• All-Natural Candied Fruit: This is made from actual fruits or berries that are preserved with sugar. Sometimes, acids like malic acid from apples, citric acid from citrus fruits, and lemon juice are added to enhance the natural flavors of the fruit. The end product is a sweet treat that retains much of the fruit’s original nutrients and taste. Made By: John, Professional confectioner.


• All-Natural Flavored Candy: This type of candy is made to taste and look like fruit but doesn’t contain the actual fruit. Instead, it uses sugar, natural fruit or berry flavorings, and vegetable-based colors to mimic the appearance and taste of real fruit. The result is a candy that tries to have the essence and taste of fruit without containing the actual fruit itself. Made By: No Name, food scientist.
