Candy Away

by deadlystingnyc

Finished crafting candy — now watch your Sim walk across the room to set it on a surface instead of just… keeping it. Candy Away skips that whole detour and puts crafted candy directly into your Sim's inventory the moment it's done.

Why You Need This

The candymaker machine is one of the best additions in Businesses & Hobbies, but the walk-to-surface animation after every single craft gets old fast — especially when you're keeping a shop stocked. This mod cuts straight to the good part.

How It Works

When a Sim finishes crafting at the candymaker machine, the item routes directly into their inventory. The walk and deposit steps are skipped entirely.

All candy types supported:

• Cotton candy
• Lollipops
• Jellybeans
• Single-serving and multi-serving sizes

Requirements

• The Sims 4
• Businesses & Hobbies Expansion Pack

Installation

1. Download deadlystingnyc_candy_collect.zip
2. Drop the unzipped folder into your Mods folder: Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4/Mods/
3. In-game, go to Game Options → Other and make sure Script Mods are enabled

Troubleshooting
