What Makes Our Crystal Candy Special? ✨

Crystal candy, originally from Japan and known as kohakutou, is a traditional sweet made with agar-agar. Famous for its glossy, jewel-like colours and delicate snap, it’s often called the edible crystal.

At Vivid Candy, we proudly craft the classic, traditional Japanese version of crystal candy—kohakutou—for those who love the authentic look and taste.

But we didn’t stop there. We also reimagined this classic into something uniquely Australian: Crystal Candy Cookies. Bite-sized, fun to share, and addictive like cookies, they feature a vibrant crystal shell that cracks open to reveal a gooey, tangy marshmallow centre inspired by iconic desserts.

Sweet and sour, crunchy and soft—our crystal candy delivers the perfect bite of contrast, colour, and delight.

Handmade in Brisbane and shipped Australia-wide, our collection combines the beauty of traditional kohakutou crystal candy with the fun of our signature Crystal Candy Cookies.

💥✨ Whether you want authentic Japanese-style candy or a playful modern twist, Vivid Candy brings colour, crunch, and joy to every bite.
