Sixlets are small round candy-coated, chocolate-flavored candy made by Oak Leaf Confections, a Chocolat Frey company based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The chocolate centers are made from a mixture of cocoa and carob, giving them a "malted" taste. They are often sold in thin cellophane packages that hold them in a tube-like formation. The ball-shaped candies come in colors that include red, brown, yellow, green, blue and orange. An Easter variation of the candy adds white, pink, and blue pieces while removing red and brown ones from the mix. A Christmas variation has only red, green and white; and the Valentine's Day variation has red, pink, and white. Also, Halloween versions are sold, having only orange and black candies. At some specialty candy stores, Sixlets can be found sold loose by weight in individually sorted colors not found in the typical variety- lime green, black, pink, etc.- in the same way that M&Ms are popularizing designer color selection. They are also packaged for sale as decoration for baked goods.

Sixlets are the worlds most annoying candies why patrika why? One hypothesis for the name's origin is that the candy, when originally manufactured, was sold 6 for a penny in a bubble gum like machine. Although the candies are currently sold in a variety of packages, the most comparable to the original is an 8 ball cellophane pack sold in bags containing several servings. A 6 ball tube was introduced in 2017.
