I'm also not crazy about giving anyone a lot of information about myself. What does See's do with the information it receives when I place an order?
I

Sugar Free FAQs
Why has See's Candies introduced Sugar Free Candy?
Customers have been requesting See's Sugar Free candies for years. After extensive research and product testing, we are proud to offer the only Sugar Free candy good enough to be called See's.
top of page
What makes these products "Sugar Free"?
See's Sugar Free products meet the FDA regulations for Sugar Free candies, which can contain 0.5 grams or less of sugar per serving. Our products contain sugar substitutes like Maltitol (a sugar alcohol), Sucralose (a high intensity sweetener), and Polydextrose (a bulking agent) instead of sugar.
top of page
What are sugar alcohols, high intensity sweeteners and bulking agents?
· Sugar alcohols are sugar substitutes used to take the place of sugar to make Sugar Free candy. Sugar alcohols provide a sweet taste. Sugar alcohols are digested more slowly than sugar; generally producing a relatively small rise in blood sugar levels after eating.
· High intensity sweeteners are artificial substances that are many times sweeter than sugar.
· Bulking agents are substances that have no nutritional value and are used to occupy volume.
top of page
How does See's Sugar Free candy fit into a balanced and healthy lifestyle?
Sugar Free confectionery products are a treat and can be enjoyed by almost everyone, but moderation is the key.
top of page
Is See's Sugar Free candy lower in calories and/or fat?
See's Sugar Free candy is not a low calorie or low-fat food.
top of page
Why isn't See's Sugar Free candy called Sugar Free Chocolate?
The FDA maintains "standards of identity" for every product. The standard of identity for chocolate includes sugar. Since our new Sugar Free products are "sugar-free," we cannot use the term chocolate when selling this product.
top of page
Can I order a special pack combining both Sugar Free candy and See's traditional candy?
No. Due to labeling requirements, Sugar-Free candies and traditional candies cannot be combined into one box. These two items must be sold separately.
top of page
Do sugar substitutes have any digestive side effects?
One of the reasons that sugar substitutes are lower in calories and carbohydrates compared to sugar is that they are digested and absorbed in a different way. In the process of digesting sugar substitutes, some digestive side effects can occur that have a laxative effect.
top of page
Does See's Sugar Free candy carry any warning labels or information statements?
Yes, to be in compliance with labeling regulations for sugar free products a warning label appears on our packaging cautioning of a potential laxative effect due to the presence of sugar alcohol, high intensity sweetener and bulking agents in our products.
top of page
Can I include a personalized greeting card with my order?
