== History ==
Bill and Dorothy Harmsen founded the Jolly Rancher Company in 1949, choosing the name to give the impression of a friendly Western company, and opened their first Jolly Rancher Ice Cream Store in Golden, Colorado on May 28, 1949. Finding that ice cream was hard to sell in the cold winter months, they added a line of bulk and boxed chocolate that was provided by a small candy firm in the Denver area. Jolly Rancher Company opened a number of franchise stores in Colorado, Wyoming and Nebraska and provided both chocolate candies and a five cent hot cinnamon taffy stick that proved to be very popular. It was this candy's popularity that caused Jolly Rancher Company to expand its hard candy line.<ref name="Jolly Rancher - Golden History">{{cite web |last1=Dodge |first1=Mark |title=Jolly Rancher, the most famous candy company, started in Golden, Colo. |url=https://www.goldenhistory.org/jolly-rancher-favorite-candy-maker/ |website=Golden History Museum & Park |access-date=1 December 2021 |date=14 March 2017}}</ref>

Jolly Rancher filed for a trademark for Jolly Rancher as a word mark on March 31, 1958, and received registration number 0695762 for that trademark on April 5, 1960. The first use in commerce for that Jolly Rancher word mark was noted in the filing as being June 1, 1960.<ref>{{cite web |title=Trademark Electronic Search System |url=https://tmsearch.uspto.gov/ |website=United States Patent and Trademark Office}}</ref>

In 1966, Jolly Rancher Company was sold to [[Beatrice Foods]], although Bill Harmsen continued to operate the business.<ref>{{cite news |title=Bill Harmsen dies at 89 started jolly rancher candy |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2002/04/13/business/bill-harmsen-dies-at-89-started-jolly-rancher-candy.html |newspaper=The New York Times|date=13 April 2002 }}</ref> In 1983, [[Leaf Candy Company|Leaf, Inc.]] acquired a number of candy brands from Beatrice, Jolly Rancher included.<ref>{{cite web |title=A Very Jolly Rancher |url=https://sites.psu.edu/tota137/2019/01/30/a-very-jolly-rancher/ |website=History of Candy}}</ref> In October 1996, [[The Hershey Company]] agreed to purchase the North American confectionery brands of Leaf, Inc. which included Jolly Rancher, [[Whoppers]], [[Milk Duds]], [[Good & Plenty]], [[PayDay (confection)|PayDay]] and [[Heath bar]].  As part of the transaction, Hershey agreed to sell most of its European candy operations to [[Huhtamäki|Huhtamäki Oyj]], Leaf's parent company.<ref>{{cite web |title=Hershey Plants Kiss on Leaf Candy |url=https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-xpm-1996-10-19-9610190104-story.html |website=Chicago Tribune |date=19 October 1996 |access-date=7 December 2021}}</ref>

In 2002, Hershey closed the [[Arvada, Colorado]] plant and moved the manufacturing of the candy to [[Mexico]] to save costs.<ref name="denverBizJournal2002">{{cite web |url=http://www.bizjournals.com/denver/stories/2002/10/14/daily42.html |title=Jolly Rancher plant Closes |work=Denver Business Journal |access-date=22 March 2013}}</ref>

In 2014, Hershey acquired Ontario based company [[The Allan Candy Co.]] and moved the manufacturing of the candy exclusively to the [[Granby, Quebec|Granby]] plant, in [[Quebec]], [[Canada]].<ref>{{Cite web|author=<!--Not stated-->|title=Hershey snaps up Jolly Rancher maker Allan Candy|url=https://www.confectionerynews.com/Article/2014/12/05/Hershey-s-Allan-Candy-acquisition|access-date=2021-11-02|website=confectionerynews.com|date=5 December 2014 |language=en-GB}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=2014-12-05|title=Hershey acquires Allan Candy|url=https://www.newhope.com/mergers-acquisitions/hershey-acquires-allan-candy|access-date=2021-11-02|website=New Hope Network|language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Citation|last=Baril|first=Jean-François|title=C'est bon à savoir : Hershey|date=2021-10-31|url=https://www.salutbonjour.ca/2021/10/31/cest-bon-a-savoir--hershey|language=fr|access-date=2021-11-02}}</ref>

== Flavors ==
Jolly Rancher's original flavors were watermelon, apple, and fire stix. They soon introduced cherry, orange tangerine, lemon, grape, peach, and sour apple. Eventually, [[Blue_raspberry_flavor|blue raspberry]] replaced lemon. Current flavors include cherry, blue raspberry, grape, green apple, and watermelon. There are also sour, cinnamon, and smoothie varieties. In 2013, lemon was reintroduced in an all-lemon bag. In 2015, Jolly Rancher offered a "Fruity Bash" variety bag which includes strawberry, mountain berry, lemon, orange, and pineapple. In 2017, Jolly Rancher offered a "Hotties" variety bag which includes watermelon & cayenne pepper, blue raspberry & sriracha, cherry & habanero, and green apple & ginger. In 2020, Jolly Rancher offered a tropical variety bag featuring fruit punch, golden pineapple, lime, and mango flavors. They also offer a "red" bag, which included cherry, watermelon, strawberry and fruit punch. As of 2012, the passion mix, which included the peach flavor, and the wild berry mix were discontinued by The Hershey Company.<ref>{{Cite web|author=<!--Not stated-->|date=April 27, 2021|title=15 Discontinued Candies That Taste Like Childhood|url=https://www.eatthis.com/discontinued-candies/|access-date=2022-01-04|website=Eat This, Not That!|language=en}}</ref> The Hotties mix was discontinued in 2019. In 2020, the peach flavor was brought back in an "all-peach" bag, and replaced the mountain berry flavor in the Fruity Bash bag.

== Chemistry ==
Jolly Ranchers are [[amorphous solid]]s, meaning their molecular arrangements have no specific pattern. They are hard, brittle, rigid, translucent and have low molecular mobility.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://c.ymcdn.com/sites/alphazeta.site-ym.com/resource/resmgr/files/richard_ludescher_-_candy_bi.pdf|title=Science of Candy|last=Ludescher|first=Richard|access-date=4 April 2017}}</ref> Jolly Ranchers are formed from highly concentrated sugar solutions (greater than 95% sugar) and have extremely high viscosity. Their "glassy" appearance is a result of the way they are processed. During processing, the sugar syrup is cooled so rapidly that no crystals have time to form. Jolly Ranchers hold their solid shape when kept in temperatures less than the [[glass transition temperature]] (T<sub>g</sub>). If the temperature is greater than the T<sub>g</sub>, the hard and glassy-like structure of the Jolly Rancher becomes a soft and rubbery material.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.acs.org/content/dam/acsorg/events/slides/2014-10-16-candy-chemistry-final.pdf|title=Candy Chemistry|last=Hartel|first=Rich|date=16 October 2014|access-date=4 April 2017}}</ref>

== Manufacturing ==
Jolly Ranchers are manufactured by creating a solution of [[corn syrup]], [[sucrose]], [[glucose]], or [[fructose]] syrup that is boiled to a temperature of {{convert|160|C|F}} and cooled to create a supersaturated mixture that is roughly 2.5 percent water.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.gomc.com/eSub/firstpage_frameset.asp?article=200801057|title=Search The MC - First Page Preview|website=www.gomc.com|access-date=2017-04-04|archive-date=2017-04-06|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170406020127/http://www.gomc.com/eSub/firstpage_frameset.asp?article=200801057|url-status=dead}}</ref> As the mixture is cooled, natural and artificial flavoring and artificial colors are added to individual batches of syrup solution which are later mixed with [[malic acid]] to improve shelf life and add further flavor. Once the mixture begins to cool, it is then [[Extrusion|extruded]] into long malleable strings that are cut to size and individually wrapped and packaged.<ref>{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=8rvOAgAAQBAJ&pg=PA34|title=Candy Making Made Easy|last=Serna|first=Tamara E.|date=2010-01-01|publisher=Lulu Com|isbn=9781446113424|language=en}}{{self-published source|date=May 2020}}</ref>{{self-published inline|date=February 2020}}
