About Bazooka Bubble Gum

Sharing the throne with Levis Blue Jeans, Coca-Cola and Barbie, Bazooka Bubble Gum is one of the most important items that represent American pop culture. The first pack of their gum was sold back in 1947, just after WWII ended. 

Just as the world was putting pieces together and trying to get back on its feet after the war, Bazooka Bubble Gum hit the Brooklyn street shops. Without exaggeration, their candy products such as Juicy Drop Pop, Ring Pop, Push Pop, and several other candy items changed the childhood of many.
