Pearson's rolls out new premium chocolate line named after a St. Paul street
Pearson Candy Co. is trying to tap into an emerging consumer market by launching its first new product since the Great Depression.
The St. Paul-based candy maker unveiled Tuesday its new line of snacking chocolate, called 7th Street Confections, named after the hometown street where it's located. Fans have anticipated the launch since word of a new product line leaked out last November.
