Patsy's Original

Patsy’s Original is a company with a rich confectionery legacy dating back to the late 1800s when founder Patsy Mehaney began selling candied popcorn and saltwater taffy at local fairs in Indiana. After establishing Patsy’s Original in Manitou Springs, Colorado, in 1903, the brand grew into a candy-manufacturing giant, known for its delectable caramels, chocolates, and other timeless treats, distributing nationwide for over a century. Embracing the shift in modern consumer demand, the century-old factory made a bold move to enter the hemp industry. While remaining committed to crafting high-quality, mouth-watering candy using the finest ingredients, Patsy’s now infuses its classic recipes with the therapeutic benefits of CBD and THC.

The history of Patsy's Original Candies is a long and sweet one, beginning in the late 1800s with visionary confectioner Patsy Mehaney. He initially made a name for himself by selling classic treats like candied popcorn and saltwater taffy at local events. In 1903, he settled in Colorado and officially established Patsy's Original, which eventually became a major national candy manufacturer known for its traditional chocolates and caramels. The brand began its transition to the cannabis industry as consumer demand evolved, choosing to infuse their timeless candy recipes with Full Spectrum Hemp Extract containing both CBD and THC

Patsy's Original Candies serves as the parent company for its subsidiary, XITE Edibles, and both lines use the same premium Full Spectrum Hemp Extract with similar terpene profiles. The primary difference lies in the product range and cannabinoid content. The original Patsy's edibles line is limited to their classic sweets, such as caramels, chocolate minis, and nuggets. In contrast, the XITE Edibles line boasts a wider array of products, including toffee, hard candy, and gummies. More importantly, XITE Edibles often feature higher concentrations of Delta-9 THC (the major psychoactive compound), infused to create a more distinct "high." For example, some XITE products contain a balanced blend of 15mg of THC and 15mg of CBD, while the original Patsy's Dark Chocolate Minis might contain a lower total amount of hemp extract, making XITE the go-to for consumers seeking a stronger effect.
