    Sweet Schemes: Purple Ombre

    We love bringing something sweet to any occasion! Our Candy Buffet's are the perfect mixture of beautiful decoration and sweet treats to make any occasion memorable!  We want to provide a little inspiration for your next event with our Sweet Schemes Blog Posts! We provide an inspirational colour palate and a few candy suggestions that will take away some of the stress of planning that big event! 

     

    // Purple Ombre //

     

    If there is anything you should know about The Sugar Cube, It should be that we LOVE the colour purple. It is just such a royal, elegant and SWEET colour for any occasion; especially weddings and events! 

    What is better than the colour purple? Mixing different shades of this beautiful colour together! We love the contrast of dark purple all the way up to white! Lavender, lilac, eggplant, mauve, orchid, plum and violet are just a few shades that you can play with on your purple themed table! 

     

     

    We love purple so much, we have A LOT of suggestions for purple candies that will make your table pop! If you don't see the right shade shown below, or you want more suggestions on purple themed candy, just ask us! Purple is our thing. 

    Here are our top 5 favourite purple shades that create the perfect "Purple Ombre" feeling:

    The Candies we miss the MOST!

     

    Candy is part of our childhood. Going to the candy shop, or local convenience store, and stocking up on a bag of your favourite treats was a weekly ritual for most of us. 

     

    Sometimes, it still is. But, what ever happened to some of those candies that we loved so much? Here at the Sugar Cube, we like to have a moment of silence for all those candies that are no longer around.

     

     Here are our top five discontinued treats that we wish we could still buy:

     
    Mojo Taffy

    Yum, the sweet taste of chewy taffy! There is something pleasant about chewing on these little sugary treats. Although you cannot find these anymore, we found a substitution! Check out Millions! We find that the texture you get when you chew them is the closest you can get to that Mojos texture. They're also so delicious!

     

    Bubble Jug

    If you don't recognize these little Bubble Jug's - you will be a minority. They were everywhere! These little containers were filled with chewy bubble gum! They were pretty fun to carry around too! 

     

    Ouch – Bubble Gum

    The flavour of this gum used to last FOREVER! It used to be a hot commodity to share among your friends! Plus, it looked like band-aids and that was just TOO cool. 

     

    Dweebs

    Just as tasty as nerds! These little guys were sweet, crunchy candy that would keep you entertained! We wish we could pick up a pack of these - right now! 

     Punkys

    We are missing these tangy and delicious treats! They were one of the best to make our tongue cry for EVEN more! 


    We wish these childhood candies would come back! In the mean time, we will settle for new and delicious candies that come along!
