- “You're no sucker! Smart players don't rely on luck. They change their fate with Candy! Eat Candy before you hit your Dice Block to trigger one of many effects!”
- —MC Ballyhoo, Mario Party 8
Candies are special items found in Mario Party 8. As Candies replace the Orbs of Mario Party 6 and Mario Party 7, players can collect and eat the Candies found throughout the boards to either help themselves or hinder the progress of their opponents. Upon eating a Candy, the player is granted a specific ability for their current turn. Their physical appearance may also change. A single player can hold up to three Candies, while a two-player team can hold up to five. If a player has too much Candy, they have to discard one of their Candies to make room for the new one.
While free Candies can be earned by passing over Candy Areas, there is no way to determine which Candy a player will receive upon crossing one. However, players can also visit Candy Shops, where they can purchase a Candy of their choice in exchange for coins. Unlike the Orbs and capsules of the three previous installments, Candies cannot be thrown onto Blue Spaces and Red Spaces to create Character Spaces or roadblocks; as such, they instead function like the items from Mario Party, Mario Party 2, Mario Party 3, and Mario Party 4.
Additionally, the grand prize awarded to the winner of Star Battle Arena is a year's supply of Candy.
