TikTok candy melting trend sends Pennsylvania boy to hospital

When a 9-year-old Fayette County boy attempted to follow a TikTok trend, creating what is known as a Jolly Rancher Grape, he tripped while carrying a bowl of molten candy liquid and suffered severe burns.“He tripped, and that’s when the boiling hot candy coated his whole hand and his four fingers except his thumb,” his mother, Christina Blackstone, said of her son, Caidan.
