Each box also comes with a small packet of salt to sprinkle on your warm pretzel.

The Story Behind SuperPretzel

How SuperPretzel Started

The story of SuperPretzel began in 1971. A person named Gerry Shreiber bought a pretzel company that was having some financial difficulties. He paid about $70,000 for it. Gerry had a great idea: he wanted to sell soft pretzels at sports stadiums. Back then, stadiums didn't have many food choices, so he saw a big opportunity!

Naming the Brand

Gerry Shreiber was a big fan of the superhero Superman. Because he loved Superman so much, he decided to call his new pretzel brand "SuperPretzel." He even designed a special display case for the pretzels. It looked like a tree made of metal hooks, all enclosed in a glass case. This helped make the pretzels look super appealing to customers!
