About Fruit gum

Fruit gum is a sweet, chewy confection typically made from sugar, glucose syrup, fruit flavorings, and gelatin or pectin, serving as a base for its distinctive texture. Often bright and colorful, it originates from Western confectionery traditions and is enjoyed worldwide as a snack or candy. While fruit gum may contain trace amounts of vitamin C or natural fruit extracts depending on the brand, it is primarily a source of quick energy due to its high sugar content, making it less suitable for regular consumption. It contains minimal protein or fiber and can contribute to tooth decay if consumed frequently. However, varieties made with natural sweeteners and real fruit may offer a slightly healthier alternative. Fruit gum is not a significant nutritional source, but its appealing flavors and portability make it a popular treat for occasional enjoyment.
