The Candy Coasters by Stephen Mantis Keep Your Sweets Locked Down

— June 17, 2012 — Lifestyle
The Candy Coasters by Stephen Mantis are exactly what they appear to be, a variety of different sugary sweet morsels that have been suspended in a set of resin coasters. These sweet-infused drink coasters will add a little sunshine, cheer and possibly some sugary sweet cravings to your summer gatherings.

This collection, which comes in a set of three coasters, features actual gummy bears, rocket candies and jelly beans; although, these sadly are not made for consumption, but rather as a delightful drink coasters. Brooklyn designer Stephen Mantis created these whimsical candy-infused cocktail holders and table protectors to add sweetness to household products—especially coasters, which more often than not are neglected.

These candy coasters by Stephen Mantis will make a lovely addition to any summer patio set, but be sure to set candy out of the table as there will be cravings.
