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.

Panic has announced in August 2012 that the application would no longer be supported, and offered it as a free download instead. Further commercial development of CandyBar was hindered by changes in the macOS, it was harder to replace icons with every new version and new icons could cause problems with update of several Mac App Store applications. The final release of CandyBar runs on OS X Mountain Lion.[5] The company also had provided a serial number on its website.[1]

Personalize your system and application icons with CandyBar, a tool (similar to Liteicons) which allows you to do so just by dragging and dropping the icons on the program interface.
CandyBar divides icons into three categories: system, applications, and volumes. The system category also contains a number of sub-categories, including: general, folders, devices, dock, or network.
You can store the icon configuration in a container that works like a back-up copy. You can share that container with other users so that they can have the same icons.
