Unwrap a candy and enjoy its chewy texture and fruity taste. For baking, they can be chopped and added to cookies, brownies, or cakes to introduce pockets of flavor. They can also be melted down to create a glaze or sauce for desserts, though care should be taken as they can become very sticky when heated. Some people even use them to decorate the outside of cakes and cupcakes.
