Sorry if anyone’s already said this, but they also do Star Tinned candies – Like the sour Mushroom Tins but, unsurprisingly, star shaped tins and star shaped candies inside. They aren’t sour but taste quite sweet.

I found them at ForbiddenPlanet online:

They are £2.99GBP each, and I have no idea if they deliver/are available in America I’m afraid.

The star tins are MUCH easier to open!! I struggled with my mushroom tin – although I thought it was worth it because I actually liked the candy inside.

one of the Super Mario candies you said you needed more information on is the Super Mario Choco Egg. It is the foil wrapped egg you have a picture of. It is milk chocolate, and about the size of an original Cadbury egg. Instead of a gooey filling, however, it contains a small plastic toy. These toys are all miniature Super Mario Bros characters.

Looks like you’ve already gotten some feedback on the Mario Egg. Here’s a place where they sell them.

They sell them on jlist.com right now, too, but that site never keeps anything in stock very long.

In response to the candy thing, I actually bought one of the Wii candy dispensers at a dollar store not long ago.

Ok, so I just bought my mushroom candy and couldn’t figure out how to open it. Thanks to google, I found your tips! Yay!! I ate one and it’s not that bad. Kinda tastes like the Smartees candies. I feel like I deserve a Gold Medal now for opening this! Woo hoo!!

Pulling straight apart was a very helpful tip! It’s on an angle so it comes out straight from the stem – not the cap. Hooray for Googling!

I just bought the little nintendo mushroom candy sour apple and the entire ride home i had my girl trying to open it. These little f*ckers are almost impossible to open BUT with simple flat head screw driver to the back of the canister (where the stalk meets the silver aluminum ring) you can easily open it again and again. ENJOY. candy sucks, but that little canister can hold other fine goods :)
