What are Conversation Hearts?
Conversation hearts are heart-shaped wafer candies which are imprinted with short, sweet sayings like “I Love You” and “Be Good.” The most famous brand of conversation hearts is probably Sweethearts, made by the New England Candy Company (NECCO), which has popularized these sugary sweets for over 100 years. Conversation hearts tend to be big sellers around Valentine’s day, thanks to their heart shape and love-themed sayings.
