Carnauba wax (a wax made from the leaves of a palm tree) was hand-crafted by hand using corn syrup, sugar, water, marshmallows, fondant, and carnauba wax. However, modern candy manufacturers often use machines to produce the original ingredients.

These days, many recipes create the candy corn flavors in cakes, cookies, beverages, and other items.
