What will the giant cave spiders become?
Lilac gossamer princesses, silly!
Elephant fairies are also on the to do list. They wear pink tutus and trample dwarves to death.

everything is still going to bleed right?
Most creatures will still bleed. Magenta blood will be quite common.
What I'm having trouble with thus far is finding a good variety of candies, and trying to establish rules by which I assign them properties (e.g. [AQUIFER]) and layers. I've settled for the principle that every candy capable of soaking up water is an aquifer, and those made with syrup are flux.
But I still haven't decided what gets used as metal or fuel. I'm trying to avoid incorporating sweets that aren't particularly popular in western countries, and have used other types of dessert, such as cheese, sparingly. I'll test whether I can use non-mineral objects (such as gossamer cloth) as fuel.
Here's the current list of minerals, soil types and stones:
Sedimentary: halva, gingerbread, cake, marzipan
Igneous extrusive: toffee, waffle, nougat
Igneous intrusive: caramel, marshmellow, kalakand
Metamorphic: bubblegum, jelly, fudge
Sand: gobstoppers, jelly beans, glitterdust
Earth: Baclava, brie (moldy cheese), emmentaler (swiss cheese), custard
Gems: praline, rock candy, muffins, strawberry jam, prune jam, molasses, gumdrops
Metals: Chocolate? Milk Chocolate?
Fuel: Butter? Faerie crystal?
