CLEANThe lowest-sugar and highest-fibre gummy in the Mezmo range.

Strawberry with a kick of licorice, soft and chewy, coloured with real fruit instead of synthetic dye. No refined sugar, with prebiotic fibre in its place.

Of the four flavours with a published lab report, this is the lowest in sugar and by some distance the highest in fibre — 37.8g sugar and 23.3g dietary fibre per 100g, against 53.5g and 14.1g for the apple. It carries 360 kcal per 100g, and a serving is 8g.

It is still a sweet, and we would rather say that than sell it as a health food.

What to look for in Fruit Gummies?
01

'No refined sugar' is not sugar-free — check total sugar per serving.

02

Confirm the sweetener (fruit juice, dates, or sugar-alcohol).

03

Sugar-alcohols (maltitol/sorbitol) can upset kids' stomachs.

04

Check the gelling agent — pectin (veg) vs gelatin (non-veg).
