It has been some time since I saw candy cigarettes. I remember them having paper wrapped around the candy, and a bit of talc or some other white dust so that you could blow out a few puffs of white ”smoke,” thus convincing old people that you might indeed be smoking. Does anything like this still exist? Did it ever?
Yes, at one time the cigarettes were coated with this smoke-producing material (flour? powdered sugar?). Now, just about the only way you can duplicate this effect in the United States is with the bubble-gum variants from World Candies. And I don’t think there’s really enough of the powder to get a good cloud going. Wait, I’ve got an unopened pack of “Round Up” here. No, I am incorrect. So I guess the answer to your first question is “no".
