Candy eyes
There are 10 products.
Candy eyes are the easiest way to give your bakes some personality. A pair of eyes is all it takes: a cupcake becomes a monster, a biscuit an animal and a cake a funny character. In this category you will find candy eyes in different shapes and sizes: round and oval eyes, Wilton candy eyes in mini, midi and maxi, and bloody and bandaged eyes for Halloween.
Which candy eyes suit your project?
The size of the eyes determines the effect. Small eyes suit cake pops, mini muffins and biscuits, larger eyes suit cupcakes and cakes. Mix several sizes and your monsters will look even funnier.
- Round candy eyes in a pack of 64 for larger quantities
- Oval candy eyes in a pack of 32 for expressive characters
- Wilton candy eyes in 57 g bags in mini, midi and maxi

Ideas for children's birthdays and Halloween
Candy eyes are a big hit at children's birthdays: for dino, monster or animal parties, place the eyes on frosting coloured green, blue or brown and add horns or ears made of fondant if you like. At Halloween, turn cupcakes into mummies with bandaged eyes or decorate your cake with bloody eyes, to match other motifs from Halloween sugar decorations & sprinkles. On biscuits, press the eyes into the icing while it is still wet; on buttercream and ganache they hold with a gentle press. On moist creams, add the eyes just before serving.
Candy eyes are also perfect for spontaneous baking sessions with children. Put out different sizes in small bowls and let the children create their own monsters, caterpillars or animals. Because the eyes are ready-made, no tools or modelling are needed. Decorating cupcakes and biscuits becomes part of the party programme, and every child takes home a personalised treat.
