People prepare candy cranberries, often called Crandies, during the Bala Cranberry Festival in Bala, Ontario, Canada, on October 17, 2026. The Bala Cranberry Festival is one of Ontario's most iconic and longest-running autumn traditions. The festival transforms the small town of Bala into a massive, vibrant celebration of all things cranberry, drawing tens of thousands of visitors each year during the peak of the fall foliage season. During the festival, visitors can experience locally produced cranberry wines and an array of cranberry-themed culinary delights featuring cranberries as their main ingredient. To make candy cranberries, fresh, tart, whole Bala cranberries are skewered onto wooden sticks and dipped into a hot, glossy candy-coating glaze. The sugar shell hardens into a perfectly smooth, glassy red sphere.
