TEL AVIV, IsraelCarmit Candy Industries will showcase its line of functional confectionery products for specific health indications at the Natural Products Expo West 2013 March 8-10 in Anaheim, Calif.

The line of fortified confectionery products are designed to offer specific health benefits without compromising taste or texture. For each health indication, ingredients are carefully selected for their scientific support, regulatory approval and technical parameters. The ingredients are then incorporated into one of the confectionery carriers such as chocolate coins, toffee-chews, crème-filled wafers and lollipops and undergo organoleptic and analytical testingto ensure both ingredient stability and delicious taste.

Highlights from the new confectionery product line include weight management wafer-bars with glucomannan and potato extract; bone health chocolate coins containing calcium, vitamin D and vitamin K; and immune health sugar-free toffee chews with echinacea, vitamin C and zinc.
