About Handful of candy corn
A handful of candy corn is a classic seasonal treat originating from the United States, typically enjoyed during autumn festivities like Halloween and Thanksgiving. This brightly-colored candy is molded to resemble kernels of corn, featuring a sweet and slightly waxy texture. Made primarily of sugar, corn syrup, and edible dyes, each kernel of candy corn delivers a burst of intensely sweet flavor. While candy corn is fat-free, it is high in simple carbohydrates and artificial food colorings, making it a source of quick energy but lacking essential nutrients. Its calorie content can add up quickly, so moderation is key for those watching their sugar intake. Popular for its nostalgic appeal rather than its health benefits, candy corn is a fun, seasonal indulgence best enjoyed sparingly as part of a balanced diet.
