Andes mint candies

Andes mint candies are small mint sweets with a smooth texture and a refreshing, balanced flavor, ideal for adding a fresh and sweet touch to various recipes, from desserts to drinks and cocktails.

Originating from the United States, Andes candies are easily recognized by their characteristic green-toned packaging and their intense yet not overpowering mint flavor.

These candies provide a unique taste that pairs perfectly in preparations like mousses, brownies, ice creams, or even in pastry decoration, adding a refreshing and distinctive touch.

In some Latin American countries, Andes mint candies may be known simply as mint candies or Andes mints, although their availability may vary.

Thanks to their combination of sugar and essential peppermint oil, they can also help freshen breath, although their primary use in cooking is to add flavor and texture to different recipes.
