Love hearts are small and circular sweets that are manufactured by Swizzels Matlow. The sweets are quite popular in the United Kingdom and they are essentially fizzy, hard, tablet-shaped sweets that are available in a range of fruit flavours. What makes these sweets different from others is a love-related short message on a single side of each sweet.
They can be sucked or chewed. As you chew these sweets, they will immediately disintegrate into a starchy, powdery consistency and then start producing effervescence. The experience is quite similar to having sherbet. In both cases, you'll experience a small amount of foam in the mouth. The key ingredients of these sweets are sodium bicarbonate, tartaric acid and sugar.
They are available in six different flavours and six different colours, which are yellow, white, green, orange, red and purple. While the yellow coloured ones have a sherbet-like flavour, white coloured Love Hearts have a distinctive tart vanilla flavour. The orange coloured ones have a slight orange after taste, the green colour has a lime flavour, the red coloured variety has a cherry flavour and the purple has a berry-like flavour.
Love Hearts are favourites amongst youngsters and teenagers. That's because of the love related messages that are engraved on these sweets. There are different kinds of messages that one can find on these sweets. Messages like ‘I Surrender’ and ‘Just Say No’ can be commonly found on these sweets. This makes them personalized and a perfect gift for somebody special.
These sweets are sold in a tubular pack that contains 20 tablets. You can also purchase a larger bag that contains 50 sweets. Alternatively, personalised packages are also available. The production of these sweets began somewhere around 1933 by Swizzels. Today these sweets are just perfect for celebrating or presenting to someone who is close to you. They are also very popular for wedding favours.
