Actually, ‘candy flipping’ is mixing the drugs ecstasy and LSD, for a more intense high.

“Candy flipping” is when one takes ecstasy and acid together.

“Rolling” is another term for taking ecstasy.

Keep in mind that we're interested in terms that are not well-covered in mainstream dictionaries, or not covered at all. A mass of unexamined Google hits counts for nothing, but an early use of the term you've found in a book or periodical is very useful. A term does not have to be new to be recorded here, it merely needs to be worthy of more attention.
