Summary:A low or no fat confection is prepared containing 80% soluble solids wherein at least 70% of the solids are carbohydrates. The mixture containing carbohydrate, a cationic reactive and thermalsensitive hydrocolloid and an edible canon containing material is cooked or its solids concentration adjusted to 80% solids while hot. The molten mixture is then cooled to form a solid confection having a water activity being 0.30 to 0.65 Aw and a pH from 3.0 to 8.5.
