It is unusual at a (traditional) Jewish wedding to have candy favors.
Usually, soft candy is thrown at the groom after he is given the
opportunity to read from the Torah a week or so before the wedding.
This symbolizes, among other things, the sweet life the congregation
wishes for him and his bride. The problem with hard candy should be
obvious.
