Cookie Run: Kingdom is well far into the game where there are an assortment and variety of Cookies released. For that, the META is constantly changing and may result in old Cookies performing underwhelming than the newer Cookies. As such, Cookie Run Kingdom introduced a new mechanic in version 3.2 called Magic Candy, a type of material that increases the damage of Epic Cookies and effectively buffs them more than before.
How to unlock Magic Candy in Cookie Run: Kingdom
Players must unlock the Magic Laboratory to produce the Resonant Ingredients needed to make the respective Magic Candies of a particular Cookie. You can only build the Magic Laboratory once your Kingdom reaches Level 35 and you complete the mission afterward.

All the Resonant Ingredients require the same materials needed to produce: 3x Purity Crystals and 16x Jellybean. It will take approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes to produce one Resonant Ingredient. Afterward, players can finally produce the Magic Candy by clicking on the desired Epic Cookie of choice.
Materials needed for every Magic Candy
As of the Current Version of 4.12, only about 9 Magic Candies have been released for the Epic Cookies. Additionally, only Cookies that are Level 50 or higher can enable the use of Magic Candy, the Cookies enhanced by the Hall of Ancient Heroes cannot have access to the Magic Candy.

How Magic Candy Works in Cookie Run: Kingdom
There are about 30 Levels in a Magic Candy which means the damage multipliers of the chosen Epic Cookie will increase 30 times. The different buffs include more damage. Be sure to remember that the success rate of leveling up the Magic Candy acts just like the Toppings. The higher the Level is, the lower the success rate of upgrading the Magic Candy (As indicated by the green bar rightwards).

Unlike upgrading the Toppings, all the materials that you used such as the Soul Essence, Sugar Crystals, and the Resonant Ingredients will be refunded back. You only lose Coins in the process. Additionally, with every failed attempt to level up the Magic Candy, the success rate increases to 5%.
