Where it comes from

Cherry is one of the standard European pencil flavours alongside strawberry, apple and blackcurrant. The format comes from southern Europe and the flavours were chosen for how well they hold up in a fondant, where delicate flavours are lost.

What it's made of

Sugar, glucose fructose syrup, wheat flour and maize starch extruded as a rope around a fondant, with halal beef gelatine, flavoured with cherry.
