About Sour candy

Sour candy is a sweet-and-tangy confection known for its intense puckering effect. Typically made with sugar, corn syrup, citric or malic acid, and artificial flavorings, this treat comes in various shapes, textures, and flavors, such as lemon, green apple, or berry. While originally popularized in Western cuisine, sour candies have become a global favorite. The sourness is achieved through the addition of acids, giving them their signature tart taste. Nutritionally, sour candy is high in sugar and calories, which can contribute to energy spikes but may lead to cavities and weight gain if consumed excessively. It lacks essential nutrients such as fiber, protein, or vitamins. The acid content can also be harsh on tooth enamel with frequent consumption. However, these candies can be enjoyed in moderation as a fun treat, offering a quick burst of flavor and energy.
