How Mike and Ikes Are Made

Just Born has been cranking out Mike and Ike candies since 1940. The Food Network’s Unwrapped 2.0 took a tour of their Pennsylvania factory for a look at how the chewy candies are made. They’re produced from sugar, corn syrup, and starch poured into molds, slow-baked, tumbled with colors and flavors, then glazed to a shine.
