About HOT CANDY
Lucas Hot Candy is a Mexican-style sugar confection with a bold sweet-spicy-salty profile, combining sugar, high fructose corn syrup, and corn syrup with iodized salt, chili powder, citric acid, and sodium lactate. Per 100 g, it delivers 350 calories and 87.5 g of carbohydrates, with no protein, fat, or fiber. Sorbitol syrup contributes additional sweetness; modified corn starch, guar gum, and xanthan gum provide the thick, pourable or soft-chew texture depending on format. Caramel color and natural and artificial flavors complete the profile. A 40 g serving is standard. A deeply culturally specific Mexican candy popular for its intense combination of sweet heat and salt. Not suitable for low-sugar diets. Widely enjoyed across Latin communities and increasingly popular in broader US markets.
