A Brilliant Idea for a Candy!

Post by EarlJam » January 21st, 2011, 2:36 pm

They need to come up with a form of "water candy." Why must everything be flavored? Why not come up with a hardened form of water that one can chew on? It could be served cold, in small blocks like gum. I think this would make an awesome, refreshing product. If only I had the capital or the technology.

Eskimos invented that already.

You could even sell it in bags from freezers outside of convenience stores

Yes! Brilliant! And market them as "water rocks," meaning not each piece of water candy has to be the same size or shape!

Let's totally do this!

And just think of all the recipes that your water rocks would enhance. I bet it would be great when topped with Jack Daniels!

I buy 6lbs of this celebrated product, daily. I get it in a crushed/shaved form, so fresh it's just like snow, and munch it all day. Sometimes I like to flavor it with a special concoction of KoolAid blended with grape juice, just to give it a little body.

The ice comes from a machine that looks like this...

You could blend the water candy with fruit, juice, and/or yogurt, and even add nutritional supplements. And here's the great part... you could charge some obscene price for a 12-oz cup of the stuff.
