Would You Eat Clear, Hard Candy That Looks Like Glass?

[Boyevyye De 243]

What about clear hard candy? Like, it looks like class. Maybe a class-looking lolipop, but it taste like candy and is NOT glass. Is this a good idea? I bet it doesnt exist.

 

I am so smart!

Or better yet, candy shaped cats. It will look like cats. Maybe a cats-looking lollipop, but it tastes like candy and is NOT cats.

If it is on a stick, sure then.

Interesting. I looked it up and there's such a thing as sugar glass. It can be formed into all sorts of things and can be made clear or colorful. Apparently it was also used for stunt scenes involving glass in movies!

I don't think sugar glass has been marketed as candy before, it's just been used for stunts as far as I know.

So your idea is somewhat unique.

Yea! I am going to make all of the money! >:3

Dewit. Making it clear would be good if you could find the right flavor things as ingredients.

 

I remember the suckers that had some type of bug in them from museums, I wanna try oneee.

Normally I would never say something like this, but now that you mentioned it...

 

That picture is actually making me really hungry now. I would totally eat a sugar kitty!

Can we smash it like glass? Does it make a crunching sound in your mouth?

 

I actually wouldn't mind getting ahold of some stunt-sugar-glass just for shits and giggles one day. A pain to clean up though, I can imagine.

Oh yea... I am not interested in eating candy bugs... Even though that is why we like crunchy foods.

That part made me laugh out loud 

I would totally eat that candy as long as it was NOT cats.

Aww I want some candy kitties! (>^3^)>

How about a lolly that looks like a scorpion stuck in glass but its actually a scorpion stuck in vodka candy?

Oh wait...

[Justin_Case001 4,855]

This is a good idea.  I'm sure all hard candy is just food colored anyway.  Everything is.  Did you know all cheese is white?  The rest is food coloring.  I think clear hard candy could be a hit.  Too bad you went and told everyone about your idea so they can steal it...  Maybe that'll learn ya.  (I'm just poking fun; I doubt anyone here will steal your idea.)

I don't think it is a good idea. Clear candy would look like ice, which is already (in my opinion) a failed candy product.

 

However, if you got a chance to use some really toxic glowing color in your candy, it would be an instant hit! But those candy are banned for a reason.

If it taste good, why not?

[Lucky Bolt 34,914]

Rock candy is very similar to that....and it’s delicious! 

[Dawnchaser 🌄 8,087]

Sure, I've eaten Fox's Glacier Mints

Agreed! You really can't go wrong with pure sugar crystallized on a stick, whether it's artificially colored or not. It's all good! 

[Stone Cold Steve Jobs 22,410]

I mean, I probably would. When I was a toddler I tried to eat sand once.

[Tacodidra 59,792]

If it's delicious, I don't care what it looks like. Though if it was as sharp as glass, I probably wouldn't.

What in Ra’s name

I just looked this up and it’s a thing. I came across some with bugs in them as well.

Vodka and bugs

Quite a pair

As long as it doesn't taste like glass

[CypherHoof 26,479]

We used to have a candy called "fruit thins" here, that were basically clear fruit candy in sheets an inch square but only a couple of millimeters thick.

you could stick them to your tongue like a postage stamp
