Candy Icons

Ten 3D app icons crafted from pure CSS and SVG. Each squircle shell uses a four-layer gradient stack — specular streak, diffuse highlight, body gradient, and depth shadow — driven by a single --hue custom property. Inner glyphs float as icy raised elements with their own drop-shadow treatment. No 3D libraries, no canvas — just gradients all the way down.
