A candy pumpkin is a small, pumpkin-shaped, mellow crème confection primarily made from corn syrup, honey, carnauba wax, chocolate, and sugar. Traditionally colored with an orange base and topped with a green stem[1] to make candy pumpkins largely identifiable with Halloween,[2] a candy pumpkin is considered a mellow crème by confectioners since the candy has a marshmallow flavor.[3] Sometimes called candy corn's first cousin,[4] candy pumpkins are made through a starch casting process similar to that for candy corn.[3] Brach's candy pumpkin, known by the trademarked name "Mellowcreme" Pumpkins,[5] is the most popular candy pumpkin.[3][6][7] Brach's Confections is now owned by Ferrara Candy Company.[8]
