Gobstoppers, also known as jawbreakers in Canada and the United States, are a type of hard candy. They are usually round, and normally range from about 1 â 3 cm across; though in Canadian/US candy stores, some stores or stands in Europe and many theme parks, gobstoppers can sometimes be up to 8 cm in diameter. The term gobstopper derives from 'gob', which is slang in United Kingdom and Ireland for mouth. The sweet was a favourite amongst British schoolboys between World War I and World War II.
