Swedish Candy: Authentic Flavors and FAQs
Swedish candy is beloved around the world for its playful shapes, perfect texture, bold flavors and balance of sweet, sour and salty. In Sweden, candy isn’t just a snack, it’s a tradition. Families often enjoy “lördagsgodis,” or Saturday sweets, as a weekly treat, making it a cultural staple passed down since the 1950s. World Market’s collection brings that tradition closer to home with imported gummies, licorice and sour candies that capture the taste of authentic Swedish candy.

Is Swedish Candy Gluten Free?
Many authentic Swedish gummy candies are naturally gluten free, making them accessible to a wide range of candy lovers. Some licorice styles may contain wheat, so always check the package details.

Is Swedish Candy Healthy?
Swedish candy is still candy. It's meant to be enjoyed as a treat. However, many varieties are less processed than typical mass-market sweets, with a focus on texture and flavor rather than excessive additives. Think of it as a special indulgence rooted in cultural tradition rather than an everyday staple.
Is Swedish Candy at World Market Imported?
