Gummy Candy — photo 1

Chewy candy of glucose syrup, sugar and gelatin with fruit flavors and colors, such as gummy bears, worms and chewy fruit jellies (zhevatelny marmelad). A 25 g handful gives about 85 kcal and 19 g of carbohydrate, including about 11.5 g of sugar, with almost no fat. The 1.7 g of protein is gelatin, which lacks tryptophan and is not a complete protein; vegan gummies set with pectin or starch have almost no protein.
