Limited-Edition Candy Dispenser

Alberto is a hyperactive candy junkie who can only be kept under control when his mouth is full of candy. On his travels around the world, he collects candy as souvenirs in his gigantic hat. Once, Alberto fell in love with a Belgian praline, but his craving for the sweet temptation was stronger than his love, and in the end, the praline ended up in his mouth after all. To this day, he is ashamed of this shameful act and has been unable to forget the taste of that seductive moment ever since. The “ The Candyman ” candy dispenser is part of the limited-edition series from the Circus Collection by Alessi . Designed by Marcel Wanders, it is a candy dispenser shaped like the Candy Man. The oversized hat serves as a storage space for the candies, which literally fall out of the Candyman’s mouth.

Strictly limited & & handcrafted

The “ The Candyman ” candy dispenser from Alessi is a sculptural object for connoisseurs and is available in a limited edition of 999 pieces. It consists of a total of 35 stainless steel parts, which are assembled using three different manufacturing processes. The lost-wax casting process is used for complex design elements with fine details; CNC machining is used for mechanical details requiring high precision; and the flatbed laser cutter is used for complex geometric shapes. The colored parts of the candy dispenser are painstakingly hand-painted, which is why minimal variations may occur. However, this is not a flaw—rather, it makes each individual candy dispenser a truly one-of-a-kind piece. It is the perfect gift and a special collector’s item that will last a lifetime.

Circus Collection

To complement Marcel Wanders’ Circus Collection, a series of various circus figures in strictly limited editions was created. There are 999 pieces available of each of the five circus characters: Candyman, Ringleader, Ballerina, Strongman, and The Jester. Marcel Wanders’ Circus Collection is a dreamy and imaginative world that immediately captivates every viewer.
