Hard Candy & Lollipops in Candy(1000+)

Are lollipops safe for young children?

There is no set age for children to be allowed candy lollipops and this should be done at your own discretion. However, bear in mind that running with a lollipop isn’t safe and may be a choking hazard. Hard candy lollipops can be dangerous if the candy becomes loose from the stick, as it could easily be swallowed.

Is hard candy better for your teeth than soft candy?

Actually, the opposite is thought to be the case because hard candy and lollipops are sucked on and spend a longer time in your mouth than chewy candy, meaning your teeth have a longer exposure to the sugar.

Can I buy vegan hard candy?

Just like chewy candy, hard candy can often contain gelatin, beeswax, honey, cochineal, or carmine, which are animal products. It is possible to buy vegan hard candy, but you need to check the ingredients list or find a brand that specifically states on the packaging that it is vegan.
