What are the key ingredients of PAYDAY bars?

The key ingredients of PAYDAY candy bars are salted peanuts covering a nougat-like sweet caramel center.

When was PAYDAY candy first introduced?

PAYDAY candy bars were first manufactured in 1932 by Frank "Marty" Martoccio, a macaroni and candy manufacturer from Minnesota.

Since 1996, Hershey has been producing the classic peanut-covered PAYDAY bars in our Robinson, Illinois, plant.

As the story goes, it was payday at the plant when the inventors were trying to come up with a name for the new candy bar, hence its name!
