Also that banner is SO cute
Reese's cups, love them.
Milky Way Special Dark
Thank you for the opportunity. <3
(Thank you for the opportunity!)
My favorite candy is Buncha Crunch!
Either Whoppers or Reeses Cups
Also boop
My favourite candy is probably gummies -- like Swedish Fish or Sour Patch Kids.
Gummy worms! Or anything gummy really :3
Thank you for the chance!
2- I also love gummy anything!
And yesss so good! The delicious chewy texture is the best!
Also I wanted to ask, are there any plans in the future to add something similar to deviantart groups? I struggle so hard getting my artwork noticed and would love to have more options to show off my art and commissions without reposting the same images and stuff :)
Also Candy Corn is good and valid and doesn't deserve the hate it gets.
I have a lot, lol, but one is definitely butter toffee.
Atomic fireballs.
Sadly I'm from germany, but I'll share my fave candy anyways. ^^
If you (the lurker reading this comment) loves them too, lmk! :3c
epiq banner :D
(Also, nice banner and thx for the opportunity!)
Sour gummy worms
Gumdrops!
No, really, think about all those peanuts on it!
Edit: SEVENTY-THREE COMMENTS IN THE SIX MINUTES IT TOOK ME TO TYPE THAT?
But I do like gummy candy (Bears, worm, spider, etc.)
And favorite candy? Gotta be peanut butter M&Ms.
thank you! happy Halloween! :3
Thanks for this chance and Happy Halloween!
I'm gonna have to enter that banner contest eventually :P
It's more chocolate than candy, but hell, I'm not complaining.
I'd have to say that my favorite candy is cherry bing bars... or fudge. Toffee bars and dark chocolate are good too.
My all-time fav candy is Circus peanuts!
fun fact, I almost actually fractured my jaw one :3
Favorite Halloween candy though are the little mellowcreme pumpkins.
It's gotta be a toss up between candy corn and M&Ms!
Mwahahahahahaha~!
Unpopular opinion, but I absolutely love licorice!
Also THAT BANNER IS SO ADORABLEEEEEEE!
Reeses
Reeses without a doubt
Imagine something like a Reese's without the Chocolate OwO
Now thats a Canine friendly candy!!
I mean i got alot but to be honest
I really love Sour Patch Kids
Something about the soft colors on the equally soft candy makes my heart sing. Especially the anise or cherry ones~
I'd say I'd eat a Hershey's chocolate bar <3
I haven't found anything in the states that compare!
I like Nerds |3
My favorite candy of all time is Almond Joy.
Coconut enjoyers rise up!!!!!!!!!
For chocolates though I'd go with a Jive bar (a cheaper version of Twix) or a Titan bar (a better tasting Mars bar). The recipes for the Mars bar and the Twix has changed to be cheaper materials so they aren't as tasty as they used to be.
The new banner is awesome btw!! <3
And Ferrero Rocher Hazelnut Chocolates... 🍫🌰🦊
Salted caramel. Homemade and cut into little chunks to nibble at.
But I'd never say no to twix
Salt water taffy. Bring me truck loads of it. The flavor doesn't matter, I will try it all.
Whoppers.
Not the burger, the little chocolatey coated malt balls. Cromchy.
jk, it's Milky Way. Definitely a cute banner for the season, props to the artist!
Mystery-flavor Airheads
Twix
Wild berry Skittles
Sour Skittles
Cookies and cream chocolate
Sour gummy worms
Hersey's chocolate.
Happy Halloween everyone <3
Love the new banner btw! Spooky and incredibly well drawn! :3
Twin snakes!
(Two flavors in one that can be enjoyed together, or separate depending on your mood.)
My favorite candy candy, has always been skittles!
Back in highschool others would use it to barter with me. I had to tone it down one day when in a science class I had a huge ziplock bag in my lap and it fell and sounded like a cascading waterfall across the tile floor when it was the most dead silent in the room. I told myself it was a sign LOL
Claey's Hard Candy
my favourite candy is ANYTHING SOUR. I'd mess up a bag of cherry sours let's be real
happy halloween FA staff
My favorite candy is white chocolate!
I also love the new banner! <3
The good ol' Whatchamacallit!
I don't see many people talk about it, like, at all, but it's super good, everyone should try it at least once!
But for chocolate based candy, a Twix
Candy cigarettes
I don't think they have a specific name beyond that. Also fun dip sticks :3
Great Banner too~ zanzangen did a great job
Maaann, my diabetic ass has so many lmao
Cotton Candy, Candy Corn, and Twix are up there tho uwu
big fan of the taste and the chew of em
second fav is peanut m&ms tho
I actually learned how to make them at home and they come out incredible! Really I love all things peanut butter!
Favorite candy? Sweet Heat Skittles. Bet no one else likes that, seeing as how it was discontinued, had to get it from Etsy or something via the UK, and even that's now long gone. Delicious though, spice and sugar are such a lovely combination that no one respects.
( All the autumn banners were adorable! I hope we do holiday season ones, too. )
hot tamales
DONT KNOCK IT TILL YOU TRY IT
Holy shit i love salted caramel
But sour patch kids are a good contender for favorite because i don't have it often
Id have to say jolly ranchers, I'm not a big candy person but I'm very fruity so i love jolly ranchers
They were so good, though.
I have the sweatshirt to prove it!
Burnt Caramel Hawaiian Sea Salt Bar - Made by Chocopologie (this brand only, the best chocolate I ever had in my life, it's beyond imagination)
My favorite candy is Sour Patch Kids.
But the last candy i had was a "knoppers". that was pretty good
I can't see the banner too clearly but I'm sure it's mega-cute! ❤️
(Brach's only, though -- everything else I've ever had was unfortunately garbo lmao)
Chocolate covered rice crispy treats...Or anything chocolate for that matter
but in all seriousness Reeses Peanut Butter Cups and KitKats.
my favorite candy are Cola Bottle Gummies :p
Can we participate to the raffle for a friend ? (i'm not in the US but my friend is :p )
Oh its' going to have to be peach rings, I love them.
thanks for this chance!!
Thank you for the chance and good luck to everyone 💙
Especially the holiday shapes like eggs and pumpkins and Xmas trees and stuff since they have the perfect PB to chocolate ratio.
10/10 for me
i like pretty much anything chocolate though
But candy? Kitkats or any small bars.
Also this banner is super nice
M&Ms and Butterfingers are up there for me, too !
jelly bananas and "palitos de la selva"
Dark chocolate espresso beans are my favorite.
I really like candy corns
I love the Fun dips!!
Happy Halloween!
Bit o honey, those caramel squares intended for making caramel apples but they taste so good, and skittles. I can't really think of what other candies I like right off the top of my head, but I do like the taste of cheep chocolate lmao
Candy Corn
Gotta be careful with it, though. As a lot of brushing is
needed for the teeth.
Fav candy is Reese's Cups!
-Looks ashamed-
Candy Corn.
Milky Way all the Way
Loved chocolate ever since I was a kid and will continue eating it even after all of my teeth fall out.
You cant stop me! Mwahaha~
2. Also, by the time November 1st comes around, it will be one month until this website celebrates its 20th anniversary, since the website's launch on December 10th, 2005 (though it was founded in January 2005, it would take a while for the website to eventually launch).
But yeah, enjoy Halloween everyone.
P.S. For those curious, the next time that a full moon falls on Halloween, will occur on October 31st, 2039, which will be happening on a Monday (Sunday Night Into Monday Morning).
The next time October 31st lands on a friday will occur in 2031. Just FYI for those curious, and yes, for the full moon one, it took me 1 to 3 hours to find out when it will happen. And that was based on looking through the moon phase calendar up until 2050 by the way.
Obviously I don't need another one of these tablets, but my favourite candy is Reese's pumpkins and if I get picked just go ahead and roll up another number XD
Just a bunch of tasty angry rocks that turn my mouth in to an active warzone.
super cute banner, I love the expressions <3
Btw, this is such a gorgeous banner for Halloween
I can destroy a whole box of those easily!
Good luck to everyone! Great banner, too.
Thank y’all for the chance, for the giveaway, for keeping FA going, and giving me a community! Good luck to everyone 🖤
The fact that they look like rabbit pellets makes them funny too, so there's that.
Bonus if they're the special sour version of them <3
Hard candies with that fake-ass cherry flavouring is my kryptonite, is2g.
So dangerous and so GOOD
I was munchin on one and we decided to go to the beach, but I wasnt finished. So I took my stick of rock candy with me, held it sideways in my mouth and I carried some of our stuff to where we settled. Some Karen saw it, called the cops saying some delinquent had a syringe for drugs in their mouth. And after the sun set (we go late in the day) a cop came trudging over in the sand.
W-wha? How? I... I don't even begin to understand how the... huh?
[DBY is confused!]
Butterfinger!
Also love seeing all the Community Banners! I missed seeing those from way back when, haha
jokes aside, probably like reese's or something. that or butterfingers
it's hard to choose just one favorite
Anyway, good luck everyone!
I'd have to say my favourite candy has to be Jolly Ranchers.
From most to least favourite:
The Red or Blue ones, depending on how I am feeling
The Green ones
The Purple ones
The Pink ones
I never saw them in the original packaging, unless you're referring to the tropical flavours. If that's the case, I'll have to revisit them and get back to you on that.
Payday bars! I love those things. :3
And I love the banner!
Hu Simple 70% Dark: Low glycemic impact, very enjoyable.
Divine 70% - Single origin source.
Valrhona Guanaja 70% - Apparently made for chefs.
Ritual Chocolate 70% Mid Mountain - Flavorful, citrusy, made in small batches.
I love any sour sweets, so sour that my face turns into a black hole! -w-
I gotta go with Twix as my personal fave.
Good luck to everyone entering!
No?
Okay well then I'd prob say Reese's are pretty rad.
I could get a bag of the share size and end up polishing it off within an afternoon give the chance (especially if I put them in the fridge/freezer first highly recommend)
Also that banner is adorable
Probably snickers or reeses
As for kinds of candy I *can* eat? Pulparindo tamarind candy. Mexican candy is pretty dang good, even if it can be hard to find!
I like chocolate a lot though. ’Tis very yummy ^^
Thanks for the giveaway!
Apparently I like peanuts.
Coconut, chocolate, almond, what else do you even need??
Happy Halloween staff! ♡
my favorite candy though?..the peanut butter taffy...the ones that come in the black and orange wax wrappers..
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i44xM9jkloI
And my favorite candy is candy cock- uh, I mean, corn.
I'm not in the US, but can easily arrange for an address in the US. If that's not sufficient, don't give me a number.
I am genuinely curious about how the tariffs interfere with this. I would guess that would be an issue with getting stuff into the US, not so much sending out.
Have family in US that would love an early christmas present c:
I gotta say twin snakes rn
You could at least give us the option to pay the shipping fee...
Stop ignoring your community, not everyone here is in US.
MANY artists on FA are from Asia, EU, UK, ... Stop forgetting us!
Neat banner too!
Just generally loved anything with tamarindo
Especially green apple flavored
The sour ones are great but I’ve been super into the regular ones more and more lately. :3
And the banner looks great! :D
I actually like candycorn. We dont have it on shelves in my country, but we've been able to buy and ship it here so we could test it and I loved it! ;w;
I enjoy Skor more but they are harder to find and more expensive, I just love chocolate covered toffee candies.
I know I'm basically eating sugar on sugar...
I like bounty and lindt chocolates! Most choco covered coconut bars in general, I also like lemon cream wafers.
Or those mellowcreme pumpkins around October.
A small sponge disc topped with an orange jam filling and covered in chocolate. I delectable thing you can't just have one of.
My favorite candies are chocolate truffles with a brut flavor✨ Or just plain chocolate truffles.
MORE TRUFFLES MUHAHAHA✨✨✨
Matcha flavor Kit Kats are my new favorite candy
my favorite candy is sweet tarts :3
Sad this year Hiland didn't produce their ottsome Peanut Butter Chocolate milk for spoopy season, is like drinking liquid Reese's.
Lovely banner art! They did a great job on it <3
Starburst.
superior holiday candy XP
Skittles!
I know they're bad for me but...Whoppers.
But my favourite candy would have to be Sprees. I always have a love for them.
honestly i have such a huge weakness for sour skittles but they're so mouth hurty after too many of em.... the sacrifices i make...
And I do really love the changing banners every now and again.
Chocolate and caramel is hard to go wrong with~ ^^
Mike and Ikes are great when you want a break from chocolate though, and they come in a bunch of flavors too~ ^^
Gotta be Kvikk Lunsk! Had them in Norway and fell in love, it's basically what American KitKat USED to be! Awfully yummy ^^
Thanks to Huion and FA for the chance, it's so nice to see all you guys have done to reinforce and revitalize the community here and I'm excited to see where it goes from here :)
Would probably have to be a tie between Junior Mints and Twix. For a long time it was Tootsie Rolls, but they make my teeth hurt now x3
Caramel cubes!
My favorite candy is Snickers
If not then it's the little caramel-covered apple-flavored suckers instead.
These days I usually sate my sweet tooth with home-baked goods or fruit lol
My favorites used to be either a Zero bar or a Payday! :D
p.s. Zanzagen really nailed it with this banner!
And I don't really have a favorite candy, I just like them all.
Though I'm quite fond of "Original Gourmet" brand lollipops. :)
Good luck everyone!
Closely followed up by those dark chocolate oranges you can get around Christmas
Thanks for the chance :3
I think my favorite right now is hi-chew!
But I ALSO like those Werther's that are filled with caramel apple, anything honey flavored, the reeses with jelly in them, chocolate malt balls, nerd's clusters, those peelable gummies and the liquid filled ones, peanut butter m&ms, taffy (especially popcorn flavored!!), smarties....
okay I'll stop Cx
I am unable to compete due to not being an US resident but i would still like to answer the question. just for funsies!
My favorite candies are fruit gummies!
Good luck to everyone, and thanks for the chance!
Chocolate is great but I like the just pure sugar gummy types
Favorite Candy is Mike & Ikes
As always, thank you for the hard work and the opportunity!
Three Musketeers is mine.
Mounds <3
Thank you for the opportunity.
Pop Rocks.
alfajor triple bombom!
100% cocoa baker's chocolate, sandwiched between 1-2 medjool dates.
... it's candy to me.
I think lately, I've been liking the Nerds candy the most.
I say it would be between Kit Kat's, Musketeer's, and Twizzlers
Definitely "Reese's Peanut Butter Cups!
My favorite candy is the candy corn pumpkins. Something about them tastes better than the regular candy corns
“That’s why I looovveee, Nestle Crunch!” *CRUNCH*
Runner up is sour gummy worms, if only they weren't a master-grade jaw workout.
Such a wonderful banner pick!! Happy spooky season everyone!
Or twizzlers
(They're valid for Halloween, too!)
Anything sweet, but I do have a fondness for candy corn as nobody around me likes those so I'd always get extra!
Favorite candy is most definitely Reese's but every so often I love a good gummy worm!
Andes mints.
Also kitkats
Thank you, stay safe, and happy Halloween!
I hope y'all get to gorge on as much as you want of all your favorites!
Thank you for the chance!!
Ohh, tough call, dark chocolate M&Ms, better yet, See's Candy dark chocolate with vanilla center's buttercreams.
Also those Peelerz gummies!
Thanks for the opportunity. ^^
(Banner is super cute!!)
I think Twix bars win, but just by a little.
Rema 1000 has these chocolate covered ones with pistachio flavoring. It's damn near addictive.
rest in peace, you will be missed
I also love the chocolate-covered biscuits by Ritter Sport.
Love them XD
In Poland, we have candies called Bajeczne (‘Fabulous’). They’re kind of a cookie-based filling mixed with chocolate and covered in a chocolate coating. A bit crunchy inside and super addictive… I love them.
Edit: If somehow I win, I'll pay the international shipping <3 no worries!
Twix, of course! :3
Lemon Jolly Ranchers (until they practically discontinued those), sour gummy worms, and regular gummy worms/bears are def among my favorites
My favorite is definitely Kit-Kats, especially all the different Japanese varieties.
Well, that's a good question.... I'm not that much into candy.... But I'd say these peach-flavoured rings !
Or regular Hershey's milk chocolate 🍫
Although, in recent years I've become addicted to the specific 🐺 Werewolf Tracks 🐾 Reese's cups... 👀
No clue why they're even called that--There's no pawprints involved in the design whatsoever!
There are cartoon-y werewolf hands on the packaging, though...
Hard question to be honest, but I'll say Snickers anyday
Reese's would be my second
And I think its bueno or Hanuta
Anything orange flavored - especially gummies
Lifesavers are a classic for me.
hoping i win this for my boyfriend whose 30th birthday was yesterday!!! he's been eyeing this tablet for a while aaaa
