Tour a Candy House That AI Built

February 26, 2024 by

A couple of weeks ago, we showed you what it would be like to live in a world made of candy, our dream world. Afterward, we wondered what living in a house full of candy would look like.

To do this, just like how we created a world of candy, we used Midjourney, an AI photo generator, to think up the house of our dreams. Trust me, this will be the SWEETEST house tour you have ever taken!

The outside of the house is made up of an assortment of candies, everything from bubble gum to an assortment of hard candies.

While it is to be determined if this house would survive harsh weather conditions, it sure would survive a sprinkle of sprinkles.

When you enter the house, you are greeted by the caramel living room, which is sickeningly sweet and super sticky.

Every square inch is covered in caramels. Would you like caramel enough for this living room, or would you stick to something less sweet?

 As you move through the living room toward the dining room, you are greeted by crystalized rock candies.

While they may look inedible, don’t worry. They are super sweet and the best kind of lollipop to have, not to mention they are pretty classy.

The kitchen is also made out of hard candies to go with the dining room.

The only food allowed in this kitchen is sweets, plus even if you run out of food, you can eat the counters because everything is made out of candy!

Now it’s time for the best room of all.

The main bedroom is made up of all the chocolate. From the bed sheets to the window, chocolate is inescapable in this room.

After all, what’s a better way to wake up than to the sweet smell of chocolate?

The bathroom attached to the chocolate bedroom comprises lollipops and hard candies. Forget about tiling, all you need is some hard candies, and you have the best tiling!

The children’s bedroom is the best room of all!

Made out of lemon drops, this children’s bedroom is the perfect place for childhood fun and has the perfect treat if they ever get hungry.

Lastly, you must remember the basement because even though this house is made of candy, clothes are not.

This laundry room is made of gummies, so when washing your clothes, you must be careful not to drop them on the floor, or else they might get a bit sticky.

From top to bottom, this house is made entirely of candy. It is safe to say that if you live in this house, you must have a sweet tooth!

Would you like to live in it?

Are you Going to Stick to The Classic Kit Kat, or Are you Ready to Try Something New?

February 23, 2024 by

It goes without saying that the classic Kit Kat Candy Bar is delicious! It has long been one of our favorite classic candies.

In recent years, Kit Kat has expanded from their classic line to include new and exciting flavors. So, I decided to test some out and introduce you to others.

First, I was so intrigued by the new Kit Kat flavors that I needed to try a new one.

I was also intrigued by the Birthday Cake Kit Kat because I love birthday cake! This is the only Kit Kat in our lineup that I hadn’t tried, so I knew I had to get my hands on it.

When I first opened the Kit Kat, I was surprised by how beautiful it was. Covered in White Chocolate with rainbow sprinkles, Kit Kat screamed Happy Birthday.

When I first took my first bite, I knew this Kit Kat was a 10/10.

The delicious crisp wafer balanced out the sweet white chocolate.

Have I mentioned how beautiful it was, too? This Kit Kat is perfect to give to someone to celebrate their birthday or even to have as a sweet treat.

Additionally, our website offers the Limited Edition Churrono, this isn’t a typo, it actually is flavored like the beloved Mexican pastries – Kit Kat with the perfect combination of cinnamon and sweetness.

The crisp wafer of the Kit Kat makes it seem like you are eating an authentic churro with its crunch.

The fact that these are a Limited Edition means that they won’t be around forever, so be sure to get your hands on them before you no longer can.

Beyond just these unique flavors, the Kit Kat Duos flavor trio offers a mashup of their classic Kit Kat flavors and additional flavorful chocolates. The flavors include Mocha, Strawberry, and Mint.

Each of these different bars is defined by the mix of Dark Chocolate and flavored chocolates that melt in your mouth.

We currently offer the whole Kit Kat trio assortment and have the Strawberry and Mint flavors individually.

I love the new flavor additions to Kit Kat. With all these new flavors, there is new excitement added to the classic Kit Kat, and while we love classics, we also love innovation within the candy world, and that is precisely what Kit Kat is doing.

There is no question that we all love the classic Kit Kat, but how do you feel about the new flavor additions? Let us know!

AI-Generated Candy Land of Our Dreams

February 2, 2024 by

Many people have discussed how AI is the future of technology and our world.

To test this, I experimented with mid-journey, an AI photo generator, to see if it could create the future we all want to see here at CandyFavorites: a world made entirely of candy

Now, only some of the images created are great or even close to the candy world of my dreams, but I was able to make a town full of candy, and here it is. 

First, when you enter the city, candy trees, and castles topped with sweet treats greet you. Eventually, as you move down the road through the main street, you reach all the candy houses that all the people get to live in. 

With houses comes people, and with people comes school! This is why the town has a high school made of sour candy.

School is out, and everyone wants to have some fun; there is the gummy bear shopping mall, where everyone gets the sweetest deals; the marshmallow theme park, where people get a thrill; and the chocolate park, which will never melt even in the hot sun!

Lastly, there is a place for the Candy King and Queen, the Candy Cane Palace. 

The best part of this candy world of the future is that it’s all edible! 

While this isn’t the world we live in now, it could be the sweetest world in our future.

As a vast candy lover, it was enjoyable to imagine what a world entirely of candy could look like. It would be a sweet world with many good things to celebrate.

They Always Say the Way to Someone’s Heart is through……CANDY!

January 8, 2024 by

For Valentine’s Day, people often give flowers and chocolate. While those are great gifts, especially the chocolate, we have some new creative ideas, especially for some foodies.

This Valentine’s Day, we have both the Kraft Assorted Friendship Exchange Gummies Box and a Kraft Gummy Lunchable Pizza Kit Heart Box.

Both of these feature gummies that are extremely delicious and realistic, too. I had to test whether they fit for Valentine’s Day.

 First, I tried all the candies inside the Kraft Assorted Friendship Exchange Gummies box, including Kraft Mac & Cheese gummies, Oscar Mayer Hot Dog gummies, and Claussen Pickle gummies.

At first, I wasn’t sure if their flavors were realistic to the actual food, but once I bit into each, I realized that they were just classic gummy flavored. My favorite was the Mac & Cheese because I put it in a little bowl, which was adorable. All of them tasted the same, but they were fun and unique.

 Then it was time to try the Kraft Gummy Lunchable Pizza Kit Heart Box, which I was most excited about because, with it, you get to create your candy pizza!

In the box are many different kinds of candy, including the gummy pizza crust, cheese, pepperoni, and the sauce, which is candy-based.

First, I started by spreading the candy sauce, and then I got to customize my toppings. The combination of all the different types of candy was perfect and interactive.

Overall, these candies are the perfect twist on the classic candies that people give for Valentine’s Day. They are yummy and fun because food is the way to someone’s heart…especially when it’s in the sweetest form.
