History

Pineapple Lumps Choc Pineapple Lumps 500g Lolly Warehouse

The first Pineapple Lumps were made by the Regina Confectionery Company in Oamaru around 1952-54. Charles Diver, the confectionery chef and floor production manager at Regina, who would later create other classic kiwi sweets, was given the task of using up waste product from other lollies of the time. One sweet in particular, an early version of the chocolate fish with a banana flavoured marshmallow middle, had the most left overs.

Pineapple Lumps were originally called Pineapple Chunks, but the name was changed in the early 1960s to give them a more recognizable and original title. The product bearing the former, original name is now being manufactured again by Regina Lollies; while the product with the current name is manufactured by Pascall owned by Gareth Calkin, and typically come in 140g and 300g size packs.
