      I wonder if there’s a way to make them with natural sweeteners and not sugar.

      get out of your own arsehole, do you know what sugar is made of? Sugarcane. Do you know what Sugarcane is? It’s a fucking natural plant.

      not really, at least not that I know of. the formation of hard candy kinda depends on how sugar acts once you get it above certain temperature points. there’s probably a materials engineer somewhere that can offer you a sol’n that mostly does what you want but in the traditional world of candymaking sugar does a lot more than just sweeten.
