There are many candies that can be used to make designs, faces & little creatures. Those licorice mixes have all sorts of shapes & colors as well as jelly beans, mikes & ikes, skittles, M&Ms, licorice shoe strings can be cut up, etc. It's endless and goes as far as your creativity. Also, look for the dusts & glitters in the cake decorating aisle of Michaels. The color gels (not the pastes) mix with batter & frosting to make amazing & intense colors. Have fun - I always do!
