Pine Orange Candy

Pine is famous in Japan for Pine-Ame, its pineapple ring candy. Orange-Ame, as this one is called in Japan, is its citrus sister: a bright orange hard candy from the same Osaka confectioner, which has been making fruit candies since 1951.

Sunshine in a wrapper.

It is made with juice from oranges grown in Japan, so the flavor is fresh, sweet, and a little tangy.

Pine sums it up in two words: “refreshing and juicy.” The taste is clean and natural, never heavy.

A little naringin, the natural bitter note found in citrus, is added too. It gives the candy a hint of real citrus peel, so the sweetness never feels flat.

The warm orange color comes from carotenoid coloring, the same family of natural pigments that makes carrots and oranges orange.

Pine started in Osaka in 1948, and three years later it made the very first Pine-Ame. Orange-Ame comes from the same company and the same love of fruit candy.

Each candy comes in its own wrapper, which makes it easy to carry, share, or save in a desk drawer for later.

One piece weighs about 4.7 g and has only about 18 kcal, so it is a light treat for any time of day.

Simple and cheerful, Orange-Ame is an easy way to discover the world of Japanese hard candy.
