Just eaten a Nestle chocolate penguin with Smarties inside.

The ingredients list Carnauba Wax and Beeswax as 'glaze' ingredients.

Crikey. :shock:

You are supposed to read the ingredients before eating, it's a bit late after :)

Presume that's where the expression 'I'm going to polish off a chocolate bar" comes from :)

Did it taste OK?

Very good :)
 
Tooty Fruities are another on with carnuba wax on the shell to give them a polish. Its quite common in the world of sweeties to make them shiny and it also helps them not to stick to each other.

any hard coated sweet (jelly beans, skittles, liqourice torpedos etc.) will be made with carnuba or beeswax as a coating, as said, it is what makes it shiny, it also taste rather nice when it doesn't have a solvent in it. oh and all those shiny pills your doctor prescribes too (almost an identical process).

have a look for wood fibres, they are in a large amount of food.
