    "content_text": "Fizzy dummies are gummy sweets moulded in the shape of a baby's dummy and coated in sour sugar, so they tingle on the tongue. They are sold loose in pick and mix.\nWhat is in them\nRecipes vary between makers. CandyKing, a pick and mix supplier, lists the ingredients of its Fizzy Dummies as:\nSugar, glucose syrup and water, the base of the sweet.Gelatine, for the chewy set: see gelatine in sweets explainedLactic, malic and citric acids, and sodium malates, for the sour tingle: see what is malic acid in sweets?Natural flavourings.Spirulina, safflower, grape and black carrot concentrates, and the colours curcumin and paprika extract: see natural colours in sweets\nCandyKing describes them as palm oil free, made with natural colourants, and gives 62 g of sugar and 0.22 g of salt per 100 g.\nWhere the fizz comes from\nFizzy sweets can tingle in two ways. Some contain bicarbonate of soda, which reacts with acid on your tongue to give off bubbles of carbon dioxide, like sherbet: see why do fizzy sweets fizz on your tongue?\nCandyKing's Fizzy Dummies list acids but no bicarbonate, so their tingle comes from the sharp, sour coating itself. The sodium malates are partly neutralised acids, which help stop a sour coating turning wet and sticky: see how are sour sweets made?\nDiet and allergies\nThe CandyKing recipe contains gelatine, which is made from animals, so it is not suitable for vegetarians or vegans. CandyKing also reminds shoppers that pick and mix scoops are used in different boxes, so allergens can move between them: see pick and mix and allergies\nMore fizzy sweets\nSee also fizzy worms and fizzy cola bottles\nIn our pick and mix\nWe sell SW018 by the 100 g. Recipes differ between makers, so the card opens up to show the full ingredients and allergens for the fizzy dummies we actually stock.",
