Puritan Confection Vendor
Posted: Mon Aug 29, 2016 6:31 pmAnybody else have one of these? I am really OCD and it drives me and everyone around me nuts if I can't get something to work the way it was intended. Don't get me started on gumballs dot com and their sizes of gumballs!!!
Anyway anyone that sort of knows me knows when I was a wee lad I was very impressed with the acting and performances of one special actress. You know the 99 & 44/100'ss pure one? Any way in a tribute to her and with the help of another member of the forum we were able to correctly size labels (thanks Rick) and memorialize my special actress in a way I bet nobody else has.
The correct size mints for this particular machine is the size of an old fashioned Tootsie roll or a roll of Smarties. Here you go if you have more time than brains. Twist the ends tight and cut off the excess wrapper. Roll up the remaining candy roll in foil and tap the ends on a hard surface to flatten them out. Them wrap your new label around candy instead of a dowel.
I know candy goes bad but it was intended to dispense candy and it is sitting on my bar next to a dish of buffalo nickels. So anytime anyone of you stops by and needs a candy come on over and give it a try. Sorry I can't get photos to load in core t order.
