Candy Corneliussen loves candy corn. She has candy corn pants, a candy corn hat, candy corn jewelry, and candy corn decor all around her home. In fact, some of her candy corn inspiration stays up year-round, while other items, like her candy corn pumpkin, only make an appearance in the fall.
After all, with a name like Candy Corneliussen, it’s no wonder that this orange and yellow candy has a special place in her life.
“When I worked as an elementary school reading interventionist, the kids called me Ms. Candy Corn,” she says, adding that she’d bag some sweet nuggets to hand out as rewards for her students.
Candy eats the candies straight out of the bag or adds them to her Chex mix for a sweet-salty treat for friends. And to make a simple snack for herself, she does something pretty clever: She sticks a piece of candy corn in a Bugle for a quick, easy bite that tastes great.
