"Unless you're a Maple Nut Goodie fanatic, you may not have noticed that the candy mysteriously disappeared from shelves recently, with an emphasis on the mysteriously. Even today, it's difficult to precisely pinpoint when or why these beloved candies were taken out of production. A petition published to Change.org in November of 2022 speculates that the discontinuation of the candies may have happened in April of that same year. Brach's has confirmed that the candies were discontinued indefinitely in a Facebook post in 2024."
"There certainly seems to be a demand for them, with consumers taking to Reddit and social media channels to express their disappointment and surprise at no longer being able to find this nostalgic candy. Brach's Maple Nut Goodies even made it onto our list of discontinued candies we'd love to bring back. One Reddit commenter shared, "I'm so sad to see that they've been discontinued. Bring them back!""
Brach's Maple Nut Goodies originated in the early 1900s and fit the vintage candy category. The candies recently vanished from store shelves with no clear public explanation. A Change.org petition from November 2022 speculates the discontinuation occurred in April 2022. Brach's confirmed an indefinite discontinuation in a 2024 Facebook post. Consumers have expressed disappointment on Reddit and other social media platforms and created a petition with video messages sharing nostalgic memories. The petition approached its 5,000 signature goal, and supporters hope public demand could persuade the company to resume production.
