A Year In Candy Corn Embellishments - 2024

I just can’t resist the cuteness of a candy corn or so it seems; I have two die sets that include them and when I see a new seasonal colorway of them at the store, I am enamored. Now that I have made Valentine and Easter versions, I think I’m committing to making all the versions I see through out the year and adding to this topic. Of course, I will have to buy them to use as reference materials, too. Ahem.

  1. February/Valentine’s

I ended up using some of them on tags for plates of treats for neighbors.

    I haven’t used them for anything yet, if I do I will add a picture.

3 & 4… June/Summer - These, I haven’t seen in IRL, so have supplied reference pics from online retailers

  1. June/Summer: I had a how-colors-can-look-on-a-computer-screen snafu with the Blackberry Cobbler Candy Corns. THe original photo I based these on seemed like the bottom portion was brown (like crust?), so I did that. Then when I went to find a photo so share here, they all looked more like dark purple. So I recut those pieces and glued them over the brown.

  1. Since I started this is Feb of 2024, I guess Jan of 2024 still counts as within a year. So! These are Autumn Mix candy corns, but I made them at the end of January.

    Two different Tim Holtz die sets. I haven’t (always) used all the pieces, making them a little simpler aesthetically, as well as easier to assemble.

Nice! I’ve never seen the Easter candy corn. Those would work great in an Easter celebration favor! ❤️

So fun! I loved them in your Valentine tags. Looking forward to more! (A candy corn Xmas tree maybe? :thinking:)

Thanks, friends!

@AIMR If I spot some in the wild, I will pick some up (for reference) and make some paper ones!

@PaperCutPlace I hadn’t seen these before, either.

@Abbeeroad I’m very curious if there will be red, white, blue ones for Independence Day - something I’ve not seen, but I sure wasn’t expecting these pastel ones, either.

These are super cute.

I was curious about the different colors.
Well they also come in some crazy flavors!

normal candy corn isn’t my favorite but they are decent mixed with peanuts.

Thank you!

And EEP! I hope the store I have been finding the others at gets these! For some reason, it feels like “cheating” to use ones that weren’t found “in the wild”. That said, it’s my game, so I can change the “rules” anytime I want! :rofl:

Adorable!

Amazing!

Thanks, y’all!

Two more “flavors” of candy corn embellishments! Sadly, I didn’t find these IRL, so have no idea how they taste. Pics of the inspiration candies, along with these pics, added to the OP.

I think candy corn is super cute and I can eat one or two before i hit my tolerance threshold. But YOUR candy corns are perfect!

Thanks, friends!

@AIMR I may have to look in the packaged candies at some stores to try the S’mores. Mostly, I have have looked in the buy-the-pound section. :thinking:

@Bunny1kenobi They just are so dang cute, right? I haven’t figured out why, but it must be at least partly nostalgia.
