Custom Candy: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $1.95 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.52 at volume, on a typical 45-day lead time. These medians come from published supplier pricing. Treat them as a starting point for a sourcing conversation rather than a binding quote.

What moves the price
For custom candy, the drivers are heat level, bottle size, sauce style, label type, cap type, candy type, flavor, shape — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Published wholesale candy/chocolate listings show broad unit economics ranging from about $0.35–$0.90 per ounce for bulk packaged confectionery at retail-wholesale style suppliers, while dedicated wholesale chocolate sellers commonly list 5 lb bags around $48.75–$60.50 and specialty chocolate items around $40–$215 depending on format and pack size. For a mid-range custom-printed baby/kids chocolate candy, the realistic routes are private-label confectionery manufacturers, US-facing wholesale distributors, or import/landed-equivalent sourcing; price is moved most by cocoa content, fill/coating complexity, allergen-free and organic requirements, and packaging/print setup rather than the candy base alone. Lead times are typically several weeks because custom confectionery often requires formulation, production, cooling, packing, and freight coordination, especially when imported or custom printed.
