he wanted the candy and ate a devil fruit mistaking it for candy

I doubt he ate a fruit directly. We know that he went into the secret room which has an acronym (S.A.D.) as its name. We also know that a devil fruit can be eaten by inanimate things per Vegapunk's experiments. Next, we know that Vegapunk created a dragon (which Zorro sliced up and Luffy ate). There's also evidence of other dragons on the island since Sanji/Nami caught one while running from the killer smoke. I think there's a dragon fruit used as a fuel supply for the machine in this room and that it's Vegapunk's prior experiment. The machine's target gets fed the fruit's ability, but Momonosuke may have only received an insufficient dosage that left him unable to transform. It is also possible the goal of the experiment was to leave the target as a dragon on purpose. Maybe Oda caught a re-run of the Incredible Hulk and thought up the transformaton idea. If this scenario is correct, we just have to speculate on the room's name. Maybe Synthesis of Attack Dragons?
