CandyBar is an unsupported OS Xapplication by Panic and The Iconfactory. Although macOS allows users to change icons for user-level files and folders, this is not possible for system files.[2] The application replaces system icons with icons/docks of the user's choice[3] and supports cataloging of icons. New icons and docks were available also from the Iconfactory website.[4] CandyBar is the successor to The Iconfactory's iControl program for Mac OS 8 and Mac OS 9.

The final release of CandyBar runs on OS X Mountain Lion.[5] The company also had provided a serial number on its website.[1]
