Candy demons, as in "Demons made of candy", or "Demons that pop out of the candy cane"?

Clowns still come out of the clowncar, as far as I know.
Clowns made from candy probably are what got nerfed.

Dig deeper. The circus is waiting.

I think curious underground structures (and their masterwork candy weapons) are what's missing.

I don't remember seeing any news suggesting those have been removed, offhand. They've always been pretty rare, though.

No I think they were removed when spires were added.

Quote from: MaskedMiner
Are those slade fortresses with upright sword in them still in game? I can't find them with stock menu, building menu or even lever trick.. So umm, are they still in game or are they just really rarer? Or is every method of finding them fixed?
Quote from: samanato
Are demonic fortresses supposed to exist anymore?

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

They were removed, and their future is still unclear, as far as I know.

Only messed with the circus once. Some "He is weak" clowns were enough to destroy my fortress, are you seriously saying there used to be candy clowns?

Also, don't spoil people like that, OP.

Inorganic materials marked [SPECIAL] are no longer considered valid materials for procedurally generated monsters.

This is possibly because a lot of mods use special inorganics as intermediaries for reactions, may of which have weird properties.  Auto-vaporizing stone for producing syndromes, etc.  So you would get things like 'A towering quadruped made of Bleeding Syndrome' or 'An enormous theropod made of --WEAPON METALS--' or 'A hairy blob made of bug #803'.

In vanilla DF, the only SPECIAL materials are Addy and Slade, and I don't think anyone's complaining about monsters made of those materials being removed.

I wish I had encountered a candy clown while they still existed. Pitting one of them against my candy soldiers would have been a thing to remember on my deathbed.

If you want them that badly, just make a new inorganic which is identical to them but without the SPECIAL or DEEP_SPECIAL tags.

Although I think this might allow them to show up in caravans or carried by invaders as well.
