Hammond's Candies FAQ Are any of your candies Gluten free? Yes! All of their candies are Gluten free. Their Pretzels, however are not Gluten Free. Are there any non-disclosed processing ingredients in your hard candy? Yes, there are two. They add about 1 ounce of a partially hydrogenated vegetable oil blend (palm, cottonseed, palm kernel) to each batch of candy as an anti-foaming agent. This oil is completely used up in the manufacturing process. They also use glycerin, 99.5% USP, (C3H5(OH)3) as the carrier for their colorants. A 70 pound batch of candy typically has about 50 grams of the color/glycerin blend. Do you use any artificial preservatives in your candy? No. They do, however, use citric acid, a natural preservative, to give tartness to their fruit flavored hard candies and to help breakdown carbohydrates in some of their soft candies, like chocolate covered cherries. Do you use titanium dioxide for your whites in the hard candy? No. They simply pull their candy long enough to mix in tiny air bubbles, which gives the candy its white appearance. They don't even have titanium dioxide in the building! My hard candy looked beautiful when I bought it, but it now looks runny. Why? Like all hard candies, Hammond's candy is hygroscopic and begins to degrade when moisture is allowed to enter the sugar structures. They are fortunate in Denver to have relatively low humidity because it keeps their candy dry and shiny. Once hard candy is removed from its protective, plastic coating, it will begin to degrade in hot or humid environments. Even in their storage facilities, where the humidity is typically lower than 40%, they experience some degradation.
