Candy

What would Piñatas be without candy? Each species has their own pinata fillers. Piñata love eating candy and every piñata in the game has a distinct candy themed after the animal, so the bee’s candy is bubblegum for example. Other Piñatas want to eat other piñata’s candy as part of the food chain. They break it open and snarf it down. You can also break open a pinata with your shovel. The broken piñata then reforms and leaves your garden because it doesn’t have any candy left. Then there are also the bad piñatas, called sours and they’re full of bad candy...you don't want your piñata to eat that candy. Candy can be obtained from a broken pinata and sold for currency.

There are also four special types of candy: Happy Candy, Joy Candy, Romance Candy, and Sick Candy

Happy Candy

This candy, which can be bought at Costolot's, makes your pinata happy, which causes them to be more willing to do what you tell them to, they also gain a overjoyed bonus it is totally happy and will not pick fights when overjoyed.

Joy Candy

Joy candy can be bought at Ivor Bargain's Store. This candy is worth it if you have the shop open. This candy maximizes the happiness of any pinata that eat it, automatically giving it an overjoyed bonus. It will not eat the Joy candy if it is more than half way sad.

Romance Candy

Romance candy can be bought at Costalot's Store. This candy cause your pinata to be ready to romance without filling in there requirements other than a house to dance in.

But there's a catch...

You can only feed a pinata romance candy if you have bred that breed once before, otherwise they either won't eat it at all, or eat it with no effect. Also eating the candy does not skip the mini-game, so you still have to navigate the maze.

Sick Candy

Sick candy is dropped by the Ruffians and Sour Pinata. This stuff does exactly what it says it does. It makes your pinata sick. You can either pay to get rid of it by "selling" it, or just whack it with your shovel to break it. If your pinata does get sick you better call in the doctor before Dastardos sends your pinata to the wild.
