Oh. Thanks. I don't normally use that vernacular and considered it a lollipop, so I got confused and was wondering if it had anything to do with Inception's pinwheel to whatever due to the similar style.

I'd call that style of big spiraled candy a lollipop too. I only call the smaller candies on a stick that fit in you mouth a sucker. But I got what they were going for.

Indeed, i went with it because the only useable images I was finding for ‘sucker’ were enough on the phallic side to be annoying.
