Today's Strands puzzle is all about satisfying your sweet tooth, with a hint of Halloween treats. If you're stuck, remember that finding any words can help unlock in-game hints. The key is to locate hidden words that align with the theme. For instance, words like STRAND, REDS, and RUST can lead you to the theme words.
The answers to today's puzzle are a delightful mix, including DOTS, NERDS, and WHATCHAMACALLIT. The real challenge, though, is finding the spangram - a theme word that spans the entire puzzle. Today's spangram is CANDYAISLE, and you'll need to start from the C on the bottom row to uncover it.

For instance, the Jan. 21 puzzle featuring the word PHAT was a real head-scratcher. And let's not forget the sea creature-themed puzzles from Jan. 15 and Jan. 9, where words like BALEEN, RIGHT, BIGEYE, and SKIPJACK had us stumped.
