Look, we all could probably use a sex doll every now and then. And yes, this includes happily married couples who are completely happy with their sex lives.
Dolls just add that extra spritz to the bedroom. The sort of excitement level that is pretty hard to achieve for even the most seasoned sex toy collectors and kinksters.
For solo users, a sex doll can bring an immaculate self-pleasure experience while also adding a form of companionship or even love to the mix.
For couples, a sex doll can elevate the bedroom game completely by adding a new body to the mix. All without the hassles of bringing another living and breathing soul to the sacred space of the couple.
In a nuthsell – sex dolls are pretty damn awesome.
And, I am glad to say that I will be reviewing one of my newer favorites today. The one and only Candice 2.0 from Tantaly. An upgraded version of the previous Candice doll from the same company.
I am quite excited for this one so let’s just dive right in.
In this Candice 2.0 review, you will discover:
• First Impressions of Candice 2.0 – How Does She Look & Feel?
• So, How’s the Sex? – Vaginal/Anal Experience of Candice 2.0
• The Pros & Cons of Candice 2.0 Sex Doll Torso

What is Tantaly?
In very simple terms, Tantaly is an American company that specializes in creating high-end sex dolls.
The idea for Tantaly came from a lovely man called Steven. A man who was into various sex toys and self-exploration.
Sex dolls in particular were of interest to Steven, but as his collection grew bigger, the man found himself frustrated by how expensive this hobby could get.
And then there was the question of where on earth to store the dolls.
From that problem, an idea arose – why not create high-end sex dolls that offer the ultra-realistic experience we know from high-end sex dolls, but at a fraction of the cost and without the dolls taking up crazy amounts of storage space?
The idea eventually became a reality and the world is now blessed with Tantaly, a brand creating the most premium sex doll torsos in the world.
Sure, the idea was risky at first – sex dolls in general are a bit of a touchy subject full of taboos. How on earth will people accept buying dolls without limbs?
Well, it turns out that if you do it right then people will love the product.
You see, Tantaly is not just a sex doll torso. We will talk about the details later, but let me just tell you this – the holes on Tantaly dolls can compete with the best male masturbators out there…and the bodies on these dolls…heaven.
The bottom line is this – there is a lot of care being put into creating this stuff and the results are prime. No wonder that Tantaly pretty much unanimously dominates the sex doll torso market as of right now.
Candice 2.0, the Tantaly sex doll torso we are reviewing today also happens to be one of their most lifelike models to date. An upgrade on one of the hall-of-fame Tantaly sex doll torsos, Candice.
Sounds exciting? Well, let’s get things kicking then and unwrap the beauty.
What’s in the Box?
Many of you are probably new to this and are a little hesitant about getting a sex doll torso due to…erm, practical reasons. You do not want to walk or drive around carrying a big box that screams “sex doll inside!”.
If this is you, don’t worry. All Tantaly shipments come in super plain boxes that have no references to what’s stored inside. The box may as well have electronics or home appliances inside it. No one will be able to tell!
Now, what do you actually get with your Tantaly Candice order? Let’s unwrap
If you order Candice 2.0 without any extras then the beautiful torso is all you get. We will explore this body in detail later on in this Tantaly Candice 2.0 review, but the first impressions are great here. Wrapped, tight, beautiful. Can’t wait to touch it!
In the following, let’s look at all the little extra accessories that are available to add to the Candice 2.0 order.
- Tantaly USB heating rod – At about $20, this is an item that I would recommend adding to your order. It is a simple, waterproof stick that uses USB to charge and comes very handy if you prefer the holes of your dolls to be warm and inviting. Give it about five minutes or a bit more and the beautiful vagina and anus of Candice 2.0 are ready for you.
- Tantaly water-based lube – This one is not necessarily mandatory as I suspect most of our readers already have a lube of their preference in their homes. It is a water-based lube and such types of lubes are the best options for Tantaly dolls and sex dolls in general. With a water-based product, you will not risk damaging the long-term health of your doll.
- Tantaly sex doll care kit – A drying stick, a washer, and a small storage bag are what you get here. This is the one item that is pretty much mandatory if you want to ensure the long-term health of your sex doll. The washer is a douche-type portable item that you use to rinse the orifices of your doll. The drying stick is for absorbing the water and all other “goodies” you leave inside your doll after you are done. Lastly, the storage bag is for keeping your doll wrapped in a bag that keeps your doll in an optimal state. Away from air moisture, dust, and everything else that can start to degrade your toy over time.
- Tantaly renewal powder – Again, an investment for the long-term health of Candice 2.0. While it is not a necessity to start using the powder immediately, I would still recommend getting this item. An occasional coat of powder helps to keep the body tight and bouncy while also helping to keep the silky skin of the Candice 2.0 fresh and smooth to the touch.
While the list of extras may seem long at first glance, these items are not all that expensive. Yet, they do a great job of keeping Candice 2.0 stay in shape.
In the following, let’s get handy and look at how it feels to touch Candice 2.0.
First Impressions of Candice 2.0 – How Does She Look & Feel?
Now, I have already glimpsed this beautiful body while it was wrapped up in the box. Obviously, I was quite excited to get it out of the box.
Since Candice 2.0 is generally considered to be the most realistic Tantaly I expected quite a heavy doll. I was not wrong!
At about 43 lbs/ 19kg, Candice 2.0 felt bulky and heavy immediately coming out of the box. Handling her is possible and you do not have to be a gym rat to be able to go for various positions with her, but yeah…she is realistic in the weight aspect. Also – carrying her, I was pretty much immediately impressed by these proportions and body.
The breasts on her are pretty much a personal ideal for me. Big, but nothing ridiculous. Just a beautiful, full, and firm pair.
Also, that bounce is to die for. The breasts on Candice 2.0 feature a 30% softness increase from the first Candice. You even get a very slight sag going on, which further adds to the realism aspect of the experience.
Honestly, I have touched a fair share of breasts during my lifetime, but Candice 2.0 would fool me. Put a blindfold on me and let me touch the TPE skin of Candice 2.0 – I would not realize I am dealing with a sex doll torso instead of a real woman. Everything from the areola area to how the nipples feel under the finger has been handled very well here.
The ass of Candice 2.0 is a marvel too. Again, it is big and firm while still having that bounce and softness we associate with TPE. The shape reminds me of someone athletic. A gym girl who knows exactly what she is going for when planning her training.
A masterpiece of an ass – and yeah, the upgrade from Candice 1.0 can be felt.
This time, we have a 50% increase in softness. The Candice 2.0 features the Tantabutt technology – a trademark of Tantaly where the focus is on delivering the most realistic butt experience in the sex doll industry.
In short – Tantabutt technology means that getting it on with this doll will have that gorgeous butt rippling, bouncing, and shaking like you wouldn’t believe. The official site of Tantaly features some examples of the shake of the Tantabutt. Feel free to head over there to see what I described in action.
What I can tell you is this – the ripples, the elasticity, and the bounce look even better in real life.
Now, I suppose that most of you fine folks want to get Candice 2.0 to have sex with her.
As such, take special note of the next part, where we will, quite literally, dive into Candice 2.0 and see how these beautiful anal and vaginal orifices look and feel.
So, How’s the Sex? – Vaginal/Anal Experience of Candice 2.0
Let’s start with her vagina.
The Vagina Experience of Candice 2.0
For those completely new to Tantaly sex doll torsos, be prepared to be taken aback by the small details. The labia is light-pink, soft, and beautiful to look at. Again, I suggest letting your fingers slowly glide over the entire vulva area to get a full feel of all these beautiful details.
If you happen to be a virgin then the experience can even be slightly educational. I mean, this is pretty much a perfect rendition of the female vulva at least when it comes to looks.
How about the insides? Well, this is where it gets even more interesting. Yes, having vaginal sex with Candice 2.0 is a realistic experience, but let’s call it a slightly elevated realistic experience. These textures can really do a number on you!
The entrance is tight and slightly spiraling. The sensation hits the head of the penis pretty much immediately. Managed to put a nice, beaming smile on my face. Can’t wait to push further.
The longest, middle part of the vagina of Candice 2.0 is surrounded by loads of soft bumps. These hit your penis from all sides and wrap it up in a super pleasant, wave-like sensation as you thrust. Good stuff. The type of stuff that can make you blow your load fast, very fast.
Just like with most of my favorite male masturbator textures, the vagina of Candice 2.0 ends with a sort of a grande finale. The final part of Candice 2.0 vagina features nubs that are designed for a penis massage. The entire head of the penis feels as if wrapped in a hyper-stimulating, warm blanket.
Want a pro tip? Experiment with depth variations. The orgasm can feel completely different depending on which part of the Candice 2.0 vagina you end up finishing in. Gives some pretty nice variety to the sexual experience.
In that sense, the vagina texture of Candice 2.0 even reminds me of the texture of the Kumzumi, one of my favorite Fleshlights.
Oh, and does the intense stimulation offered by Candice 2.0 mean that it can be used for endurance training as well? Sure bet. In fact, sex dolls in general are great for sexual stamina training.
The Anal Experience
For lots of people, the anal experience of Candice 2.0 could be even more interesting than the vaginal action. Simply due to the fact that anal sex is not all that accessible to many of us.
As you can guess, this is a tight experience. The entrance and the first part of the anal orifice of Candice 2.0 give you a suction-type of feeling. Almost on the edge of being uncomfortable. You get that thrill of doing something forbidden and “out there”.
We are off to a good start!
Next, things get a bit lighter. The second chamber features a unique set of layer-like patterns that deliver the goods to the entire length of the penis. The tightness is still there, but there is a massage-like sensation added to the mix. You get a direct, intense type of stimulation that still manages to feel relaxing and soft.
The final part of the anal orifice of Candice 2.0 is my favorite. Here, we have a comb texture on one side and a bundle of massage beads on the other. This combination along with the slight suction and everything else going on inside the tunnels is…for a lack of better word, heaven.
Now, this may not sound like something you should do with an anal texture, but hear me out – hitting Candice 2.0 anally from behind at fast speeds is my favorite way of enjoying this one.
And, while I have not personally experienced the infamous Death Grip syndrome, I feel that the anal experience of Candice 2.0 could combat it quite well. It is just very, very intense in all the best ways.
So, now that I hopefully gave you an idea of how this doll can feel, let’s look at a quick list of the positives and negatives of the Candice 2.0 torso doll.
The Pros & Cons of Candice 2.0 Sex Doll Torso
Since the internet loves a neatly put-together list of advantages and disadvantages, I will do one here too. As per usual, let’s start with the positives:
The Pros of Candice 2.0
The Tantabosom Breasts
Not a big fan of this technology being named Tantabosom. I mean, sound a bit ridiculous, don’t you agree?
Who cares about the name though – this is an awesome pair of breasts. Big and bouncy. Firm yet with a beautiful bounce and sag. And yeah, they are very, very realistic in how they look and feel.
The Tantabutt
Same story as with the breasts, but even more bouncy. They really went full-on with creating a butt that is perfect for hitting it behind. Doggystyle lovers unite! Seriously though – love this body type. Athletic and firm while somehow still being extremely soft and bouncy. I also like that they did not go for a full BBW vibe with this one.
Lots of sex doll companies these days go a bit extreme when designing the proportions of their dolls. Everything is just so in-your-face and exaggerated. This is not an issue with Candice 2.0.
The affordability
Candice 2.0 is not a cheap sex doll by any means, but keep in mind that most high-end sex dolls can cost more than $1500. And, Candice feels just as good as these elite-level dolls. Sure, you will not have the full limbs and a head…but the overall experience is just as good and immersive.
The tunnels
I would readily get the vagina and anal tunnels of Candice 2.0 as stand-alone male masturbators if it would be possible. Says it all, really.
Love that Tantaly focuses on the holes just as much as they focus on how the bodies of the dolls look.
Quick cleaning process
Look, cleaning a sex toy is never the best part of the process. This is just how it is. Luckily, cleaning Tantaly dolls is relatively hassle-free. Provided that you use the right products for cleaning. Here, I would recommend using the official Tantaly stuff that I already described in this review.
The durability
Keep your doll in great shape by cleaning it consistently and storing it well. This will ensure that Candice will be a companion for years to come.
The community aspect
To my surprise, Tantaly has managed to grow a sizable online community. For an idea of what I am talking about, just head over to the r/tantaly subreddit to see what I am talking about.
The communal aspect makes engaging with this hobby so much more fun. Also, the community can often serve as an inspiration for how to dress the dolls. In a nutshell – useful and fun.
The Disadvantages of Candice 2.0
The lack of limbs and face
Is this even a disadvantage? Not sure. The lack of limbs makes the storage aspect that much simpler. However, there are loads of folks out there who want their dolls to have faces. For some, the lack of face and limbs can hurt the immersion aspect of a sex doll a bit.
Where to Find the Best Price for Candice 2.0 & Is She Worth It?
You can find the current best price for Candice 2.0 at the official site of Tantaly.
Tantaly also offers various sales on their site quite often so I suggest keeping an eye on the site. In addition, the site is full of beautiful photos of various Tantaly dolls and even some cool blog posts to really keep those fantasies flowing.
Lastly, allow me to give a quick shout-out to the customer service people of Tantaly. The responses are quick and kind and all possible technical issues get handled well.
Bottom line is this – don’t be afraid to contact the Tantaly team. These people are cool, professional, and passionate about their business and the sex doll community in general.
Is Candice 2.0 ultimately worth it? If you have the spare cash and are interested in sex dolls then yes. The Tantaly torsos offer a very nice, affordable entry to this world. And, as I have already emphasized, the quality is absolutely there!
That said, it is still a considerable investment. Unless you are bathing in cash, buying a sex doll should never be a spontaneous, horny purchase. Too many folks out there who spend hundreds on their sex doll orders and immediately regretting it after a quick jerk-off. Avoid this if at all possible and only get Candice 2.0 if you see her genuinely bringing long-term value to your life.
Hopefully, I managed to cover all the bases here. It’s been a while since I reviewed a sex doll and it was a very fun ride.
Not quite as fun as actually having sex with this doll though.
Good night, folks!
