Do you still have a full roll of Pez in your possession, and now that the devices are not widely available, don't remember how to put them into your Pez machine? Let this article refresh your memory on how to complete this process.

Things You Should Know

  • Lay the Pez dispenser face-up on the table. Pull the head with your thumb and forefinger to slide out the dispenser tray.
  • Insert a piece of Pez candy vertically into the dispenser tray. Continue inserting candies vertically until the tray is completely filled up.
  • Push the dispenser tray back in and stand the Pez dispenser upright.
  • Use your thumb to push the head backwards and dispense a piece of candy. Pull the candy out of the dispenser and let the head retract.

    This should make the dispenser tray slide out. Stop pushing when the tray stops moving and until it will click into place.

    When inserting the candy, Always stick the candy into the dispenser vertically, never horizontally , as the candy dispenser will cause the candy to break upon significant pressure, if done horizontally.

    Stand the dispenser up and bend the head backwards using your thumb (as if bending it's neck forcefully backwards). A tiny bracket will push one Pez candy out so you can grab the edge of the candy. Pull the candy out and let the head retract. Repeat for additional candies.

    There's no "proper" way to eat pez, but yes, you should chew them like you would any other candy/food.
  • Question
    How do I make Pez candies without using the molds I can buy at the store?
    Community Answer
    You can find instructions online using resources like YouTube for Pez candies without molds. Keep in mind though that it will be much more difficult to shape the candy if you don't want to use the molds.
  • Question
    How can I load all the Pez at once?
    Community Answer
    This is not possible. If you could, expect it to take some more effort than putting them in singly.

      Tips

      • Don't allow the pieces to fall over on their sides, after sticking them into the dispenser (a big beginner's mistake)! Doing so, can cause the device to be loaded incorrectly, thereby making the piece break and cause the machine to jam up.
