About TAMARIND CANDY
Tolteca Tamarind Candy is a Mexican-style confection combining the sour-fruity flavor of tamarind pulp with chili heat and salt. Per 100 g, it contains 429 calories and 92.9 g carbohydrates, with no fat or protein, reflecting the high sugar and corn syrup content typical of hard candy. Iodized salt and sterilized ground chili create the signature sweet-sour-spicy-salty balance familiar in Latin American candy traditions. Citric acid intensifies the tartness, and sodium benzoate is used as a preservative. This product is gluten-free and contains no dairy, nuts, or soy. The 14 g serving size makes calorie control straightforward, though the sugar density is high. Best consumed as an occasional treat rather than a regular snack.
