How to Celebrate National Candy Day

Treat Yourself to Your Favorites

Visit your local candy shop or supermarket and stock up on your go-to treats—whether that’s creamy chocolate bars, chewy caramels, or sour gummies.

Try Something New

Step outside your comfort zone by sampling international candies or gourmet options you’ve never tried before. It’s a great way to explore different cultures through their confections.

Make Homemade Candy

Experiment in the kitchen with simple candy recipes, such as fudge, chocolate truffles, or candy-coated apples. Making sweets at home can be a fun family activity or a bonding moment with friends.

Share the Sweetness

Surprise coworkers, classmates, or neighbors with a small candy bag or jar of treats. Acts of sweetness—both literal and kind—make the day even more meaningful.

Learn About Candy History

Use the day to explore how your favorite candies were invented or how classic brands came to be. It’s fascinating to discover the stories behind iconic treats.

Host a Candy-Themed Party

Set up a colorful candy buffet, play candy trivia, or watch movies that feature sweets—like Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory.
