About Hard candies

Hard candies are small, solid sweets typically made from sugar or corn syrup that is heated to high temperatures, cooled, and hardened. They often include flavorings, colorings, and sometimes fruit extracts or natural essences to enhance taste. Originating from various culinary traditions, hard candies have been a popular treat worldwide, with recipes adapted based on regional ingredients and flavors. While they are fat-free and low in calories per piece, their high sugar content can contribute to tooth decay and spikes in blood sugar when consumed in excess. Some varieties may use sugar alternatives, which can reduce calorie content, making them suitable for certain dietary needs. Hard candies are also occasionally used to soothe dry throats or provide a quick energy boost, but moderation is key to balancing enjoyment and health considerations.
