A Story Box Collection
Peanut butter may be one of America’s most familiar pantry staples, but in the hands of a small-batch maker, the everyday spread becomes something worth exploring one flavor at a time.
The Pennsylvania Peanut Butter Collection lets the recipient choose four 8-ounce jars from Nutty Novelties’ assortment of classic, sweet and adventurous peanut butters.
They can create a tasting flight of four different flavors, balance familiar favorites with unexpected combinations or repeat the varieties they know they will reach for most often.
Every jar is freshly ground in small batches by Nutty Novelties in Telford, Pennsylvania. Brothers Caleb and Jesse Mangum lead the family business with a small team dedicated to creating nut butters that are fresh, flavorful and made from simple ingredients.
This is more than four jars of peanut butter. It is a tour through a familiar American pantry staple, reimagined by a Pennsylvania maker with an appetite for new flavors.

Meet the Maker
Four jars may offer four different flavor experiences, but every one is freshly ground by the same small family business in Telford, Pennsylvania.
Telford, Pennsylvania
Nutty Novelties began at the Lansdale Farmers’ Market and grew from a local peanut-butter business into a Pennsylvania maker offering an imaginative assortment of freshly ground nut butters.
Today, brothers Caleb and Jesse Mangum run the family business with a small team in Telford. Its peanut and tree-nut butters are made in small batches with an emphasis on freshness, simple ingredients, protein and flavor.
The collection moves easily between familiar and unexpected flavors. A traditional peanut butter can sit beside dessert-inspired varieties, warmly spiced combinations and bolder creations such as habanero honey.
We chose Nutty Novelties because it takes a pantry staple almost everyone recognizes and gives it new personality without losing the comforting experience that made peanut butter an American favorite.
Meet Nutty NoveltiesBehind the Pantry Staple
For generations, peanut butter has been part of American lunches, after-school snacks, baking traditions and late-night trips to the pantry. Its familiar combination of roasted flavor, richness and protein made it both practical and comforting.
Small-batch peanut butter makes that familiar food feel new again. Fresh grinding preserves the character of the roasted peanuts, while carefully selected additions can move each jar in a completely different direction.
One flavor may belong on toast or in a classic sandwich. Another might be spooned over waffles, blended into a smoothie, baked into cookies or enjoyed directly from the jar.
This four-jar collection celebrates both sides of peanut butter: the dependable American staple and the open canvas for a maker’s imagination.
