National Lollipop Day is a joyful celebration that brings people of all ages together to indulge in the sweet, sticky, and colorful treat that has been a staple of childhood summers and trips to the candy store for generations. On this special day, people come together to share lollipops with friends and family, try out new and creative flavors, and take advantage of special deals and discounts offered by candy shops and businesses.
The origins of the lollipop date back to the early 20th century, when a candy maker named George Smith created a hard candy mounted on a stick. He named it the "lolly pop" after a famous racehorse of the time, Lolly Pop. Since then, the lollipop has become a beloved treat around the world, with countless flavors and varieties.
