More on that below! While most sour candies are based on naturally tart fruit flavors — e. Each has its own unique flavor profile and level of tartness. One of the most common ingredients in sour candy is citric acid. As you can probably guess from the name, this sour acid occurs naturally in citrus fruits like lemons and grapefruits, and can also be found in smaller amounts in berries and some vegetables.

Lightly dust a cutting board with sugar and flip the gelatin block out of the pan onto it. Remove the parchment and flip the piece of candy over once so that both sides have a fine coating of sugar. Cut into pieces with a greased pizza wheel, bench scraper or sharp knife I used all three, they all work!

Toss dredged pieces in the sugar-citric acid mixture and place on the cooling rack. Let the coated candies dry for 8 hours on the cooling rack until the coating is hard and crunchy.
