It is a round, chocolate-covered candy bar that contains a combination of [[marshmallow]], [[caramel]], and [[roasted peanuts]]. The Goo Goo Cluster is considered to be the first combination candy bar, as it was the first to incorporate multiple ingredients into a single product.<br /> <br /> ==History==<br /> The Goo Goo Cluster was invented in [[1912]] by the [[Standard Candy Company]] in [[Nashville, Tennessee]]. The candy was created by Howell Campbell and Porter Moore. The name &quot;Goo Goo&quot; is said to have been inspired by the sound that babies make, and it was marketed with the slogan &quot;So good, they&#039;ll ask for it from birth.&quot;<br /> <br /> ==Ingredients==<br /> The original Goo Goo Cluster consists of the following ingredients:<br /> * [[Milk chocolate]]<br /> * [[Marshmallow nougat]]<br /> * [[Caramel]]<br /> * [[Roasted peanuts]]<br /> <br /> Over the years, the Standard Candy Company has introduced several variations of the Goo Goo Cluster, including:<br /> * [[Pecan]] Goo Goo: Replaces peanuts with pecans.<br /> * [[Supreme Goo Goo]]: Contains pecans and a layer of caramel.<br /> * [[Peanut Butter Goo Goo]]: Features a peanut butter center instead of marshmallow nougat.<br /> <br /> ==Production==<br /> The production of Goo Goo Clusters involves several steps:<br /> 1. The marshmallow nougat is prepared and formed into round shapes.<br /> 2. The nougat is then covered with a layer of caramel.<br /> 3. Roasted peanuts are added to the caramel-covered nougat.<br /> 4. The entire cluster is coated in milk chocolate.<br /> <br /> ==Cultural Impact==<br /> Goo Goo Clusters have become a beloved treat in the Southern United States and are often associated with [[Nashville]]. They are sold in various retail outlets and are a popular souvenir for visitors to the city. The candy has also been featured in various media and has a dedicated following among candy enthusiasts.<br /> <br /> ==See also==<br /> * [[Candy bar]]<br /> * [[Chocolate]]<br /> * [[Confectionery]]<br /> * [[Nashville, Tennessee]]<br /> <br /> ==References==<br /> {{Reflist}}<br /> <br /> ==External links==<br /> {{Commons category|Goo Goo Cluster}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Confectionery]]<br /> [[Category:Chocolate]]<br /> [[Category:American brands]]<br /> [[Category:Products introduced in 1912]]<br /> [[Category:Food and drink companies based in Tennessee]]<br /> [[Category:Culture of Nashville, Tennessee]]<br /> <br /> {{food-stub}}</div>
