What is Wax Bottle Candy

Wax bottle candy, also known as "candle candy" or "wax candy", is a unique candy.

Wax Bottle Candy has a unique production process and rich flavor, which is popular among consumers. The main ingredients of wax bottle candy are sugar, glucose syrup and gelatin. These ingredients are mixed together, heated to a certain temperature and then cooled and molded through a special mold.

This sugar cube is then cut into various shapes, such as bears and bunnies, and finally packaged for sale.
