Review: Best candy EVER!!!! - These candies are EXCELLENT!!! They are like alien marshmallows. The consistency is amazing, not sticky but pillowy soft with density. The flavor is unique and not over sweet like most candies. I could not control myself and the bag is now gone within 24 hours despite trying to better pace myself (and my son) due to the high cost. (I have had these candies in my watch list for almost 2 years before finally splurging). If the price was more affordable I’d be in trouble because these are VERY addicting. (Took away one star because they are pricey but… so worth it! Especially since there is no unnecessary dairy added like most products nowadays) … actually, I’m adding the star back for the fact they are vegan! So.. 5 stars even with cost that means I cannot have everyday like I’d prefer. Highly recommend just sadly may not ever be able to enjoy again.
Review: Yum! - So good! Not overly sweet. Love the soft texture and floral but fruity flavor.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How many candies in a bag?**
A: Indeed, the bag does not indicate how many candies are in the bag, and I happen to have only 3 candies left.  However, the bag does indicate that the net weight of the full bag is 300 g.  I have just weighed the individual candies I have left using a laboratory balance.  Each candy comes in its own individual wrapping.  The weight of a single candy with its wrapping is 13.00 g, and the weight of a single candy alone is 12.75 g.  Consequently, the number of candies originally in the bag was some where around 23 to 24 candies.

**Q: Dumb question but are these gluten free?**
A: Mochi is made with generally made with glutinous rice flour, but despite the name -- it does not contain gluten. In this instance 'glutinous' means sticky - not containing gluten.

**Q: Is there a list of ingredients ?**
A: Starch syrup, sugar, strawberry, juice concentrate, oblaat powder*, pectin, citric acid, sodium citrate, aroma chemicals, lecithin

*In Japan, oblaat is a thin, edible layer of starch used to wrap/enrobe some candies

**Q: what are the ingredients? Specifically is it gluten free?**
A: Mochi is made with rice starch, generally. Yeah, it's gluten free.
