Has anyone found candy corn in Japan? I live in toyko and still searching. Any places online in Japan you could order from ?

FBC (Foreign Buyers Club) has some, but you have to buy a case.
I saw some ridiculously overpriced candy corn at National Azabu, but if you are desperate...

There seem to be a few recipes online, if it is not for a party but for personal consumption, I'd try that.

Isn't it supposed to be October 31st? I need to know, because I'm the only person in my neighborhood who accepts trick-or-treaters.

Oct 30 may be candy corn day (and I suspect it was invented by candy manufacturers) but it is not a holiday that I have ever heard of. Halloween is October 31, and candy corn is definitely a big part of it!! :)

I just had a pack of candy corn delivered from FBC. As I thanked them by email, they replied telling me that, due to restrictions in Japan, they couldn't sell it for a long time but now they are availalble.

I was told Kaldis had candy corn. I went to the online store and didn't see it so I emailed them. They said they have it but they don't sell it online and that they could send a bag of it to the closet store to me. So I was excited. The customer support and I have been emailing and they keep me updated. They said it takes a week to get to the store. So I waited and finally got the email that it is there. I went to the one in harajuku thinking it was the store and it was kaldi but not the sasazuka one. She made a call and they said it's there. So I went to kaldi sasazuka today and the lady said they have neve done candy corn. I even showed her the email saying it's there and she just went to the back grabbed an iPad and checked it and she even said tree is no store in harajuku. There is tho. I called the kaldi number on the website and the lady just said they only accept phone calls in Japanese and if I can speak it to send a email. Stupid Kaldis I'm done with them for good!

Tilt,
I didn't bother to ask for details, but I'm sure anyone can ask them directly. I suppose it's usually artificial coloring or what not.
AngryGunit,
Buy from FBC. They were very prompt.
