Tips on how to make a candy bag:
Buy your favorite candies. Our recommendations on candy are Werthers, gummies (not the ones with sugar and sour stuff on it) ginger chimes and jelly beans. Don’t buy chocolate or skittles due to melting. The best candies are the ones in wrappers, but you have to carry them out after. Don’t place your candy bags in the sun or its everything melts. Don’t leave candy bags out side at night or else squirrels will get at it and you will find the remains of a candy bag at the edge of your camp with very hyper squirrels running around it.
