Candy Envy - Shimmer Light Blue Gumballs - 1 Inch - Approximately 113 Gumballs Per 2lb Bag - Bulk Light Blue Candy - North American Made & Kosher Certified

I used these for a candy bar for a graduation party. They are soft and a great texture when chewing. The color is just like the pictures.

These are just delightful! The taste is sweet, but not overpowering and they have an excellent, satisfying texture. The entire bagful arrived with a nice fresh sound -stale gumballs sound 'clicky' when you pour them into the machine, but fresh ones make a sort of deeper, bonkier noise, since they have more moisture inside and the hollow interior walls of the gumball are softer within the hard outer shell- and over the delightfully few weeks these took to be consumed, they retained their fresh taste, soft chew and appealing shine throughout. They are a popular favorite and users of the gumball machine frequently expressed joy when they "got a shiny! It's a blue one!"Size-wise, they're about the same diameter as any other 25-cent gumballs I've seen. They're shiny, with a lovely pearlescent finish that appeals deeply to young people, and I heard them described as, alternately, 'mermaid gumballs,' 'ender pearl ones,' 'shiiiiiny bluuuue ones' and, perhaps disturbingly, but not if you've read the books they were referencing, 'Death's Eyeballs.' (A student put in four quarters and two of them were these blue shiny ones, kiddo excitedly held them up to their face and in the deepest voice they could, recited a quote from the late Terry Pratchett's portrayal of Death. Some of their classmates were puzzled, a couple were horrified, their crush was utterly delighted -as the kid had begun reading Discworld purely to impress them- and I, a longtime Pratchett reader, was so pleased they knew the whole quote by heart that I gave them another quarter on the spot.) Other fine things I have been told this specific color of gumball is good for, or have, in some cases seen them used for, include:-The nucleus of a cell in an entirely edible model a student made from diverse snacks-Rimaru Tempest themed party treats (???)-Isekai slime familiar for an adventurer Barbie (I sometimes watch the anime my students recommend. I sometimes regret my life choices, but not always.)-Slicing the gumball in half with the clip part of a pen, licking both sides, rubbing them against one's forehead until they stuck, then excitedly announcing, to classmates, that one possessed two of the shape of candy it is, in the color it is, and expecting others to be amused, despite not actually having any idea whatsoever why the four-letter terms for spheres of an azure hue are considered humorous. One of the better teachable moments of my career, I think, as I asked the class what was funny, why it was funny, and asked them to explain it to me, which led to them learning not just about which humor is and is not appropriate for the workplace, but also how to phrase references to topics which sometimes must be mentioned for reasons of imminent safety but are not politely spoken of with explicit or informal terminology, in a dignified and polite fashion. Only unfortunate result being that a different student later apologized for their homework being "approximately fifty percent gluteus maximus, effort-wise."-Candy salad ingredient (if you don't know what candy salad is, ask someone Gen-Z or younger. I maintain we Elder Millennials just called it sugarbuzz potluck when we did the same thing, but The Kids tell me there are subtle differences.)-Boring a hole through the gumball with a straightened-out paperclip, stringing it onto a candy necklace of six white beads on black licorice like a central pearl, wearing it for some time, then eating the entire piece of jewelry and chewing the gumball in front of a horrified substitute teacher when said sub refused a request for a bathroom pass. (Absolute legend.)-Blowing absolutely massive bubbles (your mileage may vary, but I clocked one at a full eleven inches across.)-Common everyday gum-chewing-Gingerbread house decoration-Adding blue eyeballs to a cake someone has used black, white and different shades of gray icing to draw the Grim Reaper, surrounding it with some Discworld books with a quickness and then running away so the person who is sensitive about their age thinks their coworkers are thoughtful and remembered their favorite book series, rather than being kinda dickish on a milestone birthday. (This wasn't my workplace, thank goodness, but teachers do work second jobs and sometimes colleagues will get a snack or some candy from the same places the kids do between jobs, which leads to fun, weird times at the bookstore.)-Apparently there's something in Minecraft they look 'exactly like,' and that's good for people who play that.So, yeah. If you need gumballs and want them to be light blue, pearlescent shiny or both, or just don't care and want them to be tasty, these are an excellent choice.

They was so soft. Taste was great, we love the color for a baby shower. And they was easy to chew not hard at all. I would order these again.

Well, that was the question to win the prize! I bought these for a baby shower for a little boy and if they guessed the right amount they won. They are beautiful, delicious gumballs with a shiny coating...very pretty. They had a nice flavor, but with any gum product the gum got hard after awhile. They were perfect for what we wanted them to be.

Perfect for what I need

Great product. Fresh kids loved them!

Perfect for the blue theme for my daughters baby shower centerpiece!

Great
