  • Old fashioned Barley pops. Our best seller during the holidays.
  • Our 100% EDIBLE sugar gems are so clear that we're continuously being asked, "Are these really edible!?"

  • We have hundreds of different lollipops to choose from!

Living the Sweet Life

I'm a rule breaker. Saying something can't be done only makes me want to prove you wrong. HA! I believe recipes are there as a guide, but it's up to us to take them, change them, and turn them into something spectacular! My lollipop recipe/processing method is my very own creation. The end result is a glass-like, crystal clear product that is sure to impress! They are available by custom order in over 20 delicious flavors!

"Awesome seller, beautiful product. It's a tradition to give my 82 year old Mom Barley Pops for Christmas and these are by far, the best I've ever purchased for her. She will be thrilled." Elizabeth G.

"I am in tears. These bring me back to my childhood. I can't wait to see everyones face on Christmas morning when they dig in their stockings. Thank you so much for bringing back the good old days (I am 58 but want my children and grandchild to know the beautiful and tasty things in life). You are a blessing. Merry Christmas to you and yours from a warm and humid Texas" Terri K.

Returns and exchange details
• Due to FDA regulations, edibles cannot be resold. Therefore, I cannot accept returns. NO EXCEPTIONS. Please read the description of each item in full and ask questions prior to ordering. I want everyone to love their purchase! :-)

• ORDER CANCELLATIONS:
If you would like to cancel an order, please contact me ASAP. A full refund will be issued as long as your order hasn't been processed. In the event that your CUSTOM order has already been processed, it will no longer be eligible for a cancellation/refund. Thank you for understanding. :-)

• DAMAGE/BREAKAGE CAUSED BY CARRIER:
I take every precaution necessary to package your order with the utmost care by using both bubble wrap and packaging peanuts. In the unlikely event of breakage, please contact me within 24 hrs of delivery. For claims purposes, clear photographs of all damages must be uploaded with your message (including the damaged box/packaging that your item was shipped in).

• POSSIBLE MELTING:
I've shipped over 15,500 orders here on Etsy through all seasons with great success. But I can't do this alone. It is the buyer's responsibility to track their package and retrieve it in a timely manner. When temperatures/humidity are high, there's a risk of melting. In the event of damage/melting, please reach out and I will work with you concerning any damage. For claims purposes, clear photographs MUST be attached to your first/original claim.

• JEWELS/GEMS/DIAMONDS:
Many of my clients have used my sugar gems for cake decorating with great success. Unfortunately, a few have not been so lucky. There are many factors that can cause the gems to cloud over such as environment, humidity, and type of icing used. It is the buyer's responsibility to do their own research. A general rule is, the higher the moisture content in the icing/environment, the faster they'll melt/cloud over. I do not replace, issue refunds or shop credit if the gems melt/cloud while in use.
Payment
• I do not charge a cancellation fee and you may cancel an order at any time. However, once I start processing your CUSTOM order, it no longer qualifies for cancellation.

• PLEASE CHECK YOUR ETSY MESSAGES after you place an order. Often times I need more information before I can process your order. For example, your color/flavor combination may not be compatible and a new color or flavor must be chosen. If I do not hear from you within a reasonable amount of time, APFOS reserves the right to make decisions for you or cancel your order.
Shipping
• You will receive an automated e-mail with a tracking # once your order has shipped. IT IS THE BUYER'S RESPONSIBILITY TO TRACK THEIR PACKAGE AND RETRIEVE IT THE DAY OF DELIVERY. (please see refund policy)

DELIVERY GUARANTEE:
• First Class and Priority are generally reliable but not guaranteed. In the event that your order is delayed by the carrier, and does not make it in time for your event, there will be no refunds, shop credit, etc. To avoid an unpleasant situation, please order 3-5 weeks in advance.

• UNDELIVERABLE ADDRESS: It is the buyer's responsibility to provide/confirm the correct shipping address during check out. The shipping cost of a returned package due to an incorrect address is the buyer's responsibility. Please see our NO REFUND policy below.

• INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: Buyer is responsible for any custom or duty fees that may be charged to them upon receipt of their package.
Additional policies and FAQs
• FOOD ALLERGIES:
Please be advised that my candy is produced in a facility that processes the top 8 allergens. However, the equipment is not shared and there is very little possibility of cross-contamination. Due to the Barley being used to make the lollipops, they also contain gluten.

• HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD I ORDER?
Consider placing an order approx. 3-5 weeks in advance. Specify an "event date" or a "receive by" date when checking out. Your order will be placed into my scheduling queue and ship approx. 10-14 days prior to the date you enter.

• LARGE ORDERS AND WHOLESALE:
I do not offer wholesale or bulk discounts. My product is handmade in small batches, hand-poured, and packaged. The same care and attention to detail goes into each and every order, regardless of size.

• I WANT TO ORDER ONLY ONE SET OF LOLLIPOPS BUT WANT DIFFERENT COLORS AND FLAVORS:
Since my products are custom made per order, the minimum is 1 color and 1 flavor per set as listed.

• FREE PRODUCTS IN EXCHANGE FOR A REVIEW:
I do not offer free samples or products for blog reviews. Legitimate bloggers understand that there's a conflict of interest if they're offering reviews for free products. I personally wouldn't trust the integrity of a review when the product was given for free in exchange for the review. An unbiased review is so much more meaningful.

Frequently asked questions
How far in advance should I order?

You may book an order up to 5 weeks in advance by entering an "event date" when checking out. Your order will be placed in my scheduling queue and ship approx. 2 weeks prior to the date you enter. If your event is more than 5 weeks away, please contact me and I'll be happy to create a reserved listing for you. This way, I can enter a 'ship by' date manually.

Care instructions

Simple storing instructions are included with each order. As long as the recommended instructions are followed, the candy should last for months. However, I generally ship approx 10-14 days prior to the date you enter. After all, fresh is always best! :-)

Are your products Allergen free?

The candy is produced in a facility that processes the top 8 allergens. However, equipment is not shared and there is very little possibility of cross-contamination.
