Aloha Candy Fans,

As you know, we can often be found scouring the far flung corners of planet Earth in search of your favourite candy treats. If we taste-test a few along the way, it’s all in the name of research, right? Sometimes though, we come across the weird stuff that walks that fine line between total genius and complete insanity and we think it’s only fair that we share it with you.

If you love candy weirdness as much as we do, then you’re gonna love this…

Insect Candy 

Yes, it’s true. Sweet on the outside, crunchy on the inside. It’s not an Armadillo, it’s a genuine insect in a lolly pop.

Cool fact: In most Asian countries, insects such as crickets are considered a delicacy and are rumoured to be packed with nutritious goodness. Some insects are even bred specifically for human consumption!

Fancy getting your freak on and giving it a lick? We have a whole range of these suckers.

Foie Gras Bubblegum

You know when you have those cravings for goose liver that you just can’t satisfy? A bit like when you have an itchy bum and you’re stuck in a lift full of strangers.

Well, we’ve found the answer! (No, not to your itchy bum problem). Now you can experience all of the taste of foie gras with none of the expense or snobbery of those fancy French restaurants. You don’t even need to wear a tie, unless that’s your thing…

No need to feel guilty either, as these foie gras flavoured gumballs have never even seen a real duck or goose.

Duck, duck, goose.  Delicious!

Space Food

Most kids dream of being an astronaut. Well, at least I did… either that, or a unicorn.

Now you can literally grab a taste of what it would be like to eat ice cream in space. How cool is that?

Freeze dried ice-cream comes in three awesome flavours – chocolate, vanilla and strawberry. It’s an out of this world taste sensation, right here on planet Earth. A dessert fit for a spaceman.

There is so much more candy weirdness than we can cram into one blog post, so why not go and search our web store (search word hint:  bacon, pickle, curry, garlic and wasabi might give you more than you bargained for) or drop in at any of our six candy shops in London, Brighton or Birmingham.

‘til next week, keep being sweet!
