Andie’s Speciality Sweets is an Etsy boutique that has re-made your typical candy necklace into more elaborate pieces.
The pieces are a nice modern take on the traditional child's treat. Instead of just candy beads, Andie's works the candy into flowers, keys, buttons and more, relying on ribbons to hold the necklace together. Each piece is attached through royal icing and can be worn and consumed. These necklaces are the perfect give away gift for soirees. Andie's Specialty Sweets also includes other sugar pieces such as buttons and nature-like sugar confections.
The Etsy boutique prides themselves on their elaborate sugar work and states that "Our goal is not just a pretty edible, not just a palatable one either, but one that is visually and tastefully pleasurable in all aspects."
