Candy Island Flapjack Novels & Stories

’ I had no idea why he kept locking eyes with me until he grabbed the coffee cups on the table and slightly swept his hand against mine. He returned with another cup of coffee and asked, 'Have you made your choice?” “Adrian, you still don't have a favorite?” “If you are going to make me choose, then I'd have to ask…” I turned to Franklyn. “Is there a way she can get all flavors on the cake? If one is too small, then make it three.” I turned to Isabel and she nodded like a cute child who just got a perfect gift from Santa. “I love it.” Isabelle smiled so much that her eyes began to glow.

His thumb pressed firmly against my lips, and he rubbed them forcefully. "From today on, this is all you get for all three meals." As he spoke, he pulled out a lollipop from the storage compartment. It was strawberry-flavored. It was pink, and it looked sweet. However, the top of the lollipop was shaped like a collar. I stared at it. My brain completely shut down. It was strawberry-flavored and pink, but the top molded into a collar shape and was even attached to a short candy chain. Was that thing even meant for humans to eat?

Caramel apples, popcorn, and freshly grilled meat filled my nostrils. Lily was practically bouncing with excitement, her small fingers clutching onto Damien’s hand as she tugged him forward. She was our navigator, leading us to any booth that caught her eye. We spent the next hour indulging in festival treats. I got a stick of cotton candy and decided to try out meat skewers, while Lily munched on one sweet thing to the other. I was surprised she wasn’t full. “Mommy, can we get those chocolate figurines?” “You going to get a stomach ache if you keep eating all these sweets.”

"Of course, that rollercoascer!" "Rollercoaster. Please keep holding on my hand. I don't want us to get separated." Kaleela nodded and follow him obediently. Everybody looks like they are having fun. Several food store selling so many interesting meals. Cotton candy, roasted sweet potato, baked calamari and anything else. "Seems like Baron Ambrose didn't need to think about money anymore." Kaleela said when they're already queueing in front of the rollercoaster entrance. Grant shrugged, "I'm not certain. Cecilia still has so many unfinished thing for this Island. So, Baron choose to save the income for it, and he worked really hard."

Today is the day of the Candy Wonderland party to raise funding for the women’s shelter and the children’s hospital. The ole ladies and locals have really outdone themselves. The clubhouse and club grounds look magical. Giant pink and white cane canes stand on either side of the clubhouse steps. There are big lollipops in various colours and individual candies decorated all around. Some hanging from the branches of trees and in the grass on display. There are huge ice cream cones, donuts, cakes, balloons with confetti that look like sugar strands, giant gummy bears, jelly beans that are little chairs. The place would give the witch from Hansel and Gretel a serious case of envy.

“I suppose it depends on the kind of sweets.” “In that case, you have to try this. My aunt is one of those business owners I told you about. Liliya’s Bakery has about a dozen stores on the island, so I’m sure you’ve heard of it. She’s expanding to the states next year. This honey cake is her best-seller.” He sliced a small cube with his fork and skewered it. Holding it out, he smirked. “She’d be truly devastated if you didn’t try it. All of my friends have.” Playing nice I reached for the fork, but he yanked it away.

Candy asked, not bothering to pick up her menu. “I wasn’t picky, mostly veggies.” Annie sat down the menu, looking over at Candy, “What type of food do you like?” Candy leaned closer to Annie, breathing in her scent. “I used to love orange slices, dipped in chocolate. My Jiji would bring them to me and my brother every holiday when she would come to visit.” “What can I get you two ladies this evening?” Their waitress asked, pulling them out of their little bubble. “Oh, um. I’ll have a coke.” Candy said, then looked at Annie.

I made some butterflies out of fondant and used some marshmallows for decoration. "This is incredible, Nola! Just looking at the cake makes me feel like I'm 18 again!" Mamita yelled. She approached me and took both of my hands in hers. "You're incredible, darling! You're a lifesaver! "she exclaimed as she clapped her hands

That was all it ever was. The car started moving smoothly and silently, the engine barely a whisper under the armored frame. Jasper reached over again, placed a small wrapped candy in my hand. “Have some more,” he said quietly."Good for the body" I looked at him, trying to read the game behind the gesture, but his face was calm and almost gentle. He’d been giving me candy every hour or so throughout our flight, little wrapped pieces of expensive, custom-made sweetness, the kind that cost more than most people’s monthly rent. Ingredients flown in from rare orchards, hand-crafted by some private chocolatier who probably signed NDAs in blood.

—I'll give them the snacks so they can accommodate them and I'll make them the hamburgers and sandwiches. I had a bag of chocolates with me, it was the one that I had brought to Flavia; so I arranged them in the basket. Martha gave us two bags of chips, three bags of churritos, and two bottles of strawberry soda. The bottles were more or less big. He put three plates on the bar for us to pour the trinkets and two glasses. He also gave us four packets of Oreo cookies and two yogurts. "I prepared things for you." He goes to the kitchen.
