved.

Curate a Box of Chocolates

There’s no sweeter gift than a specially hand-picked box of chocolates. Select your loved one’s favorite See’s pieces and we’ll pack your Custom Mix made-to-adore. We think Mary’s dream box would’ve included our delectable Dark Maple Walnut, Dark Peanut Crunch and Milk Almonds — each one a spinoff of one of her original recipes!

Take the Cake

The limited-time Birthday Cake chocolate is our sprinkle-topped homage to Mary herself. Featuring golden vanilla buttercream draped in rich white chocolate, this celebratory treat is coated with rainbow sprinkles. First launched in 2021 for our centennial celebration, this creamy candy is now a seasonal favorite.

Gift Without Guessing

With a See’s Gift Card in hand, your recipient can pick confections to their heart’s (and stomach’s) desire. Whether a lover of dark chocolate or are a sucker for Lollypops, anyone would appreciate an all-expenses-paid shopping spree at See’s. Mary would’ve gone for her own candy creations: Peanut Brittle, Victoria Toffee and fudge.

Party Prizes

The fun doesn’t stop at our delicious Deals of the Day. From September 9-16, enter Mary See’s Birthday Sweet-stakes for a chance to win decadent prizes, including a one-pound box of chocolate every month for a year!
