When a heat wave hits, giant swirly lollipops are one of the best summer sweets you can reach for. With the recent hot weather coinciding with National Lollipop Day on Wednesday July 20th, don’t be a sucker – pop a giant lollipop in your mouth for a refreshing summer snack.
At Kandy King, we have swirl lollipops in a variety of flavours ideal for a summer party in the garden, or as the centrepiece of a summer birthday present for a loved one with a sweet tooth.
Measuring in at 10cm across, they’re lickers rather than suckers, and will last for a reasonable amount of time without melting in the heat. Rock lollies are made using a technique that has hardly changed in 100 years, making them a traditional gift and much-loved sweet for people of all ages.
Why we love rainbow lollipops
Out of all the different colours of swirl lollies, rainbow lollipops are the most summery, bringing to mind the bright stripes of a traditional beach ball.
These mixed fruit lollipop sweets are a firm favourite with customers too, and will instantly brighten up any summertime display – and they won’t melt in your shop window!
Rainbow lollies work well on their own or, because they are multi-coloured, you can pair them with any of our other swirly lollies to build a summery scene that suits your branding.
Why choose giant lollipops for parties?
Giant lollipops are an excellent summer party option for several reasons. Their size and bright colours make them a fun spot prize to give out during games, and you can even put players into teams by having them pick different coloured lollipops out of a bag or bucket.
Stick rock lollies into the ground or into a tray of sand for an instant ‘candy garden’ that even Willy Wonka would be proud of.
And it’s not just summer birthdays that giant lollies can cater for – at Kandy King we also have toffee apple swirly lollies, pumpkins and skulls, all of which are great for an autumn birthday party too.
Swirly lollies are not just for kids
Finally, don’t forget that grown-ups can enjoy giant swirly lollies too! Their size means big lollipops are enough to satisfy an adult-sized sugar craving, and some of the flavours are especially well suited to slightly older candy-lovers.
Our prosecco-flavour swirl lollipops make a fun addition to a summer garden party, or even to a summer wedding, where you can get your guests stuck into these bright green and yellow lollies with a taste of fizz.
Some older customers also love the more traditional flavours, including iron brew swirly lollies, refreshing lemonade flavour, or perfectly summery strawberries and cream.
The list goes on and on, and you can see all of our current stock of giant swirly lollipops here. These classic lolly sweets have seen generations of candy-lovers through summer heat waves, so stock up and add a splash of colour to your shop window, garden party or summer wedding today.
