What it is
A gummy fried egg, white with a yellow yolk, soft and sweet with a mild fruit flavour. Pure novelty and a long standing pick and mix favourite.
Taste
Where it comes from
The fried egg is one of the classic novelty gummy shapes, made in Europe since at least the 1970s. It belongs to a family of food shaped sweets, along with chips, burgers and pizzas, which children find funny for reasons that have never changed.
What it's made of
A white gum deposited first, then a yellow yolk dropped into the centre, set with gelatine and glazed with carnauba wax and beeswax.
