Healthy Candy By Chris Kong on Sep 15, 2007 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

In my handbag I always have a packet of Ricola Fresh pearls . It is made from 13 Swiss mountain herbs namely Burnet, Cowslip, Elder, Horehound, Lady's Mantle, Mallow, Marshmallow, Peppermint, Plantain, Sage, Speedwell , Thyme and Yarrow.

Pros: Ricola fresh pearls are very chewy and I am chewing one right now while typing this. They are chewy because they are made from a natural fiber called gum arabic . There are 7 cool flavours to choose from . The flavour I like best is Spear mint because it refreshes my mouth and breath naturally. It does not melt as quickly as other candies in the mouth . The box comes with a deep flap which helps to keep the candies intact in the box. And the best of the bestt is - it is sugar free , so what else is more suitable for diabetics than these refreshing healthy candies!!

Cons : None.
