About CANDY CORN CANDY, CANDY CORN
Meijer Candy Corn Candy is a seasonal confection sold under the Meijer private-label brand at Meijer supercenter locations across the Midwest. Meijer, Inc. is headquartered in Grand Rapids, Michigan. This formulation is the most recent USDA-documented version of Meijer's candy corn and features a notably different binding and texturing system from earlier entries, using potato protein and rice protein in place of egg whites and soy protein.
Sugar is the primary ingredient, followed by corn syrup and dextrose as sweetening agents. Honey contributes minor sweetness. Confectioner's glaze (shellac) provides the characteristic glossy coating. Salt is included for flavor balance. Acacia gum (gum arabic) serves as a stabilizer and binding agent. Artificial flavor provides the sweet, vanilla-forward candy corn taste. Modified potato starch, potato protein, and rice protein form the structural and binding matrix — a plant-based alternative to the egg white and soy protein system found in older formulations. Carnauba wax finishes the exterior. Colors Yellow 5, Yellow 6, and Red 40 produce the traditional candy corn tri-color pattern.
Per 100 grams, this candy corn provides 367 calories, no protein, 96.67 g of carbohydrates, no fat, and no dietary fiber. The calorie density is very high, entirely from simple sugars. Unlike earlier Meijer candy corn formulations, this version contains no eggs and no soy protein, making it egg-free and soy-free. The honey and shellac components still render it unsuitable for strict vegans. No wheat, dairy, tree nuts, or peanuts are listed. The reformulation toward plant-based proteins may appeal to those avoiding egg or soy allergens.
