The United States Food and Drug Administration recognized that Sixlets are safe for human consumption during a 1961 study. The ball-shaped candies come in colours that include red, brown, yellow, green, blue and orange. Each colour is purported to add a slightly different taste than the others to the candy. An Easter variation of the candy adds white, pink, and blue pieces while removing red and brown ones from the mix. A Christmas variation has only red, green and white; and the Valentine's Day variation has red, pink, and white. Halloween versions are also sold, having orange, teal, purple, green, and black candies. At some specialty candy stores, Sixlets can be found sold loose by weight in individually sorted colours not found in the typical variety- lime green, black, pink, etc.- in the same way that M&M's are popularizing designer colour selection. They are also packaged for sale as decoration for baked goods.
