If youre still playing Candy Crush Saga, youre supporting a business who believes they are entitled to the word candy with all things related to video games and clothing. Which means - should you use candy in this context - youll have to eventually go to court to defend your right to use such a common word. Yes, the US Trademark office made an incredibly stupid mistake by honoring their trademark request for the word candy to begin with, but ask yourself if you should be supporting a company who feels the best way to compete is to own whatever words of the English vocabulary they consider profitable. They also believe they are entitled to the word Saga and are already sending cease-and-desist notices to game developers. I expect Crush will be next. Lord help us if they ever release a game with an article (A, An, The) in the title.
