SUMMARY:New England Sweets with Susan Mara Bregman
DESCRIPTION:A chocolate mill opened in Boston in the late 1700s\, setting the stage for New England’s enduring love affair with sweets. Over the following centuries\, the region has become home to an extraordinary variety of baked\, fried\, dipped\, sugared\, and frozen confections. Massachusetts gave us candy classics like Necco Wafers\, Sky Bars\, and Junior Mints.  From Fluffernutters to whoopie pies\, Susan Mara Bregman explores this sugary legacy\, uncovering the stories behind the treats that sweetened New England’s culinary landscape.  \nThe event is co-sponsored by Langley-Adams Library and Nichols Village.  The program will be in the auditorium at Nichols Village\, 1 Nichols Way\, Groveland\, MA.  Enter through the auditorium\, not the main entrance. \nThis program is part of the Revolutionary Library Crawl. Information on the Revolutionary Library Crawl available here:\nhttps://hwlibrary.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Revolutionary-Library-Crawl-Passport.pdf \nBregman is the author of the following books:  New England Neon\, New England Candlepin Bowling and Along Route 1: Maine\, New Hampshire\, and Massachusetts.
