CandyCrafty
CandyCrafty adds sixteen colors of caramel, swirl lollipops, glossy caramel blocks and caramel apples with special effects to Forge worlds for 1.16.5.
What it does
Caramels come in sixteen colors. Smelting sugar in a furnace produces a yellow caramel, and the other colors are obtained by combining caramel with dyes. Caramels serve as the base for most recipes in the mod, including the lollipops, the blocks and the apples.
Caramel blocks are crafted from nine caramels and have the strength of cobblestone, so they can be used for candy-themed builds in any of the sixteen colors. The mod also adds a rainbow lollipop, made from three caramels, that restores a noticeable amount of hunger. Swirl lollipops are crafted from a caramel and a stick.
