170 Years Young! Mary See’s Birthday Beginnings

Before See’s, there was simply Mary See: a candy maker with a talent for creating irresistible, homemade confections from scratch. Perfectly enough, her son Charles had a sweet dream of launching his own candy company in California, using his mother's irresistible recipes to delight customers. It would be the start of something delicious.

Charles always followed his mother’s footsteps, never straying from her commitment to using only the best ingredients available. He even took inspiration from her black-and-white checkerboard kitchen for our now iconic shop interior!

Over 100 years later, Mary’s pride in quality is still the heart and soul of our candy company. In keeping with our tasty tradition, we continue to use only the highest quality ingredients, hand-pack our boxed assortments and hand-decorate special seasonal items.

In honor of her influence, we’ve compiled a list of tasty treats and birthday gifts we know she would’ve loved — some of which will be on special during Mary See’s birthday bash!

Break Into a Timeless Treat

Nothing would’ve made Mary happier than a box of our classic Peanut Brittle. Crispy, buttery and positively crunch-tastic, our peanut brittle is still made using her original recipe. Simply said, there’s nothing to change when you’ve already got confectionary perfection!

Golden Gifts of Dark Chocolates, Milk Chocolates & More

Mary deserves nothing but the best, and our extraordinary assortments definitely fit the bill. Filled with rich dark chocolates, creamy milk chocolates, brittles, caramels and more, our Gold Fancy and Large Gold Fancy boxes make for a deliciously elegant way to mark the occasion.

For a spectacular birthday surprise, take it up a notch with our Gift of Elegance® — an indulgent four pounds of dark chocolates, milk chocolates and specialty pieces nestled in a wow-worthy box with a gold organza ribbon.

See’s Candies Classic Birthday Gifts

Our Happy Birthday Assorted Chocolates would’ve been the perfect gift for Mary See’s birthday! She loved nothing more than sharing her chocolates with others, and this bestselling mix holds a perfect piece for everyone.

Packed with crunchy, chewy classics like our Milk Almond Square, Dark Scotchmallow® and more, our Happy Birthday Nuts & Chews are another crowd favorite.

Of course, the best birthday parties always include Assorted Lollypops! Packed with our Vanilla, Butterscotch, Café Latté and Chocolate Lollys, this treat is guaranteed to bring joy.

And who knows... there may be a deal coming on these iconic assortments!

Curate a Custom Box of Chocolates

There’s no sweeter birthday gift than a specially hand-picked box of chocolates. Select your loved one's favorite See's pieces and we'll pack your Custom Mix made-to-adore. We think Mary’s dream box would’ve included our delectable Dark Maple Walnut, Dark Peanut Crunch and Milk Almonds - each one a spinoff of one of her original recipes!

Gift Without Guessing

With a See’s Gift Card, your recipient can pick confections to their heart’s (and stomach’s) desire. Whether a lover of dark chocolate or our Lollypops, anyone would appreciate an all-expenses-paid shopping spree at See’s. Mary would’ve gone for her own candy creations: Peanut Brittle, Victoria Toffee and fudge.
