🍬 Is Your “Swedish Candy” Really From Sweden?

Yesterday I got contacted from a company who wanted to sell Faked Swedish Candy to me!

Swedish candy has become a worldwide trend — and we love seeing people discover the joy of Lördagsgodis (Saturday Candy)!
But recently, candy labeled as “Swedish-style” has started appearing in the U.S. — and many of these sweets are not made in Sweden at all.

At Nantasket Sweets by Swedes, we want to help candy lovers understand how to spot the real thing.

🇸🇪 What Makes Swedish Candy Special

Real Swedish candy (svenskt godis) is known for its high quality, unique flavors, and careful balance of sweet, sour, and salty.
It’s made under strict European food standards and usually comes from iconic Swedish brands like Bubs, Malaco, Cloetta, and Fazer.

✅ Always look for the label “Made in Sweden.”
✅ Check that the candy is imported by a reputable distributor.
✅ Real Swedish candy doesn’t contain high-fructose corn syrup.

🚫 The Rise of Fake “Swedish Candy”

Unfortunately, some companies are creating “Swedish-style” candy made in other countries, using the Swedish flag or Swedish-sounding names to confuse customers.

These imitations are not produced with Swedish ingredients or recipes — and often use artificial colors and flavors that don’t reflect true Swedish quality.

🕵️ How to Tell the Difference

Before you buy, check:

• Origin: Does it say Made in Sweden?
  
  

• Ingredients: Real Swedish candy often uses natural flavorings and European sugar.
  
  

• Brand name: Authentic brands include Malaco, Bubs, Cloetta, Fazer, and Toms.
  
  

• Retailer: Support candy stores that directly import from Sweden — like us!
