> it would be “piruletas” (at least in Spain Spanish).

In Spain Spanish I never heard them called anything else than "chupachup" (regardless of brand), guess it's a bit of a "Kleenex/facial tissue" syndrome going on there.

Well, we would refer to chupa-chups (brand) to the ones with a ball head. And Kojaks if they had gum inside.

Piruletas were the flat ones, either circular or heart shaped.

What about the classic heart-shaped bright red "piruleta" from the "fiesta" brand?

That's a piruleta. The spherical ones are chupa-chups.
