I was taking a stroll through my neighborhood this afternoon and glimpsed this jack o’ lantern lollipop and this ghost lollipop in the shop window of Papabubble. If there’s one thing I like, it’s candy, and if there’s another thing I like, it’s Halloween, so I was pretty happy to find these creepy but cute treats.
I walked into the shop, helped myself to a few samples, and watched the candy makers expertly stretch and roll the gooey, flexible taffy into long strips and conical shapes.
I couldn’t help but feel slightly jealous of these candy magicians. Just being around candy makes me happy, imagine if I could make such handsome creations? My heart would sing with sweet delicious joy.
