Overconsumption may be harmful to the body.
Artificial oils and fats:High quality candies should avoid using artificial oils such as hydrogenated vegetable oils (including creamer, vegetable fat powder, margarine, cocoa butter substitutes, etc.). These oils may contain trans fatty acids, which are harmful to cardiovascular health.
Food additives and food coloring:High quality candies should have no or low levels of added food additives and food coloring. Although these artificially synthesized additives can make candy look bright and tempting, with endless variations in taste, long-term intake may be detrimental to health.Pay special attention to avoiding controversial artificial sweeteners such as aspartame.
