Can you post a link? Never heard of Chupa Chup.

I think that it is custom. You might check out Bowfin Printworks guide to script fonts for something similar.

The Chupa Chups logo was designed by Salvador Dali in 1969, although I don't know if he hand designed the font also. I would have to guess that he designed the whole thing, but don't quote me on that.

I do know that they're delicious!

I agree! Could you please provide some citations to verifiable evidence
that Dali designed the Chupa Chups logo?

A Google search on Salvador Dali Chupa Chup returned about 3,500 hits.

Here's one:

Believe it or not, I learned that fact because it was an answer on Final Jeopardy! one night. I've since read all about it at a variety of Internet sites. Ramón's Google search idea is exactly what I did to find out about it.

I believe he did their second logo because the company was in business for about a decade before he designed the current one.
