Speaking of old candies, maybe someone can help me. I am remembering a candy from when I was a little girl, but forgot what it was called and wondering why it disappeared of the face of the earth. Bothering me so much lately!

It looked similar to this product, same kind of shape and halfway dipped
https://www.pocky.com/products/

But it was not a cracker- definitely a candy, like sugar throughout. It was very brittle- not at all chewy, had a spiced cinnamon flavor, but not hot or burny. dipped in some sort of cream. Was usually red/pinkish but perhaps also came in blue? They were individually wrapped but came in a pack. Also pretty sure they were not cholov Yisrael. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

The 30 seconds that the reverse French manicure was in: clear nails with colored edge. It just looked like you had dirt or paint under your nails.

I've seen some of those recently so it must be back in!

Anyone remember a candy that was a hard candy but kind of chewy that had three different color triangular “sections” in it, maybe a red, an orange, a yellow, and white in between them and white around??
