You know the scene in Willy Wonka where they walk into the giant land made entirely of candy…

Yeah, that’s candy.

It’s all edible and they say, tasty too.  Andies Specialty Sweets: go check them out… I’ll wait.  (Oh, and they have some ready to ship wares for Valentines Day!  Your foodie lover would be… uh… stoked.  I’m going with stoked.)

And because I love to know what inspires great artists to make their stuff, here’s a bit about artist Andie Moore:

“In general, I am inspired by imagery and emotion, whether it be others’ artistic expressions and renderings of the world around them, or a chilling evening with the smell of wet leaves and smoke pluming from chimneys. Everything contains a sensory response and almost a need to translate it to the sugary realm,” Andie said.

In addition to a sense of whimsy, the element of surprise and wonder at candy in disguise give the treats a real sense of humor.

“I’ve always relished shock value, in the purest sense, and it’s manifested in my life at every stage,” Andie said. “In my youth, I accomplished this by dying my hair every color of the rainbow. Now, the intrigue of sweet conspiracies has captivated me, finding pleasure in wielding and dispensing sugary delights that tantalize with illusion.”
