lick-a-made / dipstick
SA_...@pavo.concordia.ca
I have a rather strange request to make. Remember a
candy product that had its heyday in the late '70s
(at least for me) called LICKAMADE and/or DIPSTICK?
It consisted of a package divided into three portions;
two carried flavour powder crystals (grape, cherry, etc)
and the third carried a flat stick of candy. The object
was to dip the stick into the powder and lick of the
powder over and over.
While these candy packs are still available, their
packaging has changed. Where it now pictures a group of
dip-sticking kids, it used to feature more prominently
just one character, a big round faced guy with a big
smile on his face. I am seeking out this older
packaging to be used in cover art for a 7" to be
released on cinnamon toast records (a small label out
of Halifax, Nova Scotia specializing in alternative
bands of the post-grunge variety).
If anyone can help me find this package, or knows of
a store that still stocks the old packaging, please
respond directly by e-mail:

or, send the packaging directly to my brother at
Cinnamon Toast Records (you WILL be rewarded!):

Thanks in advance for your help. I know this one's a
tough one, but I have confidence in you all!
