Candy can make anything you could possibly imagine out of balloons. She is extremely talented, really goes above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect. She has great prices, and works very hard at every project she takes on. On top of that, she is wonderful at kids' parties, her magic tricks really have the kids screaming and giggling with delight. Overall, I have always had an excellent experience when hiring her to make balloon animals and entertain for camp events. My favourite thing she did was making ballon fish with magnets inside and a matching fishing pole (made from balloons of course!) also equipped with a magnet, so the kids could fish for the balloon fish. It was absolutely adorable and genius! 10/10!, definitely recommend for all your balloon needs! More...

Candy and Mr Candy were absolutely amazing in their balloon making skills. I had just finished working with them for my daughter's 1 year old birthday party celebration today. She created a very creative Under the Sea balloon arch with octopuses, Mermaid, and other ocean. creatures. She also made 5 centerpieces with fish and other intricate designs. Best of all, Candy designed all these cool balloons for my 18+ children guests who thought that was highlight of the party. Definitely highly recommend and would want to work with her again! Thanks for making this birthday so much fun! More...

Candy and Mr Candy were the stars of my daughter's 1 year old birthday party - her balloon making skills are absolutely amazing! All the children, ages ranging 2-9 yrs old were so impressed....in fact, the adults even requested balloons. Â Candy was a pleasure to work with - easygoing and sweet. She also designed a huge balloon arch (Under the Sea theme with mermaid) and centerpieces with fish, octopuses, and other cool creatures. Â I am so impressed by her balloon making skills - she quickly made Minnie Mouse, Mermaid, bow/arrow, paw patrol dog, Spiderman, etc. Â Also, her magic show was cute. Â Definitely will recommend her to anyone looking for a friendly, warm and talented balloon maker. Â Thanks again! More...

Kids and adults loved her creations! We didn't expect the adults to ask for balloons but Candy was accommodating to them and even other children who were going back for more while still making sure each child had a balloon creation to take home. We had several guests (who have gone to many children's parties) comment that she's the best balloon artist they've seen. Next party we'll be sure to book her for longer :) More...

Candy was amazing in every sense of the word!!! She performed at my daughter's 4th birthday party and was very professional and entertaining. She engaged the kids ages 2-10 years old very well and I also found her performance amusing and entertaining. Candy's demeanor is very pleasant and bubbly which is great for kids. During the balloon twisting, she incorporated elements of humor which was a great way to create excitement and laughter. The magic show was equally entertaining and humorous. She made a beautiful Elsa balloon for my daughter and several other cool balloons for the other kids. I was truly happy with Candy's performance! She was definitely a great choice and experience.

Can't say enough about how wonderful Candy is! She worked our booth at a conference and people were lined up for her awesome creations. She even took her own time to come prepared with balloons already made based on requests people made the previous day. Thanks Candy! Looking forward to seeing you again next year at Quirk's! More...

We hired Candy Twisted Balloons for our son's birthday party. The theme was Harry Potter with a Taekwondo twist and Candy was amazing. She and her colleague came in very appropriate attire, performed a magic show that had the kids (24 of them ages 3-8) cracking up and her balloons were amazing. Her balloons were not the regular swords and flowers. She came in with a HUGE 3' Harry Potter on a broomstick holding a golden snitch and it was all made out of balloons with immaculate details. She even created balloon owls and she created characters and animals for the guests. In addition to her artistry, Candy was very refreshing because she has a lovely personality and was able to engage with everyone who talked with her. She was great and I highly recommend her! More...

Candy had a booth at the Yelp Holiday Hangover 2016 party. Disclaimer: I actually didn't pay for their servicesPros:- The line for the balloon animals was outrageously long (I waited 50 min, yups) but it was definitely worth it since Candy was extremely creative in creating the balloon animals - I saw people with unicorns, Snoopy, monkeys, lady bugs, ninjas, etc. ..- She stayed at least 20 min after the event has ended to get a couple of more people in (me included!) and she didn't get paid for it! So I tipped because she was super nice!- Great work ethic - I don't think she stopped making balloon animals for 3+ hours straight!Cons: - Don't know the pricing More...

We hired Candy for my son's first bday where there were kids with ages ranging from one to ten. She easily exceeded my expectations. The creations she made were amazing. My adult guests were all raving about it. I thought I was hiring someone to make balloon animals. She could make those but also made minion characters, Disney characters, and many other really detailed creations. For my son, whose theme was monkeys, she made a balloon monkey hanging from a tree. It was really elaborate and cool.All the kids were happy and it was impressive how many high quality creations she was able to create in an hour. I highly recommend her. She is good with children, professional and reasonably priced. More...

Candy was greatI hired her for my daughters 3rd birthday party. My daughter had a princess themed party and she came dressed up for the occasion. She came 10 minutes early to set up and did a great show. I hired her for face painting, balloons and a magic show.Face painting: I thought she did a really great job. I think al the kids were really happy with the designs she painted on their face.Balloon art: This is I think the reason you hire Candy. Every one at the party was impressed with her creations, often stating that these are not your every day balloons. She did a great job staying on theme and made a bunch of elaborate princess balloons from Little Mermaid, Frozen to Cinderella, very impressive and a great give away.Magic: This was just ok, basic, BUT I think the kids were entertained and not the main reason you hire Candy. All in all we were very happy with her services and would highly recommend her. More...

We were fortunate enough to be able to hire Candy for my son's 4th birthday at his preschool. Candy arrived early and set up quickly and was on her way to entertaining the children before we knew it. My son loves Thomas the train and she made a balloon just for him in the shape of Thomas. All the children were amazed and delighted at the different balloons she was able to create. Even more impressive than the balloons was Candy's charm. She was so fun and easygoing with the kids. Her smile was contagious. Candy finished up with a magic show with a special bunny friend. There was great flow between the balloon making, dancing, parachute play, and the magic. Besides being a wonderful entertainer that captured a classroom full of four year old children's undivided attention, being parents we appreciated her "mini lessons" on stranger safety, balloon safety, and animal safety. Even with so many kids around her she was able to navigate the birthday boy in perfect position for our photo-ops. We have so many wonderful videos and photos to remember his birthday! I don't know many adults that can keep a genuine smile continuously when they're with that many kids, but Candy did it effortlessly which can only mean she really loves what she does! We would definitely recommend to anyone looking for birthday/ party entertainment! More...

My family used Candy Twisted Balloons for my nephew's 1st birthday party. Â All I can say is AMAZING! She is not a typical balloon twister. Â Her work is art! She made centerpieces that were insane! They were not ordinary...very unique. She was extremely professional and kept the crowd entertained from young to old. Â She made me a headband with balloons to wear, my mother in law a wristlet corsage and even the older guests she made characters they requested...example: Rambo, Al Pacino, etc. Â I would highly recommend her for any event....if you are considering an event for an adult themed party besides a children party...definately use her also! 5 stars is not enough! She deserves 6!!!! More...

We hired Candy for my niece's 7th birthday party. Let's say she kept the kids occupied, usually at these parties kids are reckless (being kids), but Candy and Mr. Candy kept them sane. You can name any ballon and she will get it done for you. I saw Elmo, Incredible Hulk, the blue ranger (power rangers) and even a basketball hoop. WOW! I will hire for many more events. Not only was Candy talented, but she was great with the kids. She was patient, knew how to make every single balloon they named, and was fast. We had her for two hours, but I should have requested three hours, the kids and parents were sad to see her go. Don't miss out, and have her at your next party! More...
