Kopiko Coffee Candy is currently available in over 80 countries around the world.[3]
There used to be a widely available second variety of the candies which were kosher, supervised by the KF Kosher Federation in London, though it is no longer being produced. Kosher Kopiko candies can still be found in Israel, however.[4]
Kopiko Coffee Candy contains extract from real coffee beans. Ingredients include sugar, glucose, vegetable oil (palm oil and/or coconut oil), coffee extract (4.9%), butter, soy lecithin, caramel color, salt, and natural coffee flavor.[4]
Two different candy flavors are available: original coffee and cappuccino.[5]
The Kopiko UK website advises that "4–5 sweets contain the caffeine equivalent of a cup of espresso" for the original coffee flavor, while the cappuccino flavor sweets contain "around half the caffeine" of the original coffee flavor.[5]
The Caffeine Informer website estimates the caffeine content of the original coffee flavor to be "about 25 mg per piece."[6]
