In prehistoric times, cavemen would collect honey from beehives using a stick.  With the surplus of sugar in the 17th century, the English started the trend of preparing boiled sugar candy on sticks. But it is George Smith, owner of the confectionery company Bradley Smith Company, who is credited for creating the modern lollipop that we all enjoy today. He started making them in 1908 and trademarked the word ‘lollipop’ in 1931. today there are over 100 varieties of lollipops available today in all shapes and sizes.  (ashley loves the "original gourmet" in bubble gum flavor</p>
