Diana was at the core of the founding of the business, and developed the candies. In 1982, the business ran into controversy as they had begun to sell adult-themed candies. The North Valley Gospel Church in Albuquerque picketed and protested the candy restaurant, which brought national attention to the restaurant from WGN-TV in Chicago to Playboy.[3] When Diana retired her daughter Debbie continued to run the business. TodayThe Candy Lady is still serving up candy. The New Mexican candy will have red or green New Mexico peppers. They also have fudge, licorice, chocolate dipped fruits, custom cakes, hard candy, rock candy, and truffles. In popular cultureOn The Secret Life Of Southwest Foods the host stopped by the candy shop, and called it an "Albuquerque hotspot". This restaurant was responsible for the creation of the "meth" prop used in Breaking Bad. The candy consists of a blue sugar rock candy; it is now sold at The Candy Lady as meth candy.[4] References1. ^{{cite journal |last=Elton |first=Catherine |date= May–Jun 1996 |title= Deborah Ball - The Candy Lady |journal=New Mexico Woman |location= |publisher= }} 2. ^{{cite web |url=http://thecandylady.com/ |title=The Candy Lady |accessdate=August 16, 2014}} 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://candyladyxxx.com/publicity/morals-left-unscathed/ |title=Morals left unscathed by trip to X-rated candyland |last=Nordstrand |first=Dave |date=1982 |accessdate=July 28, 2014}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=Albuquerque Woman Selling Blue Candy Meth Inspired "Breaking Bad"|website=Buzz60 on YouTube|date=August 22, 2012|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4UqnIaqMuUg|accessdate=August 16, 2014}} External links
