Hi Cody,

Thanks for this link. I think you should trademark the name Candyfiori before somebody steals it; it has, as they say, potential!

I spent a lot of my childhood in a mining village in Scotland where, in those days, candy was about the only thing worth eating. My uncle had a small sweet shop (translation: candy store) in the village square and used to make his own version of this, but he wasn't as good at it as the guys from Montréal in your video.

Almost every seaside resort in England used to have its own little factory producing these tubes of candy, which for some reason are called rock. Blackpool and Brighton were probably the most famous. One of the best English novels of the twentieth century is called Brighton Rock; it's a suitably gloomy book.

Now the stuff seems to get used quite a lot for advertising purposes (see the second pic from a factory in Blackpool), which is why you should trademark the name!

All the best,

Will
