About Swedish candy

Swedish candy, or "svenskt godis," is a popular treat rooted in Sweden's culinary tradition. Known for its vibrant colors, diverse textures, and bold flavors, it often includes gummies, licorice, chocolates, and sour sweets. Ingredients typically feature sugar, gelatin, starches, flavoring agents, and sometimes salt, particularly in licorice varieties. Some options incorporate natural fruit extracts for flavor, while others rely on synthetic additives. Nutritionally, Swedish candy is high in sugar, making it an indulgent, energy-rich snack. However, moderation is key, as excessive consumption may contribute to health risks such as tooth decay and weight gain. Certain brands offer options free of artificial coloring and use plant-based ingredients for vegan consumers. While Swedish candy is not considered health food, its rich assortment and cultural significance make it a beloved occasional treat for many.
