The Annabelle Candy Company, also known as Annabelle's, is a candy manufacturer based in Hayward, California, United States. The company was founded in San Francisco, California in 1950 by Russian immigrant Sam Altshuler, who named the company after his daughter. One of the company's self-proclaimed accomplishments is that its "Rocky Road" bar was ranked among the top 40 best-selling chocolate bars on the West Coast of the United States in 2007.[1]
The company moved to its present location of Hayward in 1965. In 1972, Annabelle Candy Company purchased the Golden Nugget Company, and in 1978 the Cardinet Candy Company added the Big Hunk, Look, U-NO, and Abba Zaba candy bars to its line of products.[2]
