Updated . Edited by: Ilyass Ben Hakim.

Where to buy

No Canadian grocery chain was found stocking Ovation. US candy shops and online sellers are the usual route. Stock is patchy, so check before ordering.

Professional insight

Candy importers check flavour, format and freshness date. Ovation sold several flavours in similar boxes.

  • Confirm mint, not orange, Irish cream or cappuccino.
  • Sticks and Break-A-Part balls are different formats.
  • Ask about heat protection on summer cross-border shipping.
  • Bulk boxes may be foodservice packs with plain labels.

Storage

  • Keep sticks cool and away from sunlight.
