About Candies, confectioner's coating, butterscotch
Butterscotch confectioner's coating is a commercial compound coating used in candy manufacturing, typically made from sugar, partially hydrogenated vegetable oil, and butterscotch flavoring. It lacks the cocoa butter that defines real chocolate, relying instead on vegetable fat for its melt. The profile is high in fat and sugar in roughly equal measure, and there is no fiber or meaningful protein. It is an industrial ingredient more than a finished candy, though some products use it as a stand-alone coating or chip.
