Name: The Jelly Bean Factory 36 Flavours
Brand: aran candy

Munch or Dump rates The Jelly Bean Factory 36 Flavours by aran candy TREAT — score 45/90.

Pure sugar candy with a genuinely clean, natural ingredient list - an honest indulgence, not health food.

Why this verdict

Sugar plus glucose syrup are the #1 and #2 ingredients - basically pure fast sugar
Refined maize starch adds more empty, blood-sugar-spiking carbs
But colours and flavours are genuinely natural - no artificial dyes or E numbers
Simple, recognizable list for a candy: an honest treat, not lab-engineered

Sugar (moderate) — Added sugar sitting ahead of cocoa; the main flavor driver here.
glucose syrup (moderate) — A second refined sweetener used for the caramel character; fast-absorbing sugar with no nutritional value.
maize starch (moderate) — Refined starch used to thicken the sauce — processing marker.
Fruit juice concentrate (pineapple, orange, apple) (moderate) — Used for flavour, but concentrated juice is essentially more sugar with trace fruit character.
Natural Flavourings (safe) — Flavour from natural sources rather than synthetic - a genuine plus over typical candy.
Plant-based colour concentrates (carrot, pumpkin, spirulina, radish, blackcurrant, hibiscus) (safe) — Real vegetable and fruit extracts for colour instead of artificial dyes - a clear quality win.
Acids (citric acid, fumaric acid) (safe) — Common, well-tolerated food acids that provide tartness.
Glazing agents (shellac, carnauba wax, beeswax) (safe) — Natural waxes that give the beans their shine; inert and harmless.
Coconut Oil (moderate) — Additional refined oil in the coating; high in saturated fat.
Acidity regulator (trisodium citrate) (safe) — A mild buffering salt to balance the acids; benign.
