Wikipedia
Candy corn is a candy most often found in the United States and Canada, popular primarily around Halloween. The three colors of the candy – a broad yellow end, a tapered orange center, and a pointed white tip – mimic the appearance of kernels of corn. Each piece is approximately three times the size of a real kernel from a ripe or dried ear.
Candy corn is made primarily from sugar, corn syrup, confectioner's wax, artificial coloring and binders.

Flying on one of his brothers' bicycles, singing out his message to this girl, and this girl, and this girl, delicious as a sticky handful of Little Red's favorite candy, candy corn, he's the kind of tough-jawed hillbilly kid who when his bicycle's front wheel hits a pothole he hardly feels the jolt and kick in his teeth, just flying along so fast and happy and rightleeling he doesn't need to think where he's going, or why, until he gets there.
