You have to invent a new type of candy or dessert, but if it's physically impossible or another commenter can prove it already exists, you lose. What are you making?
y'all're going about this all wrong, trying to come up with things that sound gross. the real strategy is to describe something you wish existed but doesn't. then if someone points out that it does, you "lose" by finding out about a food you would really like but were unaware of.
anyway, mine is coffee chocolate chip walnut ice cream (even though apparently op says new ice cream flavors don't count). so if anyone knows where I can buy coffee chocolate chip walnut ice cream, come own me so hard, I'll be devastated
I just buy different flavors that will go together, and overlap, so when one carton is 1/2 empty I’ll get a new flavor that will mix in. So there’s usually a 1/2 carton overlap.
Also mixins like chopped nuts and sauces are good now and then too.
If it's bad, doesn't it stop being candy? Candy has a half-life, decaying into just "food" by the time nobody regards it as a treat - something invented to be unenjoyable can be considered to decay completely in less than a second, from the moment it gets off production line.
Completely disagree. Show me an example of "candy" becoming "food". The definition of candy is basically a concentrated sugar product. Lots of people hate black licorice, but that doesnt make it not-candy.
Semi-relevant: I think that pancakes (not crepes) and waffles should be considered dessert, but here people eat them as the main course or part of the main course. I don't know if they were ever considered dessert though.
Also semi-relevant: fruit. Multiple kinds chopped in a bowl? Dessert. One whole singular item? A healthy snack/food item.
If we are allowed to count things that aren't sold as candy, this technically does exist. They sell bitterants for various things. Like to stop a child sucking their thumb or discourage pets from chewing/eating something.
I'm thinking a puff pastry roll filled with a minty sweet creamy filling and chocolate chips. That shit would be bomb, tell me it exists already so I can get some!
I don't think that already exists, but it seems like all you'd have to do is mash up some peppermint patties and put it into the center of a cinnamon roll sans cinnamon.
Picture a small edible prism made of ultra-thin layers of sugar glass and gelatinized starch, but the trick is in the internal structure of each layer contains flavor “micro-reservoirs” embedded in lipid membranes tuned to dissolve at different osmotic thresholds, not time.
I'm gonna shred some vegan chocolate and put it with tomato sauce on a lightly toasted flat dough, then stick it in the oven. Pizza with chocolate instead of cheese.
Recently I tried some sea salt vegan chocolate, it was amazing. Chocolate and salt go way better together than I thought. So add that to savoury bread and a little tomato tang, I think it's a great idea. It's like a salty croissant.
I'm thinking of something like an asthma inhaler, but you don't inhale and instead of medicine being ejected when activated a fine powder of concentrated flavor comes out. The powder flavors your saliva for a few seconds to a minute. And, since rumor has it that 50% of taste is smell, it a complimentary scent will also be exposed when activating.
Tasty flavor treat with minimal or possible even 0 calories.
My only concern is you will be breathing these chemicals in, so if there is any possibility of it being dangerous to you when inhaled, then that would be a bad thing.
Plus, this kind of sorta already exists in the form of vapes.
Candy that smells like the house I grew up in specifically. Totally possible, but guaranteed not to exist. (Especially because there would almost certainly be no market for it, even including me)
Personal sized pie crust, with one scoop of vanilla ice cream. Take one tablespoon of low-sodium soy sauce, and mix in brown sugar until saturated. Drizzle the resulting syrup over the ice cream. Don't know what to call it, but I'd try it.

You completely understand the premise, i hope i worded it okay
I made coffee and walnut biscuits once. Lovely recipe, and chocolate chips would be an excellent addition. Yum!
buddy pls

Bitter Boys. Think Sour Patch kids, but instead of being coated in sour powder, it's extreme bitterness.
Kind of sounds awesome. Bitter sweets are special
I'll take it, I guess. I was just trying to think of something so bad nobody would ever make it.
Some liquorice definitely counts as bitter to me

I mean, I was talking about candy specifically, not dessert as a whole.

If we are allowed to count things that aren't sold as candy, this technically does exist. They sell bitterants for various things. Like to stop a child sucking their thumb or discourage pets from chewing/eating something.
But has anyone put it on gummy candy?
Apparently, yes.
Haribo does make bitter flavored gummy bears sold by prank shops.
Aww dang.
Not exactly what you asked, but Myreli makes a bitter melon flavored gummy.
The bitterants to stop thumb sucking just made me like bitter flavors lol
I did stop eventually but not because of those. They tried so much.
De-tangled cotton candy. Just a single razor thin thread of sugar like a mile long.
Sounds kind of like dragon's beard candy.
I just love this description so much ❤️
Honey butter aerogel with suspended almonds and pistachios in a dark chocolate cone.
Nice try, Slugworth...
Stir-fry flavoured ice cream.
I don't know if a new flavour of an existing confection counts.
OP?
That's a good point 🤔 I don't think it counts as a new type of dessert, sorry
Wokhei flavored ice cream would go stupid hard 🤤
With some umami soy syrup drizzled on top
A restaurant did this amazing tempura eggplant with a black vinegar caramel, and we saved the sauce for the icecream... It was very, very good.
We're toeing the line here, and the next step is to release stir fry flavoured stir-fried ice cream

Also, to me, it kind of sounds disgusting.
Phase-Order Candy Prism.

I am intrigued! Bring it to shark tank/dragons den

Somebody call the FBI

If you have to eat that, you lose anyway.

sulfur hexafluoride poprocks.
There's a good chance they'll still pop and sizzle a little bit, but the gas they release will cause your voice to lower.
Sounds very fun. I'm in
Nice try, Wonka

Somewhere around 2010, there was a chocolate spray.
This, but with thc added.
Are we reverse engineering vapes
More like a fine powder version of sour candy mouth spray.
...

Chocolate Epstein files
Candy that smells like the house I grew up in specifically. Totally possible, but guaranteed not to exist. (Especially because there would almost certainly be no market for it, even including me)
This is based off a candy in a book, that I can't tell if has ever been made:
Under its tamarind glaze, luscious pepsin-flavored nougat, chock-full of tangy candied cubeb berries, and a chewy camphor-gum center.
Chocolate-coated tacks.
Silk worm cotton candy. Infuse the silk with sugar and flavors. Roll it into a ball and shove a stick in it.
avocado flavor bubblegum
Existential horror topped with whipped cream.
I could go for some mint chocolate syrup poured over vanilla ice cream. That would slap. Please make me lose.
I'm going to steal Strong Bad's idea here. https://homestarrunner.com/sbemails/149-candy-product
I very much appreciate the candy periodic table

Call it the BoxOfFeet
I've got it. The Sweatypie Sundae.
You know, because it's salty. Like sweat. And it's a pie.
Hard-candy lozenges flavored with my DNA.
So you're just gonna be standing on the production line, cranking your hog all day? Weird kink, but okay
It's a small-batch, artisinal affair.
I don't know other than to say that we need more savory candies for those of us who aren't into sweets. And crackers don't count.
Nuts? Beef jerky? Those almonds covered with flavored salt (salt n vinegar, Sriracha, pickle, etc), licorice. Bitter dark chocolate?
Beef jerky is a good one if you make it yourself, but the commercially available options have a lot of sugar.
Something so blue it hurts to look at.
Never seen cinnamon pudding beforr but it wouldn't be very difficult to make
Whipped seafoam and cattail mousse.
cum flavored taffy
Semla with rose jam filling
Strawberrys frozen over with alternating thin layers of chocolate and mascarpone!
we're making cherry glazed fruit cake flavored from acetone.
uhh, just like a vanilla cake. no way somebody else goes with that
The question was, invent a new type of dessert, and you lose if someone else can prove that that dessert already exists.
ah dammit. then prove I didn't invent cake! 😤
chocolate covered jellybeans boiled in sugar and gumified
Healthy chocolate pudding!
