Are you concerned about your weight, but still want your candy?

Sugar Candy or hard candy is a favorite of all small children as well as many grown ups. We like to call these loyal lifetime candy connoisseurs, the "Mob". Let me tell you that hard candy is so universally popular, that you would be hard pressed to find one Mob member who doesn't enjoy at least one flavor or type.

Sugar candy in all its sweet beautiful forms (there are literally thousands) is made from a thick solution of sugar water and then adding one or many tasty and attractive colors or flavors. Some countries take the mix and freeze them to make ice pop candies. Unfortunately this is not common in United States, which is too bad in my opinion.

The actual widely used term "candy" covers a wide term which includes chocolates, toffees, chocolate based candy bars, chewing gums, liquorice and anything else that you can think of which tastes good and sweet. Many people traditionally refer to candy as confectionery or sweets.

I doubt we in the mob care so much about what you call it. The mobsters love the way it tastes, we have our absolute favorites, and we try to avoid the guilt of that love.

So try this on for size. Believe it or not, not all sweets are created equal for the weight conscious member of the world wide candy loving mob. For instance think about the classic favorite the lollipop.

Think about the old fashioned simple lollipop. A lollipop is sugar candy with a little stick to hold it. When you compare a lollipop to a rich chocolate, nougat, or caramel treat, there is no contest which one is better for your waistline.

The major reason for this is that a desert with hard candy is overall much less total food. Still, your sweet tooth is satisfied. Consider the tried and true Dum Dum lollipop has experienced consistently awesome sales for years. Dum Dums or any of its many relatives can be made during the creation process to lessen sugar load without compromising taste. Standing alone a lollipop does have it's share of sugar, but its overall calorie load is limited to it's size.
