Issei Mochi Gummies in Yuzu: Japan's most aromatic citrus in a soft, pillowy gummy unlike any candy you've had.
- Candy Innovation: Issei invented the mochi gummy - their secret tapioca rice flour blend creates a texture that's softer than a gummy bear yet chewier than a marshmallow.
- Yuzu flavor: Yuzu blends mandarin, grapefruit, and lemon notes into something floral and tart that's distinctly Japanese.
- Vegan & Nothing Artificial: Natural colors, vegan (no gelatin), non-GMO, kosher, and gluten-, soy-, and nut-free - the cleanest candy label you'll find.
- Award-winning innovation: Issei won the 2024 Most Innovative New Product Award at the Sweets & Snacks Expo.
For anyone curious about yuzu who wants it in a delectably soft and chewy gummy, and for anyone who want a clean-label candy that doesn't compromise on fun.
