Candy Cane (Peppermint Scented) Lubricant - Limited Edition

The lube is a great thing to buy and even better around Christmas time it could be used as a stocking stuffer for a cuber. This lube overall preformed great and I think it's a good buy.

At first it was oily and fast then it started to stick. I had to put some muscle in, and used that muscle to turn a regular cube faster. I guess it worked

For the most part this is a pretty good lube. The smell does start to fade, which is to be expected, but it would be cool if the candy cane smell lasted a bit longer. The other thing looks like it depends on the cube.I used it on two cubes, the Candy Cane 3x3 (Glow in the Dark) - Limited Edition I got here and a GAN 356 ME Christmas edition. I just went check again, the Candy Cane cube is fine, the GAN leaked lube, again. I used about the same in each, like 6 drops. It seems that every time I let that GAN sit for a bit, I pick it up and there's some lube at the bottom of the case and on the bottom. So would I use it again, yeah. But it depends on the cube.

I like how this lubricant smells so good, but also very fast but controllable at the same time. My only gripe with this is that sometimes it can stain the internals.

Candy Cane lube from SpeedCubeShop is one of those products that manages to be both fun and genuinely useful at the same time. At first glance, it might seem like just a novelty because of the peppermint scent and seasonal theme, but after actually using it, it becomes clear that it’s a well-thought-out lubricant with solid performance.

The first thing you notice is the feel it gives to a cube. It creates a smooth, slightly gummy turning sensation that adds a noticeable level of control without making the cube feel slow or heavy. Instead of making the cube uncontrollably fast, it balances speed and stability in a way that makes turning feel more precise and consistent. This makes it especially useful for cubers who feel like their cube is too fast or a bit unstable.

Another standout feature is the scent. The peppermint smell is quite strong right after applying the lube, which gives it a unique and refreshing feel compared to standard lubricants. Over time, the scent fades into something much lighter, so it doesn’t become overwhelming during long sessions. While the scent isn’t necessary for performance, it adds a surprisingly enjoyable element to the overall experience.

In terms of versatility, Candy Cane works well across different types of cubes. Whether you’re using a 3x3 as your main or experimenting with other puzzles, it adapts nicely and can even be combined with other lubes to fine-tune performance. It’s a good middle-ground option—not extremely fast, not extremely heavy—making it suitable for a wide range of preferences.

One thing to keep in mind is that it’s a limited edition product, so availability can be inconsistent. That makes it a bit more special, but also means you can’t always rely on restocking it whenever you want.

Overall, Candy Cane lube delivers more than just a fun concept. It offers a smooth, controlled, and enjoyable turning feel with a unique twist that sets it apart from typical cube lubricants. It’s a great option for anyone looking to improve their cube’s performance while also adding a bit of personality to their setup.

Candy Cane (Peppermint Scented) Lubricant - Limited Edition

Works great. Has the desired effect on a speedcube. It’s fast but in a pleasant way. I got the 10ml bottle. It’ll last me forever. Highly recommend.

Really impressed with this product. Made my Moyu V11 (8 ball core) very controllable and gummy. Love the minty smell too!

kinda mediciny but i also like smelling gasoline, fire, paint, sharpies, etc so maybe don’t trust me cause everyone i’ve had smell it has liked it. also good lubricant but yk you’re not buying this for how good of a lube it is but the smell

Good for cubes that are too fast. Slows it down while still maintaining its speed and control

The peppermint scent was not taken easy on. Its also a surprisingly good lube too. This is a very good product

Smells great works better

Smells so good! Love this!

I just put this lube in my cube and it works like a charm! It also smells like peppermint so that's cool.

Smells better than it performs, and it performs extremely well! Would recommend 105%

I like it

I bought Candy Cane a year ago and it was the best lubricant I've ever put in a speedcube. I lost it and the Christmas season was over, but even after a year of improvement, this lubricant is still one of the best for me. Buy and stock up on this one if you can, you won't regret it

Stardust + Candy Cane = Perfect balance of speed and control for the GAN13

I love this lube because it is very fast yet it makes the cube smooth and gummy. It is very satisfying. It may not be as fast as some of the other faster lubes but it is better if you loosen the cube a little more. I am very happy.

Gives a really nice amount of speed. Wish the smell would last longer

I used to cube for new PBs but thanks to this lubricant I now primarily cube for the delicious peppermint smell.

I like the smell; exactly like those mint flavor candy you can buy from stores. But it dyed my cube red after using it. not a big issue for me, highly recommend (if you want a minty cube)

Fast , smooth , overall good lube

This is the perfect lube for me, it fits my feel, i like my cubes super fast and smooth, but i think that the smell wasn’t necessary. Still smells good though.

I love all of the special holiday lubes. They are so fun to use with the smell. This lube is nice fast and also have a nice smell. It is also nice that it is also cheaper because of black friday deals.

it is very nice, improved speed

It does what it's supposed to do but it smells like toothpaste

overall nice feeling lube

Smells really nice and makes the cubes pretty fast. Really liked using it.

When i put it in my 11 m duo, it actually slowed down my cube, which made it to perfect speed, and when i put it in my very crappy cube that i got years ago, it turned so well, so i would say its a all purpose lube, it makes fast cubes controllable,and slow cubes fast, and i love that, so i dont have to waste my speed lubes
