Product Description



The Art and Science of Candy
We were the first to craft a delicious sugar-free lollipop. Then, we took our love for culinary science and confectionery art even further by creating candy that is made with all-natural ingredients, fortified with important nutrients, and is tooth-friendly. But, you’d never know if we hadn’t told you. They taste that good!

Feel good. Do good.
Rest assured, you can feel good, and guilt-free, about enjoying and sharing our delectably wholesome sweets with everyone you love. Even better, a portion of every purchase you make supports charities that promote children’s health. Sweet!

- Reviewed in the United States on April 1, 2025Flavor Name: LemonSize: 3.85 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified PurchaseThese taste great, are since they are sugar free , you can eat them all day. My diabetic son can share them too. Individually wrapped, so you can carry some wherever you go. Well packaged in a recyclable bag and came as promised. Great buy for anyone looking for dry mouth problems.

- Reviewed in the United States on December 11, 2024Flavor Name: Signature SourSize: 1 Pound (Pack of 1)Verified PurchaseRight amount of sour, pretty decent taste except not a fan of the lemon, it tastes kind of weird to me. That's why I got the mix instead of just the lemon. My dentist told me I needed to suck on sugar free sour candies because I have dry mouth from medications I take. These are great and they last awhile in your mouth. It's not a candy to bite into. It's very hard. But tasty and does the trick!
- Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2025Flavor Name: Black LicoriceSize: 1LBVerified PurchaseHORRIBLE!!! I am sorry I have to give this even one star. I love their candies but this licorice flavored hard candy is inedible. It tastes nothing like licorice! It is bitter and more of a chemical flavor. Then to top it off they do not give a refund. BAD QUALITY PRODUCT AND SERVICE!!!
- Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2025Flavor Name: Signature SourSize: 3.85 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified PurchaseDid I enjoy this candy? Absolutely. Did it meet my expectations? No.
I have anxiety. I’ve heard about the technique of using a sour candy to distract from an anxiety attack. Well, I also have insulin resistance so I have been looking for a sugar-free sour candy which it turns out is a tall order.
Unfortunately, I was disappointed when I tasted these because they really don’t taste sour. While I enjoy the flavors (especially grapefruit) they aren’t sour. A big bummer.
I do think the nutrition for this candy is awesome, though. They have a good amount of fiber and are made with xylitol which is great for oral health.
Overall, I think they are pricey and not necessarily worth the cost considering they are not anything special outside of the nutritional values. Bummer!
- Reviewed in the United States on April 2, 2025Flavor Name: Black LicoriceSize: 1LBVerified PurchaseVery tasty, soothing for my sore throat also. Not what they are advertised for, but a great asset to them!
- Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2025Flavor Name: Strawberry, Watermelon and Green AppleSize: 3.84 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified PurchaseI recently had surgery and I am unable to eat normal foods. But I missed the flavor, so I figured that I’d try a hard candy and I do not regret purchasing these candy's. I do however wish that they would have more green apple, or even have the option to purchase a bigger bag. But either way I highly recommend these candies.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 1, 2024Flavor Name: Black LicoriceSize: 1LBVerified PurchaseLet it be clear. I love licorice. I love chewy soft licorice candies. I love hard licorice candies. They can be expensive and made with all natural organic perfectly healthy ingredients, or they can be cheap crap from the bargain bin. I love them whether they are the tiny severely intense kind or the big sugary drops that barely have any flavor. Yes, I even love licorice root, those brown sticks that sometimes still have a little dirt still left on them. I could chew on one, stringy fibers stuck in my teeth, for hours. For the sake of this review, it must be stated that I also love clove, including its slight numbing effect in my mouth.
And I do not love these candies.
I thought it would probably be impossible not to, due to my fondness for every other kind of licorice in the history of licorice products.
Let me explain. For the first 20 or 30 seconds after popping one of these little jewels into my mouth, I was excited. Yes. Yum yum! Licorice!
But then for the next minute or so that it sat on my tongue, the flavor started to transform. At first it got a bit less licorice-like and a bit more clove-like, with a sharpness, a slight spiciness, which was also pretty much okay, but a little disappointing after the initial promising licorice experience.
Unfortunately, the longer I held this thing in my mouth, the more numb my tongue became, and the more the flavor slowly turned from clove into something more akin to the likes of some sort of lighter fuel.
I persevered, licorice lover that I am, but it only got worse until finally it had completely dissolved. Phew!
I thought I could put another flavored candy in my mouth, like, hey, this watermelon flavored one, to end the numb lighter fuel torture, but it lingered on and on. The watermelon, and then the lemon, and then the cherry were simply no match for it. My poor tongue had to wait a long time for normalcy to return.
I wish so much I could love these sugar-free licorice candies because I really do not want sugar, nor do I want most artificial sweeteners. But alas, I’ll have to go back to chewing on sticks.

5.0 out of 5 stars DR JOHNS SWEETS SUGAR FREE SOUR FRUITS
Flavor Name: Signature SourSize: 3.85 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified PurchaseThis beautiful delicious lollies came to me by chance. I have bought them multiple times and each time I open them like a little kid. Bring a diabetic it’s so h ward to find products that don’t taste like awful fake sugar, or are totally tasteless. This little nuggets of sunny fruits that have been picked straight from the tree are mouth watering and you just want the bag to be endless. Well worth the money. The fruit flavours are just bursting with juiciness! There is nothing I don’t like.
