XtoysLovers Candy Bra and G-String Set Review: A Sweet Bit of Fun
Editor's opinion
This is an edible novelty set threaded from strawberry-flavoured sweets, meant to raise a smile and be nibbled away rather than worn seriously. It makes a cheeky gift or stocking filler, but the elasticated-thread construction means the fit is approximate and it is genuinely a one-use item.
The Lovers Candy Bra and G-String Set is not trying to be underwear in any real sense. It is a grown-up take on the candy necklaces and bracelets from the corner sweet shop, threaded into the rough shape of a bra and G-string so a couple can share a laugh before sharing the sweets.
What a buyer is really weighing here is expectation. If you approach it as a piece of lingerie you will be disappointed; if you approach it as a playful, edible bit of theatre with a built-in punchline, it does exactly what it sets out to do.
The good and the bad
What works
- Entirely edible, so the novelty ends in a shared treat
- Familiar strawberry sweet-shop flavour that most people enjoy
- No batteries or charging, just open and use
- An easy, affordable-feeling gift or stocking filler
- One-size stretch threading suits most body types
What to be aware of
- A single-use item that does not last beyond one occasion
- Sugary sweets can leave sticky residue on skin and bedding
- Fit is approximate and can gape or sag on the frame
- Not suitable for anyone avoiding sugar or with sweet-related allergies
Buy it if
Couples who like a bit of playful humour in the bedroom, and anyone hunting for a cheeky gift, hen-do favour or stocking filler that will get a laugh.
Skip it if
Anyone wanting actual lingerie, or a lasting keepsake, should look to fabric sets instead. Those avoiding sugar, or with allergies to sweets, colourings or flavourings, should give it a miss.
Design and Materials
The whole set is built the same way as classic candy jewellery: hundreds of small strawberry-flavoured sweets threaded onto elastic cord and shaped into a bra and matching G-string. That construction is the key to understanding it. The elastic gives some stretch, which is how a single size can claim to suit most, but it also means the pieces hang loosely rather than supporting or shaping anything.
Because it is made entirely from candy, it behaves like candy. Warmth, moisture and handling will soften the sweets, so this is something to open and use fairly promptly rather than something to keep.
How It Is Meant to Be Used
The intended use is straightforward and the marketing is honest about it: put it on, enjoy the reaction, and let your partner nibble the sweets away. The fun is in the shared moment, not in wearing it for any length of time.
Treat the fit as part of the joke. On some frames the bra will sit neatly, on others it will gape, and the G-string is more suggestion than garment. Going in expecting a novelty rather than a fitting keeps the mood light, which is the entire point.
Care, Cleanliness and Practicalities
There is very little to care for because it is a one-use consumable. That said, a few practical thoughts are worth having in advance. Sugar dissolves against warm skin, so expect a little stickiness, and it is sensible to have it near where you can wipe or rinse afterwards rather than over fresh sheets.
As with any food product, check the packaging for ingredients, flavourings and colourings before use, particularly if either partner has allergies. Being edible is the selling point, but it also means the usual common sense about eating sweets applies.
How It Compares
Against fabric novelty lingerie, this set trades durability and fit for a genuinely different experience: the edible angle is its whole reason to exist. A lacy peekaboo set can be worn again and photographs better, but it does not come with a punchline you can eat.
Within the edible-gift category it sits alongside body paints, chocolate body toppers and flavoured accessories. Compared to those, the candy set is more about the visual gag and the shared unthreading than about taste alone, so choose it when the laugh matters as much as the flavour.
The bottom line
As a piece of lingerie this is not the point, and judging it on fit or longevity misses what it is. As a playful, edible gift that ends in a shared strawberry treat, it delivers a genuine giggle, and that is exactly the reason to buy it. Go in expecting fun, not fashion, and it earns its place.
Frequently asked questions
Is the whole set really edible?
Yes. Both the bra and the G-string are threaded from strawberry-flavoured sweets, and the intended use is to nibble it away once it has served its purpose. As with any food product, check the ingredients on the packaging before use.
Will it fit me?
It is designed as one size to suit most, using stretchy threading rather than tailored cups or a fitted waist. Treat the fit as approximate and part of the fun; it will sit better on some frames than others.
Can I wear it for a while or save it for later?
It is best used promptly. Being made of candy, the sweets soften with warmth and handling, so this is a one-occasion novelty rather than something to store or reuse.
Does it need batteries or charging?
No. There is nothing to power, charge or set up. You simply open the packaging and use it.
Is it messy?
Sugar can leave a little stickiness against warm skin, so it is sensible to have somewhere to wipe or rinse afterwards and to keep it clear of fresh bedding if you would rather avoid residue.
