thank you for yuor answers so far... to give a bit more context, this is related to children's ice creams and lollies. This particular one has "helado y chuches"... and another example in a sentence is "el consumo de la chuche es posterior ye puede ser gradual"

lollipops

Me inclino por "lollipops" ya que están hablando de chuches con palo... lo que limita a la chuchería a un caramelo con palo... es decir, a una piruleta, chupa-chups, etc.

que incluiría los polos y no sería sólo lollipops. ¿Son las chuches, de chucherías?

Será caramelo que va dentro del helado. Los niños llaman (o llamaban chuches a todo tipo de caramelos) goodies es igual de coloquial - en lugar de llamarlo sweets or candies
