A '''Candy Pop''', originally called '''Candy Cane''' by [[Russ T.]], is a blue and turquoise-striped object found in ''[[Paper Mario]]'' and its sequel, ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. They bear a resemblance to the dome-shaped hills seen in the backgrounds of various ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' titles.

Russ T. mentions that there are rumors that tell that if [[Mario]] does "something" for the Candy Canes, one of the Candy Canes will give Mario a reward. This Candy Cane is found on [[Pleasant Path]] in the separation of paths near the bridge that leads to the [[Koopa Bros. Fortress]]. If Mario walks or runs around this Candy Cane, it will follow Mario with its sight and throw [[Heart Point|HP]]-recovering [[Heart (item)|heart]]s around the area. It also plays the [[Super Star|Starman]] theme when Mario runs around it.

In ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'', there is a Candy Pop in [[Petal Meadows]] that will drop a [[Horsetail]] if it is hammered ten times, as mentioned by [[Wonky]]. The Candy Pops also appear during battles as minor background elements in both ''Paper Mario'' and ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' in their respective environments.

Candy Pops were going to appear as background scenery in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'', as seen in a [[List of Paper Mario: Sticker Star pre-release and unused content|pre-release footage]] shown at E3 2010, but they were removed from the final game.
