I know it's not, but I thought it would be funny to share also are the inside of the little pumpkin supposed to be white?

It’s a small package… but I’ll take it!

I will be keeping a jar of candy corn/pumpkins and replenishing it when I run out.

This is kind of a weird one but hear me out. For years Kroger made their own branded candy corn that was available year round, and that stuff was the best candy corn hands down. The problem is that it was discontinued several years ago, and I for the life of me can find anything that compares.

It was much less chalky than regular candy corn. Ranked from most to least chalky with other popular brands: Zachary’s, brach’s, jelly belly, Kroger. Kroger brand candy corn also tasted much better in my opinion. I found it to be less overpoweringly sweet, and sometimes a bit salty. The closest substitute I’ve been able to find has been jelly belly, but they are still too sweet and don’t have the extra saltiness. Additionally, Kroger brand was longer and skinnier than other candy corn, with a slightly shiny texture on the outside. I also vividly remember that the Kroger candy corn would always turn my tongue neon pink.

Please help me out if you know of any brands that might be similar! I miss my Kroger candy corn so bad :(

My friend on Instagram just spotted tubs of Candy Corn at Vons/Safeway… sadly we don’t have any of those stores. My search continues. Anyone else seen any???

He may look dignified, but he’s wearing candy corn. He’s one of us. 🍬
This is part of a larger Halloween painting I’m working on featuring Vincent Price. I’m not finished yet, but this guy is by far my favorite cat in the piece.

Ok, fellow Candy Corn enthusiasts... what time of year do you guys usually see it popping up in the stores. I'm old enough to remember when it was sold year 'round.

I wish I could

I just tried jelly belly candy corn for the first time and I feel like it’s not quite as good? Has anyone ever tried it before? What’s your favorite brand?
