About CHEWY DRAGEES

Mentos Chewy Dragees are sugar-shelled chewy confections with a soft center, available in watermelon flavor. Per 100 g the product provides 393 calories, 0 g protein, 92 g carbohydrates, and 2 g fat. The base is built on sugar and glucose syrup, with hydrogenated vegetable oil contributing to the chewy texture. Watermelon juice at 1% provides a real-fruit flavor note, complemented by citric acid for tartness. Gelling agents E414 (gum arabic) and E418 (gellan gum) give the center its characteristic consistency. Color comes from anthocyanins and curcumin -- both natural colorants. Carnauba wax and beeswax form the glazed shell. The product is a confectionery item; its caloric content comes almost entirely from sugars. Not a meaningful source of nutrients.
