The Art of Pick + Mix: Crafting your Perfect Candy Bag

At lil sweet treat, we believe creating the perfect pick + mix candy bag is an art. Whether treating yourself or gifting a friend, the key is balancing flavors + textures for a delicious experience.

1. Start with Flavor

Choose from sweet, sour, fruity, and tangy flavors sourced from around the world. Whether you crave bold fruitiness, zesty citrus, or comforting sweetness, consider how flavors compliment each other.

+ Marshmallowy: Fluffy, airy, and light
