They are easy to tell apart from normal candies as they have a small pink aura around them and a rainbow sweeps across them every few seconds. Many players consider rainbow candies annoying as they can take away a possible match therefore having to make a match elsewhere to get the candies to change back. Other users have complained that the flashing candies cause dizziness and headaches. Sometimes, chameleon candies are found behind marmalade, liquorice locks or sugar chests. They will still change colour every move even when behind any of these blockers.
