Hmm, I guess you could use them for that. Although, when I was practicing for first communion, we used actual communion wafers that had not been blessed / transubstantiated during a Mass.
Anyway... the old Necco factory was on Mass. Ave. in Cambridge. You couldn't walk past the place without smelling sugar, sugar, sugar. They had a little store that operated very limited hours (they increased the hours for a couple of weeks before Valentine's Day each year) and you could buy pretty much any candy they made. Ah, memories
