For me, Pixy Stix are a candy that I loved as a kid but have no desire to revisit as an adult. If you have more nostalgia for them than I do and want to try a grown-up twist on them, check out Chow.com’s recipes for what they’re calling Trixy Stix.

The Trixy Stix have the same sugary base, but their flavors have been upgraded to things like Chile-Tamarind, Beet-Rose, and Yuzu.
