Overview |
Kya ha ha! One bite will leave you wanting MORE!
Candy Apple Cookie (Korean: 캔디애플맛 쿠키, kaendi-aepul-mat kuki) is an Epic Cookie released in the Spire of Shadows update (v6.0) alongside
Shadow Milk Cookie. She is of the
Bomber type and her position is prioritized to the
Middle.
Supposedly a creation of the Beast of Deceit himself, Candy Apple Cookie is committed to her master's cause of spreading chaos—both for the fun of it, and to earn his praise. This gleeful imp insists she was born from the first lie ever told, a lie covered in syrup sweet enough to make anyone turn their back on truth. She often schemes alongside her far less giddy cohort
Black Sapphire Cookie.
Candy Apple Cookie's most notable act of deception was her masquerade as Apple Faerie Cookie, in which she feigned innocence to lead
Pure Vanilla Cookie and his friends straight into Shadow Milk Cookie's scheming hands.
Game Description[]
What was the first lie ever told? No one knows for sure, but one Cookie claims to have been born from it—Candy Apple Cookie! Her syrup is so sticky it can seal lips shut and so glossy it leaves everyone staring in awe. Candy Apple Cookie believes she was crafted by the Master of Deceit himself,
Shadow Milk Cookie. From the moment she opened her eyes, her loyalty has been unwavering, dedicating herself to earning his love and trust. Though indifferent to most things, Candy Apple Cookie has a flair for mischief and a passion for dressing up. She delights in tricking other Cookies, giggling with sinister glee as they fall for her schemes, only to dash off in search of Shadow Milk Cookie's approval. Beware—the first bite of the apple of lies is always the sweetest!

Appearance[]
Candy Apple Cookie is a tiny, petite Cookie with washed light dough with pale pink cheeks. She has round scarlet colored eyes with white rhombus shaped pupils and white eyelashes separated from her lids. Her mouth forms a cat-like smile and has a single short fang. She has white hair with a grayish-pink stripe in the middle and on the back of her head are two glossy candy apples, akin to pigtails, with black bows at their base. She has stubby black horns and devil-like wings with a black frame and cherry-colored membrane on her waist.
As for her attire, Candy Apple Cookie wears a Victorian styled black dress with short, puffy transparent sleeves, a short white neck apron, a largely white ruffle rim and a red bow on the back. Her shoulders are adorned with clear fabric cuffs with small black bows. She wears a large black bow tie around her neck. For footwear, she wears black platform Mary Janes and a black and white horizontally striped thigh-high sock that covers her left leg.
Personality[]
Candy Apple Cookie and
Black Sapphire Cookie's dynamic
Candy Apple Cookie's personality is as captivating as her glossy, candy-coated exterior—syrupy sweet on the surface but with a core steeped in deception. She is playful yet cunning, a master of trickery who delights in leading others astray with a honeyed voice and an innocent smile. Every fib she spins is carefully crafted, woven like spun sugar into something irresistible, and she adores watching Cookies fall for her mischief. However, her trickery isn't just for fun—it's an endless performance, each act staged in the hopes of gaining
Shadow Milk Cookie's favor.
Though she rarely shows it, Candy Apple Cookie harbors a deep fear of being unwanted. Her loyalty to Shadow Milk Cookie is absolute—bordering on obsession—and she constantly seeks his validation, yearning for even the smallest gesture of approval.
Age Notes[]
Candy Apple Cookie's age is unconfirmed but most likely to be "in [the] late teens." The following evidence confirms or otherwise supports this fact.
- A now-deleted TikTok post (original link) made by Candy Apple Cookie's English voice actress, Kimoy Lee, states that a Cookie Run: Kingdom staff member confirmed Candy Apple Cookie to be "in her late teens." Lee interprets this to mean that Candy Apple Cookie is 17-19 years old, though it should be noted that the staff member provided no numerical ages for reference, rendering Lee's numerical range approximation as unconfirmed.
Character Inspiration[]
Candy Apple Cookie likely draws inspiration from stories involving tempting apples.
One such example is the forbidden fruit from the biblical story of Adam and Eve, wherein the latter was tricked by a serpent into eating the aforementioned fruit; the forbidden fruit of knowledge is described in most sources as being an apple. This connection is further reflected in Candy Apple Cookie's affiliation with
Shadow Milk Cookie, whose own snake motifs are associated with the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Another potential inspiration comes from the poisoned apple from the story of "Snow White," a deceptively-delicious offering that instead leads to state of deathly sleep. A third inspiration may lie in the Apple of Discord from Greek mythology, befitting Candy Apple Cookie's claim that she was created by Shadow Milk Cookie and directly reflecting her involvement in turning
GingerBrave and his friends against
Pure Vanilla Cookie during the Spire of Shadows Story.
Candy apples are apples covered in sugar candy, offered served in fall festivals. Candy Apple Cookie reflects their deceptive nature, taking on the shape of a healthy ingredient while surrounding herself with overly-sweet deceitfulness.
Trivia[]
- According to her loading screen trivia, "Candy Apple Cookie was born from the first ever lie. True or false?" Another loading screen present during the Beacon of Truth update (v6.1) states, "Whenever
Shadow Milk Cookie is absent for a long time,
Black Sapphire Cookie plays tricks to annoy Candy Apple Cookie!" - In the Spire of Shadows update (v6.0), the Game of Cards Event uses Candy Apple Cookie to represent the Ace of Hearts.
- Candy Apple Cookie's tarot card sprite is The High Priestess, the second card of the Major Arcana, as it shows her in between two pillars, one black and the other white, just like the card.
- Candy Apple Cookie's gacha background is nearly identical to that of Black Sapphire Cookie. The only differences between the two are the colors of the checkered banners and textured atmosphere of each.
- Candy Apple Cookie is the fourth Cookie originating from Cookie Run: Kingdom to become playable in Cookie Run: Witch's Castle alongside
Black Sapphire Cookie, following
Stardust Cookie. - Candy Apple Cookie's Taiwanese voice actress, Lin Peiling, also provides the voices of
Pancake Cookie,
