Boston Baked Beans: An Old-Time Classic Crack the red candy shell and there's a whole peanut waiting inside. Boston Baked Beans have pulled that same trick for generations, and it still works. The shell is hard, sweet, and a deep candy red. It gives way with a crunch before you reach the peanut at the center. No beans, despite the name, just an old-time classic people have reached for since the penny-candy days. They come in a 7 ounce resealable kraft bag, so you can grab a handful and seal the rest for later. Why You'll Love It The two-part bite. A crunchy candy shell, then the peanut inside. A genuine old-time classic. The kind that never really went away. No beans, all peanut. The name is a throwback; the candy is simple. Resealable 7 ounce kraft bag. Grab a few, seal the rest. Sweet, crunchy, and easy to keep around. Order online or pick one up in the shop.
