What Are Blow Pops?

Charms Blow Pops are popular lollipops that have a fun bubblegum center. Tootsie Candy Company makes these lollipops. Tootsie bought the Charms company in 1988. The marketing boasts two treats in one because you get a fruity lollipop and bubblegum in one candy.

Blow Pops come in three varieties: Charms Blow Pops, Charms Super Blow Pops, and Charms Blow Pop Minis. (Note that Charms makes several candies, but this article is about their Blow Pops.)

As a parent, you know how important it is to ensure candy is safe for your kids if they need a gluten free diet. Those with celiac disease, gluten intolerance, or an allergy can have severe internal and external reactions when they ingest gluten.

You need to be diligent, especially during Halloween. Be sure to sort all of your kids’ candy so you can remove any candies that are not gluten free.
