Is this a powdery type candy in paper packaging? If so, and especially if you don’t use them often, you might want to “test” them after a couple months.
I had hoped to use “pixie stix” for similar purposes, but found that they absorbed water out of the air and caused the sugar to partially solidify and adsorb to the paper wrapping in a way that prevented me from eating it.
In case it might be useful to others - my goal was to find a portable candy that would raise my BG quickly without requiring me to brush my teeth.
The packaging isn’t really flat, but I found that Nerds candy could be swallowed and absorbed relatively quickly without chewing.
Yes, it is basically colored sugar!
It’s a candy stick that you suck on and dip into sugar powder. Rinse and repeat until all the powder sugar is in your belly. My kids love those.
How about Andes mints? Or Ghirardelli chocolate squares? Not sure if temperature is a consideration - they might melt in warm weather.
I’ve used those both. They are small and flat. But as you mentioned, they get kinda melty!
Even a few of those works strongly for me…and the packaging is sturdy
Welch’s Fruit Snacks. These are gummies in a small near flat package. 16 grams of carbs per pack (each gummy is 1.5 grams carbs).
Thanks @Jim_YYC! I will check those out too. I don’t think I have tried them.
Found this amusing
Would you consider healthier flat options? If so, I like the organic fruit strips sold at Target stores everywhere or online. They’re individually wrapped and have 12 grams of carb including one of fiber.
VERY FLAT and nearly sweet as candy!
Ya @bob.carlson, that might work! Thanks!
They look similar to the Thats It bars I found at Costco.
