It's mainly sweet, but it's a staple. Mixed with peanuts it's very good! Otherwise you can't eat much of it.

Someone told me this the other night. They said it had to be dry roasted peanuts mixed with the candy corn tho and as i dont do mucked about peanuts I didnt even want to try.

And the US Smarties are almost identical to UK Fizzers.

choc bark, just melt choc on to baking sheet and choch in candy corn, set and smash the gonads out of it...but she adds something to the choc as it melts.

Does something similar for x-mas with white choc, mint and broken candy cane...

Re: Candy Corn

I'm using Halloween candy corn to decorate cupcakes at the moment and I looked at the packaging closely and noticed that the contents are made in Mexico! It gave my Mexican coworkers a laugh. An American institution now made in Mexico.

Candy corn's OK. Nothing special. I eat it but if I bought a bagful, I'd end up throwing most it away because it'd go stale.
