Description

Lifesavers Five-Flavor Roll Candy is a very popular type of candy known for its circular shape with a hole in the center, which gives it its name "Lifesavers." This candy comes in a practical roll, with small, chewy pieces that combine five distinct fruit flavors, offering a varied and refreshing taste experience.

Originally created in the United States in the early 20th century, Lifesavers candies became famous for their innovative design and intense fruit flavor, becoming a classic in many kitchens and sweet recipes around the world. These candies are ideal for use as dessert decorations, for flavoring drinks, or simply as a sweet treat to enjoy at any time.

Regarding their properties, Lifesavers roll candies are low in fat and primarily contain sugars and artificial or natural flavorings. They do not provide significant nutrients, so their consumption should be moderate, especially for those monitoring their sugar intake. Their chewy texture and variety of flavors make them very popular, especially among children and young people.

Depending on the country in Latin America, these candies may also be known as "pastillas", "caramelos duros" (hard candies), "gomitas" (although this term is more commonly used for chewy candies without a rigid shape), or simply "rollos de caramelos" (candy rolls). However, the name Lifesavers is very distinctive and globally recognized as a brand.
