If you enjoy dining on strange and exotic foods, then you probably already given the Lion, Python & Crocodile Meat a try, and possible even the Canned Mopane Worms; but what about dessert? That’s where the Insectilix Lolly will come in handy.
These insect infused lollipops come in three varieties (scorpion, worm, ants) with three unique flavors, Vodkalix, Tequilalix and Antilix. The first two flavors should be pretty obvious since we’ve seen Vodka with a Scorpion before and what’s a worm without Tequila? The Antilix is new to us, but peppermint and farm-bred ants sounds like a good enough combination.
Insectilix Lolly
- The scorpions used are bred in Chinese scorpion farms specifically for human consumption and are heat-treated to remove any toxins – they are completely safe to eat.
- The worms used are specially bred in the USA for human consumption and are fed on a diet of cereal and fresh greens.
- The ants are specially farm-bred Polyrachis black ants and taste just divine…
- Vodkalix = scorpion
- Tequilalix = worm
- Antilix = Ants. And peppermint
- Alcohol-free and sugar-free
If you’re ready to give the Insectilix Lolly a try, or maybe let an friend enemy try it instead, you can purchase them at Firebox.com for $8 each or about $20 for a 3-pack. They are also available at Amazon.co.uk.

Oh my gosh, I haven’t even dared to try Mopane Worms yet and now there are insect lollipops, it’s really a level up.
This Insectilix lolly is both fascinating and slightly terrifying! The level of detail in the insect-shaped candy molds is genuinely impressive — you can actually see the segmented body parts and antennae. I’m not sure if I could actually bring myself to eat a realistic-looking beetle, but as a novelty gift for the entomologist in my life? Absolutely perfect. The flavor combinations sound surprisingly sophisticated for novelty candy too.
On a slightly different note, I’ve been looking for casual browser games to play during those long product browsing sessions when I’m hunting for weird novelty gifts. Found a fun football arcade game called Head Football that runs straight in the browser with no downloads. It’s got these ridiculous oversized player heads and physics-based gameplay that makes every match unpredictable. Perfect for filling gaps between adding bizarre items to my cart or while waiting for international shipping estimates to calculate. My geek gift exchange crew got pretty competitive with it during our last Secret Santa planning session. Runs fine even on older machines, which is a plus since not all of us have upgraded our browsing setups.
Any word on whether they’re planning an arachnid expansion pack? Spiders would complete the creepy-crawly candy collection.
Adding this to my weird food bucket list — thanks for the find!
