Sapphire Candy Co.

Small batches. Bold flavor. Southern Illinois.

Handmade hard candy built around real ingredients and flavor combinations you have not seen before. Every piece is pulled and cut by hand.

The Lineup

Bowls containing a number of different spicy peppers

The Spice Rack

Bold flavor. Real heat.

Jalapeño Peach, Raspberry Chipotle, Watermelon Chile-Lime, Strawberry Guajillo, Mexican Hot Chocolate. Every Spice Rack flavor starts with something you actually want to taste and builds from there. The heat shows up, it builds, and it makes the flavor better. That is the whole idea.

Ice cream in containers in a parlor freezer

Old-Fashioned Ice Cream Parlor

The flavors you already love, made into something you can take anywhere.

Orange Cream, Mint Chocolate Chip, and more on the way. The Ice Cream Parlor line takes classic parlor flavors and builds them into small-batch hard candy with real inclusions. They dissolve slowly on purpose. That is how the flavor has time to actually show up.

Our Story

Sapphire started as an excuse to make candy for other people. At some point there were more candies than people to give them to, and that felt like a sign. Everything is still made by hand, one batch at a time, in Southern Illinois.
