But that is the very reason that candy is a poor medium for teaching about Jesus. His story involves His divine birth, His loving teachings, His betrayal, unimaginable pain and suffering, death, resurrection, ascension to paradise, and then the ultimate revelation that He and God are One single entity along with the Holy Spirit.
Candy is just not a complex enough food to convey a temporary sacrifice of One's self-chosen mortal life, where the Self sacrifices Itself to Himself in a temporary death to redeem the tainted souls of untold numbers of yet to be born believers in a faith that had yet to exist.
For that, at the very least, you would need some sort of a multilayered cake with various fillings and frostings, whose favors were each specifically chosen to convey the complexities of God's plan. Some flavors would need to be delicious, some would need to be offensive, and still others would need to cause physical pain. Your suggestion of using hot sauce is unfortunately only a start. A good start mind you, but just a start nonetheless.
