Candy Kong is a character from theDonkey Kong franchise and a love interest ofDonkey Kong. She first appeared inDonkey Kong Country. In most of her appearances, Candy hosts minigames for theKongs to play, although she runs her own store inDonkey Kong 64. She has mostly appeared inRare'sDonkey Kong games; aside from them, she has appeared in theDonkey Kong Country television series and other tie-in media based on the games such as comics, as well as the games produced byPaon. In all of her appearances, she has a very humanoid appearance compared to most other Kongs, thoughTiny Kong gained a similar design starting inDiddy Kong Racing DS.

Candy is one of two recurring Kong characters who have not had a playable appearance in released media, the other beingSwanky Kong.

History[edit]

Donkey Kong Country series[edit]

Candy's original design fromDonkey Kong Country

Donkey Kong Country[edit]

InDonkey Kong Country, Candy manages theCandy's Save Point where she allows the player to save their game progress. Her Save Point appears in every world, and she also appears in the ending's Cast of Characters. The instruction booklet calls Candy Kong the "banana of Donkey Kong's eye" and mentions that everyone assumes they will marry one day, although it is Candy's opinion that he is not ready to settle down yet. In the game, Candy frequently advises the Kongs to save their game "before it's too late" (which refers to if they were to lose their progress).

In theGame Boy Color andGame Boy Advance remakes, Candy no longer operates a Save Point, because the game progress can be saved from the world map. In the Game Boy Color version, Candy hostsCandy's Challenge, where the active Kong must complete a challenge for a Banana Coin. Her establishment is changed again in the Game Boy Advance remake toCandy's Dance Studio, where she hosts aDance Dance Revolution-esque minigame in each world.

Donkey Kong Country 2[edit]

Candy is a background character in theGame Boy Advance version ofDonkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest. She isSwanky's assistant atSwanky's Bonus Bonanza, where she simply points out the option thatDiddy andDixie Kong walk to. Candy is later seen inCranky's Hut during the ending "Cast of Characters" with the rest of theKong family. She is wearing a flower in her hair and a dress, which is purple at Swanky's Bonus Bonanza but white during the end credits.

During the development of the originalDonkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest, there were worries that the relationship of Donkey Kong and Candy Kong would clash with the relationship of Diddy Kong and Dixie Kong and detract from the game's character and clarity, so she was replaced byWrinkly Kong, who runs theKong Kollege.[1][2]

Donkey Kong Country 3[edit]

Candy is a background character in theGame Boy Advance version ofDonkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!. She is one of the Kongs to appear in theFunky Kong minigameProtect, where the player characters have to protect her and the other Kongs from being abducted byKremlings.

Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze[edit]

Although Candy Kong does not physically appear inDonkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, her name appears in a mock Time Attack leaderboard on tab 18 of the electronic manual. She is ranked sixth in the leaderboard, aboveLanky Kong andTiny Kong.[3]

Club Nintendo[edit]

Candy Kong made a brief appearance in theClub Nintendo comic "Donkey Kong Country". Like in the game of the same name, she was found at her Save Point, where Donkey and Diddy Kong decided to tell her about their journey. Candy, instead of letting Donkey and Diddy Kong "save" their progress, provides them withSquawks in order to make their journey easier. She is also briefly seen at the end of the comic "Donkey Kong in: Banana Day 24" from the same magazine, celebrating together with the other Kongs.

Donkey Kong Country television series[edit]

Candy Kong in the television series

Candy is a prominent character in theDonkey Kong Country television series, albeit with a drastic redesign, including a different hairstyle and outfit. Her personality is also very different from her portrayal in the games, with a particularly short temper. She appears to be the sole employee atBluster Barrelworks, where she appears to be the quality inspector. Candy andDonkey Kong are also actively dating in the series, much to the annoyance of her boss,Bluster Kong, who is romantically interested in her.

Candy has a robotic clone namedCandy Clone, who was created byKing K. Rool.

Donkey Kong 64[edit]

Candy's appearance inDonkey Kong 64

Candy reappears inDonkey Kong 64, where she runsCandy's Music Shop, which is found in every area exceptJungle Japes,Fungi Forest andHideout Helm. Here, Candy sells the Kongs powerful musical instruments which can defeat foes and cause certain events to occur if used on aMusic Pad. Candy also gives the Kongs an extra watermelon on two occasions, increasing the amount of damage the Kongs can sustain. A picture of Candy Kong also appears behind the hammock inDK's Tree House.

In the ending afterChunky Kong defeats King K. Rool, Candy appears and distracts King K. Rool with her beauty, which is surprising considering that K. Rool is enemies with the Kongs. While she does this,Funky Kong appears from behind and shoots him with a gun loaded with a big shoe, which sends him to whereK. Lumsy is located. She also appears in the two endings where she is seen riding K. Lumsy, alongside all the Kongs, and in the second one she is seen sitting outside of Donkey Kong's house. In the secret ending, she appears three times. The first time she is seen, she gasps and then laughs, and the second time she appears she only laughs. The third time she appears, she is seen posing withTiny Kong and theMermaid, as twoKritters are watching them; the Candy's Music Shop theme plays during this segment.

Super Mario-kun[edit]

Bluster Kong and Candy Kong in Super Mario-kun

Candy Kong appears in one chapter involume 23 of theSuper Mario-kun manga, where she sports her look from theDonkey Kong Country television series.

On December 31, 1999, Candy proposes a challenge to both DK and her boss Bluster Kong: she will go on a date with whoever brings her the "first sunrise of 2000". The two go on top of the snowy mountains to get the sunrise as soon as possible, but having to fight against K. Rool, they miss the sunrise, but find another way to satisfy Candy's conditions: shave themselves so that their shiny heads will replicate the sunrise. Disappointed, Candy states that she just wanted a picture.

DK series[edit]

DK: King of Swing[edit]

Candy is a background character inDK: King of Swing. She is only seen in the opening cutscene, but the game has official artwork of Candy nonetheless. Candy andCranky are the game's only two unplayable Kongs.

DK: Jungle Climber[edit]

Candy is a non-playable character inDK: Jungle Climber. She is shown in the opening cutscene with the other Kongs on their vacation toSun Sun Island. She also hosts theminigames and briefly describes each one before playing.

Donkey Kong: Barrel Blast[edit]

Candy is a non-playable character inDonkey Kong: Barrel Blast. She is the only Kong who is not playable, instead having her own mode,Candy's Challenges, in which she gives Donkey Kong different challenges to complete in order to unlock certain characters. She appears in the cutscene which is shown when the cursor passes over the Candy's Challenges options.

Super Smash Bros. series[edit]

Candy Kong is featured in a few items throughout in theSuper Smash Bros. series. InSuper Smash Bros. Brawl, there is atrophy of Candy that can be randomly obtained in any of the single-player modes. InSuper Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS /Wii U, there is another trophy of her, and it uniquely states that Funky Kong has a crush on her as well as Donkey Kong, something that is not mentioned in any of the other games. InSuper Smash Bros. Ultimate, Candy is an Advanced-class supportspirit, reusing herDK: Jungle Climber artwork. Her spirit battle uses a red palette swap ofBayonetta equipped with aBanana Gun onKongo Falls, with her spirit offering increased stats at critical health. InWorld of Light, the spirit is located in theDK Island sub-world ofThe Light Realm, specifically in the spot that represents Candy's Save Point on theKongo Jungle map inDonkey Kong Country.

Picross NP[edit]

Candy Kong's face with herDonkey Kong Country design appears inPicross NP Vol.8 as one of the figures obtained by completing puzzles. When the puzzle is completed, she winks and kisses at the screen.

Super Mario Odyssey[edit]

A store named "Candy's Cafe" appears inNew Donk City fromSuper Mario Odyssey.

Donkey Kong Bananza[edit]

Candy Kong's portrait in the DK Island & Emerald Rush DLC

Candy Kong is mentioned when the player meetsDiddy Kong andDixie Kong at theRacing Layer inDonkey Kong Bananza. After Diddy and Dixie introduce theRambi Rumble and mention that it has been a while since they saw each other, Dixie says that "Candy Kong is gonna be so jealous that the three of us met up..." She is also mentioned on a billboard reading "Candy Music" inNew Donk City, referencing the fact she owns aninstrument shop inDonkey Kong 64.

In theDK Island & Emerald Rush DLC, the inside ofDK's Tree House features a direct recreation of the portrait fromDonkey Kong 64 that appears in the same location. The portrait now features Candy Kong's signature, and several elements of herDonkey Kong 64 design, namely her facial proportions and the color of her torso, have been altered slightly to bring her more in-line with her most recent design that debuted inDK: King of Swing.

Unused appearances[edit]

Diddy Kong Pilot[edit]

Candy Kong was apparently intended to be a playable character in later builds of the canceled spin-off gameDiddy Kong Pilot. Some time after E3 2001, Candy was in the process of replacing Redneck Kong, and her placement in the sepia backdrop of the character selection menu is where Redneck was originally placed. Candy is also seen in the animated icon for the "Dog Fights" mode on the main menu, where she pilots a pink and white plane with a windshield. Candy also has a Dog Fights icon, although it is never loaded within the game, having yet to be implemented at the time.

General information[edit]

Physical description[edit]

“You call this a body? I eat pretzels fatter than this!”
General Klump, "The Big Switch-a-Roo"
Candy Kong's artwork from DK: King of Swing.
Candy Kong as she appears inDK: King of Swing

Candy Kong has blue eyes with three eyelashes on each, and blonde hair which is just beyond shoulder length. She is one of the two Kongs that use makeup, the other beingTiny Kong, with pink lipstick, purple (blue inDK: King of Swing) eye shadow and pink nail varnish. She has light brown fur and pale skin, similar to most of the other Kongs, although she lacks the exposed belly section. Her physique is fairly similar to Tiny's, being more human-like. Candy is also quite tall, being among the tallest of the Kong family.

Candy wears a pink vest top which is torn off part way to create a crop top. The top has her name on it in a white font with darker pink outlining. She also wears dark pink shorts with a purple belt and a gold ring buckle.

In her original appearance, her clothing consisted of a pink one-piece swimming suit and a pink bow with white dots. Her eye shadow was pink, and her hair was shoulder-length, had a short fringe with curls on the sides, similar toDixie Kong's current hairstyle. She also lacked her pink nail polish in this game, but had an exposed belly section like the other Kongs, as well as a fully exposed neck. This appearance was also used for her cameo in the remake ofDonkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!

In the remake ofDonkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest, her appearance remained mostly the same as the first game, but instead of her usual clothing, she wore a purple floor-length dress and a purple flower on the right side of her hair. She also had her modern purple eyeshadow, but lacked her pink lipstick.

InDonkey Kong 64, Candy had the same physical features as her future appearances, apart from the exposed neck and belly sections, but wore different clothing. She wore a pink crop top with her name written on it in purple writing and pink shorts with a black belt and silver buckle. Candy also wore pink and white trainers in this appearance, as well as a gold necklace. As she ran a music shop in the game, Candy wore a pair of blue headphones with a white "C" on either side, with the blue and gray attachment on the right of her belt.

Candy has an entirely different appearance in the cartoons, which differs more than that of any other Kong. On the show, Candy has ginger fur and slightly paler orange hair tied back with a turquoise headband. She has much smaller eyes and no eye shadow, and also lacks the fur on her upper face but has brown eyebrows instead. Her lipstick is closer to skin tone, and she lacks nail varnish in this appearance. She wears a white crop top and blue denim shorts with a black belt and square gold buckle, as well as a pair of turquoise sandals similar to Tiny Kong's. She also wears gold hoop earrings and a gold bangle on her right arm. This appearance is the one used for her appearance in theSuper Mario-Kun manga.

Personality and traits[edit]

Candy Kong usually has a fairly easy going personality, and often uses affectionate terms to refer to the other Kongs, such as "Honey" and "Sugar", and is also seen blowing kisses in various appearances. Candy is also shown to have a keen interest in music and dance, as she owns a dance studio in theDonkey Kong Country remakes, and a music shop as well as wearing a pair of headphones and a cassette player inDonkey Kong 64. Her profile on the GermanDonkey Kong 64 website further reaffirms this, as well as suggesting that she puts a large amount of effort into her appearance and often trains at the fitness centre. She also is not above using her looks to her advantage, as demonstrated by her deliberately using her flirtatious nature on King K. Rool to distract him long enough for Funky Kong to deliver the coup de grace on theKremling leader in the ending forDonkey Kong 64. Her personality was completely changed for the animated series, however, as in this project she has a much shorter temper and a stubbornness not usually seen in the games.

Relationships[edit]

Candy is shown to be on good terms with most of the Kong family and against the Kremlings. Candy Kong is usually mentioned in various official descriptions to be Donkey Kong's love interest, and often expresses this through the games by using affectionate terms to address him. The instruction booklet that came withDonkey Kong Country, her first appearance, stated that she is presumed to marry Donkey Kong someday and that she is the "banana of Donkey Kong's eye", but she does not think he is ready to settle down yet. InDonkey Kong 64, Candy has a big carpet with the form of a heart with Donkey Kong's face on it as well as a small picture of him, and inDonkey Kong Country,Donkey Kong 64 andDonkey Kong Bananza, Donkey Kong has a picture of her with hearts in his house. She is also shown to be actively dating him in the television series. However, herSuper Smash Bros. Brawl trophy description states that their relationship is a rumor, and Donkey Kong is only stated to have a crush on her in herSuper Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS /Wii U trophy description. InDonkey Kong Bananza, Dixie mentions to DK that Candy is going to be jealous because they met, implying that Candy would have been interested in seeing him again. To explain Candy Kong's absence in later games, one official review ofDonkey Kong Land 2 states that she broke up with Donkey Kong,[4] although theDonkey Kong 64 manual suggests otherwise.[5]

There is also conflicting information about Candy's relation with DK. She is additionally described as a "kissing cousin" on theDonkey Kong Country Game Boy Advance remake page on the Nintendo site.[6] TheDonkey Kong Country section in the ItalianClub Nintendo magazine states that she is Donkey Kong's best friend and, despite the rumors, they have not prepared a wedding yet.[7] InNintendo La Rivista Ufficiale, Donkey Kong and Candy Kong are described as lovers, but she also has ties withSwanky Kong (who is considered DK's brother).[8]

In the television series, Candy's boss Bluster Kong is in love with her, though she does not reciprocate his feelings, and is often quite angry towards him. Bluster is also shown to be very strict on Candy professionally. Funky Kong is also stated to have a crush on Candy in herSuper Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS /Wii U trophy description; in the games, this is limited to hints such as him saying "Say hi to Candy for me!" at Funky's Flights in the first game.

Profiles and statistics[edit]

Donkey Kong Country[edit]

  • Instruction booklet:Candy Kong is the banana of Donkey Kong's eye, and one of his closest friends. Although everyone assumes that they will be married some day, Donkey Kong's just not ready to settle down yet (in Candy's opinion). Candy is also very fond of Diddy, and would pinch his little cheeks at every opportunity, if she had the frames of animation to do it! Donkey and Diddy will meet up with Candy often as they search for their missing bananas. When they do, Candy will give them a chance to save their progress through the game so far. All you have to do to save is jump into Candy's save barrel![9]
  • Player's Guide:Donkey Kong’s “love interest,” Candy Kong, wants to help out and has taken the initiative to set up Save Points at strategic locations throughout the island. If DK and Diddy make a stop to chat with Candy, she’ll offer to save their progress. It’s a good idea to visit Candy whenever you complete a new stage.[10]

Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Color)[edit]

  • Instruction booklet:Candy Kong is the banana of Donkey Kong’s eye. She’ll send DK and Diddy to bonus areas where they’ll have a chance to find extra Multiplayer games.[11]

Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Advance)[edit]

  • Instruction booklet:Candy Kong is the banana of Donkey Kong's eye. She'll send DK and Diddy to her bonus areas where they'll be challenged to dance for extra items and rewards.[12]
  • Player's Guide:Candy Kong likes to dance almost as much as she likes a certain heroic ape. Candy has set up a dance studio in each region. You can access her dancing challenges at any of the studios or by choosing Extra from the main menu. Dance with Candy to win prizes like bananas and cameras. Each region’s dance challenges are tougher than the last region’s.[13]
  • Prima Games guide:Clad in a leotard and waiting for your arrival with a tapping toe, Candy Kong offers you sanctuary in her hut that doubles as a dance studio. Here (in one of the six different places) she allows you to groove with her, and if you're particularly good at keeping time to the beat, you're rewarded with items. Pay her a visit, and practice those twinkle-toed steps![14]

Donkey Kong Jungle Action Special[edit]

Candy Kong is the banana of Donkey Kong’s eye, and one of his closest friends. Although everyone assumes that they will get married some day, Donkey Kong’s just not ready to settle down yet (in Candy’s opinion). Candy is also very fond of Diddy, and tends to pinch his little cheeks at every opportunity. Needless to say this drives the little guy crazy; he wants to be taken seriously. Candy is thrifty and saves everything she thinks might come in useful one day.[15]

Rarewhere: DKC Trilogy Cast List[edit]

APPEARS IN: DKC 1

DK's sweetheart since early apehood and his possible future wife - though Candy takes this undying adoration in her stride, hoping he'll overcome his endless enthusiasm for adventure and general lack of table manners before even attempting to settle down. But she does have a great deal of affection for DK and his whole family, particularly Diddy and even, on occasion, miserable old Cranky, who no doubt has some choice comments to make about her dress sense when she's not around. Candy ran the Save Points in the original DKC before Wrinkly opened the doors of Kong Kollege to the public, leaving her free to return to far more worthwile[sic] pastimes like shopping and all-day sunbathing.[16]

Donkey Kong 64[edit]

  • Instruction booklet bio fromProfessor Cranky Kong:That darn Donkey has all the luck! His girl Candy waits around in her hut, always willing to offer her musical help to that undeserving son of mine and his fancy polygonal friends. Pah![17]
  • Player's Guide:Combining her two chief loves—music and money—Candy offers to sell musical instruments to the Kongs. It’s too bad she doesn’t give them lessons. If they play on the right Music Pads, however, the Kongs can trigger something special, such as the opening of a hidden door. The music scares away groups of enemies, all for the price of just one Headphone. As an added bonus, Candy offers her chums upgrades including extra melons and more Music Energy.[18]
  • Prima Games guide:This alluring ape is Donkey Kong's girlfriend. She's got a musical ear and a shop full of devastating instruments. Tunes from Candy's wares will knock out every Kremling in earshot. Visit her in each level. She, too, offers upgrades as the game goes on. And she'll recharge your instrument's power if you step inside her shop.[19]
  • German website:Everything thatTiny dreams of has come true for Candy. With her long legs, her sweet pouting lips and her silky blond hair, she makes every ape heart beat faster. But she really puts a lot of effort into her beauty. Hours of training sessions in the fitness center are an integral part of her daily schedule. Apart from that she also has considerable musical talent. The Kongs can get various musical instruments from her. After short instruction by Candy they play these with such virtuosity that they literally knock over a Kremling once in a while.
    Played on special boards, the instruments develop an even greater effect. Gates open, complex mechanisms are set in motion, and even the biggest sleepyhead is catapulted from dreamland. A visit with Candy is always worthwhile, because she always recharges the power of the musical instruments absolutely free of charge, and treats her visitors to an extension for the melon strip once in a while, too.

Super Smash Bros. series[edit]

InSuper Smash Bros. Brawl, Candy Kong's trophy claims that her relationship with Donkey Kong is rumored rather than confirmed, contrary to previous statements from Rare. Similarly, her trophy inSuper Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS andSuper Smash Bros. for Wii U implies that Donkey Kong's crush on her is unrequited.

Naming[edit]

Early in the development of the originalDonkey Kong Country game, the names "Blondie Kong" and "Honey Kong" were apparently considered as alternate names for Candy Kong.[20] Candy Kong refers to Donkey Kong as "Honey Kong" in the firstDonkey Kong Country game, perhaps as a reference to her rejected potential name.
