Image Candy is a browser-based image editing toolkit covering conversion, compression, resizing, background removal, and watermarking. Icecream Apps, the team behind PDF Candy (launched 2016) and Video Candy (launched 2021), released the Image Candy sites in 2022 as the image-focused member of its 'Candy' suite of free web tools.
Rather than one monolithic editor, Image Candy splits its functionality into single-purpose tools, a resize page, a background remover, a HEIC-to-JPG converter, a meme generator, so a user lands directly on the tool they need instead of navigating a full editing suite. Processing happens through the browser with no account required for the free tools, following the same no-install approach Icecream Apps uses across its PDF and video products.
Image Candy suits people who need occasional image edits, resizing for a marketplace listing, compressing a file for email, without justifying a subscription to a full design app like Photoshop. The core toolkit is free to use; a Lifetime plan at $79 as a one-time payment removes limitations for users who rely on the tools on a recurring basis, alongside monthly and yearly subscription options.
