# Luxury Candy Necklaces Mctega Creates Jagged and Colorful Jewelry Designs By Rachel | Published 2009-07-29 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mctega-jewelry-colorful References: [pipeline.refinery29](http://pipeline.refinery29.com/the_goods/colorful_chunky_gelatinous_jew.php#more) & [Mctega](http://Mctega.com/) I miss the days when it was acceptable to wear candy around your neck. While I may never reclaim the days of truly [eatable jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/candyinspired), these designs by Mctega are a close second (and less sticky). The Mctega jewelry line looks like [colorful sugar cubes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/candy-table) strung on a chain. The jagged designs in bright [neon colors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-gogo) are a fun (and grown up) way to wear your colorful candy love. Take a look at Mctega’s not-so-eatable, but definitely fun, collection of jewelry. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.6/10 - Popularity: 71% | Activity: 58% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/jewelry) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Colorful Jewelry Designs:** Opportunities for creative and playful jewelry options that break traditional styles and offer vibrant colors to clients. - **Retro Fashion Accessories:** Reviving nostalgic fashion can generate interest and appeal to consumers who appreciate vintage looks. - **Edible-inspired Fashion:** Blending fashion and food could create innovative designs that offer consumers unique experiences and sensations. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Jewelry Manufacturing:** Expanding jewelry design options to appeal to a broader range of consumers who seek fun, colorful jewelry pieces. - **Retail and Fashion:** Introducing new wearable fashion pieces that offer playful options inspired by retro or food-related designs could appeal to younger consumers. - **Food and Beverage:** Unique collaborations between the food industry and fashion could create innovative designs by incorporating edible ingredients into jewelry or clothing. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Jewelry-Revealing Rock Candies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mschf-4.md) - [Crystal Seaweed Candies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/misaky-tokyo.md) - [Confectionery-Inspired Ring Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brilliant-earth.md) - [Conversation Candy Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zales-x-sweethearts.md) - [Collaborative Ice Cream Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iconic-ice-cream.md) - [Gummy Candy-Inspired Eyewear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jelly-collection.md) - [Nostalgic Crayon-Inspired Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nadine-ghosn-crayola-pack.md) - [Y2K-Inspired Flower Necklaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/foufou.md) - [Wearable Sculptural Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3dtcable-collection.md)
