** Sometimes Hasbro removes entire ''places'' from the board.
* [[Crap Saccharine World]]: Candy Land apparently lost some of its beauty and happiness following the King's disappearance. You probably can't tell by looking at all the bright colors and smiling denizens on the board.

* [[Five-Token Band]]: Updates made during the 2000s gave the Caucasian Candy Land Kids some African-American and Asian-American friends.
* [[Gingerbread House]]: The last space in the versions released before the 1980s. ''World of Sweets'' has it as one of the locales located along the path.
* [[The High Queen]]: Queen Frostine...before the [[
* [[House Rules]]: To keep your sanity as an adult playing with kids, these are often used: Draw a hand of three to five cards (instead of just a single card), choose which color to play ([[Screw Destiny|instead of accept fate]]), play multiple cards at a time if they're all the same color and use special cards to send your opponents backward .
* [[Hot Consort]]: Queen Frostine, originally.
* [[Level Ate]]
* [[Luck-Based Mission]]: Probably to assure the young ones aren't disadvantaged: The game's outcome is determined by the luck of the draw and nothing else. This game is not for the strategic crowd, folks!

* [[Winter Royal Lady]]: Queen Frostine again. Even as a princess, she retains this aspect.
* [[A Worldwide Punomenon]]: Some of the names of the lands.

* Cory from ''[[Boy Meets World]]'' laments in one episode that he spent his Saturday night playing Candy Land with his sister, "and lost", [[Did Not Do the Research|as if losing a game of pure chance is more pathetic than winning it]].
* ''[[Nurse Jackie]]'' has the main character playing the game with little girls and a boy in "Heading North".
* Played by Larry and Alfred in the ''[[Veggie Tales]]'' episode "Larry-Boy and the Fib From Outer Space".
* [[That '70s Show]] has Eric Forman stashing away money in a Candy Land box. It is later revealed that the gang hides a [[Marijuana Is LSD|different kind of stash]] in the same box.
* The ''[[Wreck-It Ralph]]'' film franchise features a video game called ''Sugar Rush'' that is best described as "''[[Mario Kart]]''ing through ''Candy Land''".
