Candy corn might be among the most polarizing candies of the season, but BRACH’S®, which is celebrating its 120th anniversary, has a real treat for the 64% of consumers who say that they enjoy eating the seasonal candy.
They’ve introduced the first-ever BRACH’S Candy Corn Suite, a tri-colored oasis that’s sure to inspire Mellowcreme® candy dreams with its orange, yellow and white decor, candy-corn themed activities and plenty of the fall-themed candy to enjoy.
Bookings for the candy-coated room, which is an exclusive offering at two Great Wolf Lodge locations: Pocono Mountains, Pennsylvania and Gurnee, Illinois, can be made beginning today (Sept. 9) for stays starting the first day of fall (Sept. 22) through Halloween (Oct. 31).
The guest experience includes:
- ALL the candy corn. Guests can enjoy sweet treats from a fully stocked pantry cart with BRACH’S Classic Candy Corn, Mellowcreme® Pumpkins and other fall-worthy snacks.
- Sweet decor. The suite is filled with irresistible elements from iridescent candy corn headboards to an illuminated “Make Moments Sweeter” wall sign and a candy corn themed checkers game.
- Candy Corn Club membership: To keep the candy corn love rolling, each stay in the Candy Corn Suite includes membership to the official BRACH’S Candy Corn Club, giving guests a year-supply of the treat (52 11-ounce bags of BRACH’S Candy Corn) delivered to their home following their visit. Members of the Candy Corn Club will also be among the first to know about BRACH’S-related news and seasonal innovations.
Ferrara, the owner of the BRACH’S brand, will also serve as the exclusive candy partner for the Trick-Or-Treat Trail during Great Wolf Lodge’s annual Howl-O-Ween celebration Sept. 26 to Oct. 31. So families who choose to navigate the trail will have the opportunity to enjoy BRACH’s Candy Corn, NERDS, SweeTARTS, Laffy Taffy and Trolli.
Chad Womack, director of BRACH’S seasonal marketing at Ferrara Candy Company says they know that candy corn is always a hotly debated topic in the fall but this initiative was created for the candy’s superfans.
“I always love to see the creative candy corn memes crop up come this time of year,” he says. “And we’re looking forward to seeing how fans enjoy a real-life candy corn dreamland with the BRACH’S Candy Corn Suite at Great Wolf Lodge. It’s delicious-looking, fun, and oh-so timely for Halloween’s sweetest moments.”
BRACH’S Candy Corn Suite sleeps up to six guests and is available starting at $349 per night (plus taxes and resort fees). It includes unlimited access to Great Wolf Lodge’s expansive indoor water park as well as a collection of family-friendly attractions, immersive entertainment offerings and resort-wide seasonal events and activities. Reservations can be made via phone by calling 800-905-9653 and are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Additional information is available at greatwolf.com.
