Puntini FRUIT MIX, WITH STEVIA (65 Ct - 2.8 oz Resealable Pouch)

8 net carbs per serving
Twenty-four pieces equal a serving but one or two at a time is plenty to me as these are NOT a chomp-chomp-swallow sort of treat.That said a serving is 24 pieces with 26 total carbs. Eleven can be taken off for fiber and only 7 for alcohol sugar (it is 14 total, but as it is Maltitol it will impact your blood sugar and so only half can be taken away) meaning for diabetics and say Keto folks this means 8 net carbs for 24 pieces or 1 carb for every 3 pieces of candy.Not all alcohol sugars can be skipped in carb counts. Erythritol, Xylitol, Mannitol, and Lactitol do not count as they will not raise blood sugar levels, so you can take away their full carb count. Maltitol, Sorbitol, Isomalt, and Glycerin all are partially absorbed and so only HALF the total carbs from these may be deducted to reach the "net carb" count.I was not a fan of all of the flavors in this mixed bag and while I liked the lemon, I think I liked the black currant single flavored ones from the same maker much better.

Juju candies from the 70s
These meet a need. They are definitely European sweets (made in Italy) so not overly sweet. They are chewier than most US gummies and more bland.I hadn’t had a piece of candy in weeks (no sugar diet) and very grateful to have them to chew on. They work with a low carb diet.

Great option for those avoiding sugar/carbs. One flavor is weird.
I'm grateful to have a candy option that fits my low carb lifestyle but these candies are super pricey and one flavor tastes like soap to me. It's the one in the lavender wrapper. All the other flavors taste as they should: lemon, orange, lime, etc but the purple one is funky. I figured out that if I rinse it first with some water to wash off the top layer of slightly powdery coating, then it's fine, but one shouldn't have to do that. Of course, taste is subjective and you might love the soapy flavor!I will buy these again because there are very few other low carb options that use stevia/monkfruit/erythitol (others use artificial sweeteners) but I wish there were other less pricey options.

No! Just NO!
I really wanted to like these. As soon as they arrived I opened them. They are NOT chewy at all. Each piece is the size of my pinky nail. The flavor is just ok. The texture is horrible. You can't chew them. You can't suck on the like hard candy bc they get slimy and are so small you almost swallow them. I can't believe I wasted about $8 on this tiny bag. How disappointing!!

Buyer beware!!!!
This item is not the prepackaged item sold by Puntini. What you get is a seller packaged item of loose jujubes and the count is 46 instead if the 72 you get with the 2.8oz product. There is no nutritional info, nor an expiration date.

Not a tasty product
There was no package labels at all which I have never seen!!! That being said the product was weird. It started like a hard candy (which I thought I was getting) and turned into a leathery gelatinous yuck. I don’t recommend!!!

Very small package by
I thought that the package was gonna be larger. It was tiny, 4 inches tall and 3 inches wide
