Watermelon Buds

Heritage Home Collection:

THE TASTE OF SOUTHERN SUMMERS

Inspired by the breezy low-country charm, our Watermelon Buds capture the crisp, juicy sweetness of summer in the South. Each piece delivers the refreshing flavor of perfectly ripened watermelon – a Southern tradition as timeless as afternoon gatherings on shaded porches.

Like the Spanish moss on ancient oaks and colorful fresh flowers in bloom, our candy has been made by hand in the same way for over 100 years. An experience of pure taste and simple joy in every bite.

THE ARCHITECTURAL INSPIRATION

Our Watermelon Buds package features a classic Low Country South Carolina plantation home, where gracious Southern living is on full display. Notice the welcoming front porch, the symmetrical windows, and the majestic Spanish moss draping from century-old live oak trees – all hallmarks of this distinctive regional architecture.

These historic homes were designed to maximize comfort in the warm Southern climate, with high ceilings and large windows to capture cooling breezes – much like how our refreshing Watermelon Buds offer sweet relief on warm summer days.

A CENTURY OF CRAFTSMANSHIP

Since 1924, Butterfields has crafted our hard candies using time-honored techniques and the finest ingredients. Each batch of our Watermelon Buds is carefully cooked, pulled, and shaped by hand – just as it was generations ago. The result is a candy with perfect texture, vibrant flavor, and a heritage you can taste.

What Our Customers Are Saying

Have enjoyed these for years!

I had my first Peach Buds about 14 years ago! A local restaurant was selling them and I've been hooked ever since. Having been raised near the Sandhills of N.C., I was no stranger to some of THE best peaches around. When I tasted this candy it was like being transported back to summertime peach season in the Sandhills!

Sharon Reynolds
Peachy Yummmmm!

I had never heard of Butterfields before, until an ad popped up in my social media feed recently. I'm such a candy person so of course I'm gonna give it a try! The Peach buds are very very good. I have them in a dish at my house and several other people really love them too! I bought key lime also, but haven't opened that bag yet. Can't wait to try those too.

Peach Bud Review

Delicious old fashioned candy. Like how the peach flavor lingers after it's gone. Just the right subtle hint of peach, not too sweet and very fruity.

Michael Ginster
Just the right size!!

Loved these. Nice size. If I ate something spicy and there was an aftertaste, these were perfect to get rid of the taste. Very good and not overpowering. Will order more!

Linda Herring

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the Candies Hard or Chewy?

Hard, we don’t recommend biting into them. It’s old-fashioned handmade hard candy, we have been making it the same way for 100 years.

How should I store the candy after it’s opened?

Humidity is the enemy. Keep Candy in an airtight container, and away from extreme temperatures.

Is your candy Gluten-free?

Yes! All our candy is Gluten-free.

Do you offer Sugar-free Candy?

Not currently, but we are in the process of developing it! Join our mailing list to be the first to know when it’s available.

Is your candy Vegan?

Yes!

Why is there coconut in all your candy?

We use coconut to grease the tables, so it doesn’t stick when folding the candy by hand and keeps our candy vegan.  There are also tiny pieces of coconut in the middle of the candy.  It’s a 100-year-old family recipe. Our candy does not have a strong coconut taste.

How much is shipping?

Orders over $45 ship free, all other orders are a flat rate of $9.99.  We are a small family business and hope to find better shipping options in the future.

How long does it take to ship?

We are a small family business and only ship Monday – Friday. We are based in Nashville, NC.  Shipping to the West Coast can take between 5-10 business days.  Shipping to Hawaii and Alaska can take at least 15 business days.

Why are the candies different sizes and colors?

We make all our candy by hand. Color, shape, and size can vary.
