"Candy" is a joke name for adamantine since it's light blue and comes in strands like cotton candy. "Candyland" and "the Circus" are joke names for what you find if you dig up too much adamantine, since you get cotton candy at the circus.

I get that OP is confused, since DF newcomers tend to have trouble with slang, but I have no clue why some of the members of this community have such vitriol for a simple joke, especially since we're pretty amiable otherwise (except to our dwarves, of course).

It's also has a weight somewhat reminiscent of the material.
