The candy holding device includes a housing having a message display portion, a source of battery power disposed within the housing, a holder disposed within the housing and adapted to hold the stick, a switch disposed within the housing and adjacent to the stick such that a movement of the stick causes an actuation of the switch, and an electronic circuit coupled to the battery and the switch. The circuit is adapted to randomly select in the message display portion one from a plurality of messages in response to the actuation of the switch.
