I’ve already posted about the black and white candies I’ve found as possibilities for our candy buffet. I ended up at around $135.50 for 33 pounds of candy and 12 suckers (not factoring in shipping costs). I was also able to find many different flavors, from licorice to blackberry to dark chocolate. But of course, what would our candy buffet be like without great pops of green?

This green rock candy is $72 for 120 sticks (and of course, I certainly could find it cheaper, but this was the best picture!). It looks like they run around $8 or so for 10 rock candy sticks. However, I am planning on making them, so the only thing I’ll need is sugar, water, and swizzle sticks or string! Check out these easy instructions for making rock candy. It might just bring back memories of making rock candy as a science project when you were a kid!

I love these fruit wedges! We’ll probably go with the lime flavor because the colors are brighter. Plus, I think it’s much more common to have apple-flavored candy, so I want to diversify a bit! They’re only $24.50 for 5 lbs.

I love these hard candy sticks! Not only are there tons of green flavors to choose from, but they’re only $12 for 80! Woo!! I’m torn between the sour apple and the wintergreen. The colors of the wintergreen are brighter, and I’d assume people would expect a minty flavor here.

These are more lime in color than I’d want… but really, I think I can stray from a specific shade of green for the love of candy. And I LOVE gummy candy. My favorite would be peach rings, so I think these apple rings are a good substitute in order to stay in the color family. And they’re only $12 for 4 lbs!
So, where does that leave us? We’ll be spending $48.50 for 9 pounds of candy and 80 hard candy sticks. So, our grand total so far is $182 for 42 pounds of candy, plus hard candy sticks and suckers. Not too bad! And there are still a lot of items that I’d like to make. Of course, I haven’t ordered any of these sweets yet, as we’re still months and months away from September. But a girl must plan!
