How to Choose Sugar-Free Candy

Sugar-free products can be an option for people who want to reduce their intale of added sugar, including people with diabetes.

The American Diabetes Association's Standards of Care in Diabetes - 2026 recognizes that nonnutritive sweeteners many be used as an alternative to sugar-sweetened products in appropriate circumstances.

Sugar-free does not mean unlimited. People with diabetes have different nutritional needs, medications and blood-glucose responses.

Zolli Candy calculates net carbohydrates by subtracting applicable sugar alcohols from total carbohydrates, consistent with our nutrition-labeling approach. Because formulations and serving sized vary by product, we recommend reviewing the Nutrition Facts panel for the specific Zolli product you're considering.

If you have diabetes, consult your physician or registered dietitian about how sugar-free foods and sugar alcohols fit into your individual nutrition plans.
