The [fruity candies with a Mexican twist](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/simply-the-goodz-x-tajin) are individually wrapped, vegan, non-GMO and gluten-free. The Tamalitoz ChewLows can be found in fun flavors like Divine Watermelon and Pineapple Galore, both of which are enhanced with a sprinkling of chili lime and sea salt. Naturally sweetened with monk fruit juice concentrate, the candies also get their colors from nature, specifically red cabbage extract and turmeric. The [low-sugar candies with a kick](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sour-blobs) boast less than one gram of sugar per chew and they fall in line with a range of better-for-you confections that cater to the values of health-conscious consumers who want to snack differently. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.9/10 - Popularity: 48% | Activity: 58% | Freshness: 12% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Low-sugar Confections:** Tamalitoz ChewLows offers a low-sugar and healthier alternative to traditional fruit candies. - **Spicy Fruit Flavors:** Incorporating chili lime and sea salt elevates the taste profile of fruity candies. - **Natural Sweeteners and Colors:** Using monk fruit juice concentrate, red cabbage extract, and turmeric as sweeteners and colors, respectively, offers a more natural alternative to artificial ingredients. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Health Food:** Tamalitoz ChewLows caters to the interests of health-conscious consumers who seek low-sugar, vegan, non-GMO, and gluten-free snacks. - **Candy Manufacturing:** Incorporating more natural ingredients in the creation of fruit candies provides an opportunity for candy manufacturers to innovate and cater to the health interests of consumers. - **Mexican Flavors and Cuisine:** Combining Mexican flavors like chili lime with fruit candies offers a new flavor profile for candy and snack industry players to experiment with. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Spicy-Sweet Lollipop Packs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chili-pops-chamoy.md) - [Zesty Dippable Lollipops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dip-lick-bubble-gum-pops.md) - [Functional Low-Sugar Candies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oomph-sweets-chews.md) - [Chewy Reduced Sugar Candies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hichew-reduced-sugar.md) - [Mexican Seasoning Gummies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tajin-gummy-bears.md) - [Sugar-Dusted Soft Chews](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chewits.md) - [Spicy Chamoy Gummies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spicy-gush.md) - [Spicy-Sweet Gummies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skittles-gummies-fuego.md) - [Chile-Lime Seasoning Lollipops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bon-bon-bum-x-tajn.md)
