Is there a possibility of putting the Atomic Fireball on a Stick?
That is a great idea. Unfortunately, due to the method of manufacturing, it would be impossible to insert a stick into the candy pieces. The Atomic Fireball is a panned candy. This process involves building candy pieces from single units, such as grains of sugar, nuts, or candy centers, tossing them in revolving pans while adding the flavor, color and other candy ingredients. This process continues until the pieces become the size desired. Finally, the candy gets a high polish with an edible vegetable wax, which gives it an attractive appearance.
