Where do you live? Mäusespeck is even in the Wikipedia article:

Im deutschsprachigen Raum ist die Süßware häufig unter der Produktbezeichnung Mausespeck oder Mäusespeck erhältlich.

BaWü here, definitely a thing. Not too common though.

BaWü here, definitely not aware of it.
Sincerely, south of Stuttgart.

So you have never been grocery shopping 30 years ago? I'm sure in the 90s it was the common name on the Products. Now it's gone.

Hessen, but people made me aware, that it was called this when I wasn't born and people where bad at English.
