Real Ant Candy |Hard Candy Novelty Insect Gift
Real Ant Candy is the gift that gets a reaction.
Each 10g pack of hard candy holds real, edible Tyrant Ants suspended, so you can see exactly what you are about to taste. It is a genuine talking point and a brilliant novelty gift for the adventurous eater, the friend who has tried everything, or anyone who loves a bit of daring at the lolly jar. Handcrafted in Australia by insect protein farm Circle Harvest in collaboration with Sticky Lollies, it is playful on the outside and thoughtful underneath.
Behind the fun sits a serious idea. Edible insects need far less land, water and feed than livestock: a sustainable ant-sized solution to an oversized problem. This curiosity and clever problem solving is exactly what the Australian Museum stands for. Since 1827 the Museum has studied the natural world and championed science that helps solve real challenges, from biodiversity to sustainability. This little pack of candy carries that same message in a delicious and memorable way.
An easy stocking filler, party favour, secret gift or conversation starter, give it, dare a friend, or simply taste something new.
