Pim's Pick 'N' Mix

Dye-Free Candy

Dye-free candy is the normal kind in Sweden, not a specialty line. Nearly every candy on this wall takes its color from food rather than from synthetic dyes, so this shelf is built by reading each maker's own ingredient list and leaving out anything that names Red 40, Yellow 5, Yellow 6 or Blue 1.

Candy without artificial dyes, read off the label

What gets left off this shelf

A candy appears here only when the ingredient list its maker prints names no synthetic dye. We check every list mechanically instead of trusting a checkbox on a spreadsheet, and the check runs again whenever the catalog changes. That turned up something worth telling you: every synthetic color left in our whole range is a blue one, brilliant blue in almost every case. It shows up where you would expect, in blue raspberry and blueberry, and also in the greens and the violets, because green is blue plus yellow. So the pieces to skip if you are avoiding dyes are the green frogs, the pear shapes, the melon, the violet rolls and the blue raspberry. Every product page prints the full ingredient list, so you can check any piece yourself.

Where the color comes from instead

Read the lists on this shelf and the same short set of ingredients keeps coming back. Carotenes from carrot and paprika do the oranges, curcumin from turmeric the yellows, chlorophyll and spirulina the greens, black carrot the reds and purples, beetroot the pinks, safflower the pale yellows, caramelized sugar the browns and vegetable carbon the blacks. It is why a Swedish candy wall looks a little muted next to an American one: these are the colors that vegetables and spices can actually make. One to know about, since shoppers avoiding dyes often assume plant: carmine, listed as E120, is a red made from cochineal insects. It is not a synthetic dye, so it is not screened out here, and dozens of candies on this shelf contain it.

If you are avoiding animal ingredients too

Dye-free and animal-free are different questions, and this shelf only answers the first one. Carmine is here, and so is the odd candy set with gelatin or glazed with beeswax. If plant-only is what you need, the vegan shelf is the stricter filter, because a candy only lands there when its maker marks it vegan. If gelatin alone is the problem, the gelatin-free shelf is the complete list and keeps the toffee and chocolate in play. Use the three pages together and the wall narrows to exactly what you eat, without reading a label twice. Every order is weighed and packed by hand in Boca Raton and ships across the US.
