Fruit Bursts

Fruit Bursts are a popular type of confectionery known for their juicy, fruit-flavored centers. Originating from the United Kingdom, they have gained popularity worldwide due to their unique taste and texture.

History

Fruit Bursts were first introduced in the United Kingdom in the late 20th century. The original concept was to create a candy that would burst with fruit flavor upon being chewed, hence the name "Fruit Bursts". The candy quickly gained popularity due to its unique taste and texture, and it soon spread to other parts of the world.

Description

Fruit Bursts are small, round candies with a hard outer shell and a soft, juicy center. The outer shell is typically brightly colored to represent the flavor of the candy, while the center is filled with a fruit-flavored liquid. The candies come in a variety of flavors, including orange, strawberry, lemon, and blackcurrant.

Production

The production of Fruit Bursts involves several steps. First, the fruit-flavored liquid is prepared and set aside. Next, the outer shell of the candy is formed using a mixture of sugar, corn syrup, and food coloring. The liquid is then injected into the shell, and the candy is allowed to harden before being packaged and shipped.

Popularity

Fruit Bursts have gained popularity worldwide due to their unique taste and texture. They are particularly popular in the United Kingdom, where they originated, but they are also enjoyed in many other countries, including the United States, Australia, and New Zealand.
