I've Never Seen the Children's Movie, Candyland

I've never seen the children's movie, Candyland. But, 'Gramma Nut' has to be one of the funniest character names ever.  Is this a reference to her current dementia or is it foreshadowing?  Does she walk with a candy cane and have a (peanut) brittle hip?  I don't know. I'm asking because I've never seen the flick.  And don't even get me started on 'Princess Lolly'...
