Swedish berries

Swedish Berries are a type of candy that originated in Sweden. They are small, soft, and chewy candies that are shaped like small berries. They are typically red in color and have a sweet, fruity flavor.

History

Swedish Berries were first introduced in Sweden in the early 20th century. They were originally made by the Malaco company, which is a Swedish confectionery company that has been in operation since 1934. The candies quickly became popular in Sweden and eventually spread to other parts of the world.

Production

Swedish Berries are made using a process called starch molding. This involves creating a starch mold of the desired shape, then filling the mold with a hot, liquid candy mixture. The mixture is then allowed to cool and harden before being removed from the mold. The candies are then coated with a thin layer of wax to give them a shiny appearance and to prevent them from sticking together.

Flavor and Ingredients

The primary flavor of Swedish Berries is raspberry, although they can also be found in other fruit flavors such as strawberry and blackberry. The candies are made with a variety of ingredients, including sugar, corn syrup, and natural and artificial flavors. They are also typically colored with red food dye.

Popularity

Swedish Berries have become popular worldwide, particularly in North America. They are often found in movie theaters and are a popular choice for Halloween candy. They are also commonly used as a topping for desserts such as ice cream and cupcakes.
