The Candyman is back at it with a new “Willy Wonka”-inspired treasure hunt.
Syracuse native David Klein, the original Mr. Jelly Belly who came up with the popular jelly bean candy’s name, has hidden a “Gold Ticket” Treasure worth $100,000 somewhere within the lower 48 U.S. states. The clues to find it are in a new book called “The Candyman’s Treasure Hunt: The Orb Traveler.”
