Gummy candy manufactured by Kasugai is better than any other brand. This Kasugai Gumi 100 Apple is the perfect example, apple being a ubiquitous flavour across most gummy brands.
Every aspect elevates Kasugai gummy candy, starting from the use of 100% real fruit juice to give the intense flavour of fresh apples right from start to finish.
Each gummy is a domed disc with soft, powdery skin, almost an inch in diameter. Each gummy candy also has an incredible mouthfeel that’s beautifully smooth with the softness of a good chewy jelly, but with a cleaner bite and less chew than Western gummy candy, which makes me think it had a lower gelatin and higher starch content. The gummy candy dissolves without the viscosity caused by higher gelatin content giving the sensation of a deliciously juicy apple flavour.
They are really satisfying gummy candy, and the only thing keeping you from devouring the entire bag is their individual packaging.
This Kasugai Gumi 100 Apple contained 107 g or 27 pieces of individually wrapped gummy candy. It was produced in Japan and purchased in Kōbe, Japan in 2015.
