Originally founded in 1921, Andy's Candies produced a variety of boxed chocolates, which were sold on the store premises. As the business grew over the years, a factory was built and the name changed to Andes Candies.

In 1950, the Crème de Menthe candy piece was added to the Andes stores' product line. This three-layer mint has remained the foundation of the brand and today is the #1 After Dinner Mint on the market.

Over the years Andes has expanded to include a variety flavors and packages including the popular Cherry Jubilee, Mint Parfait and Toffee Crunch Thins. Andes Crème de Menthe flavor can be found in a number of different packages including our new 14 pc. convenience pack and larger 25¢ piece.

Recently, Andes has become a well-known ingredient in many items. Many retailers across the country are stocking Andes Crème de Menthe Ice Cream, Cake Rolls and Cookies. In the fall of 2003, Andes Crème de Menthe Baking Chips were introduced. These chips have the same great taste as traditional Andes and maintain our famous 3-layer design.
