Sweet Factory the World’s Smallest Jawbreakers
Sweet Factory “World’s Smallest Jawbreakers” are my favorite candies. They look just like jawbreakers but are the smallest made anywhere. I have seen them range from about 2mm to about 6mm. I like to chew them instead of suck on them because they are hard but at the same …
