Korean Americano Coffee Candy | Real Roasted Coffee Drops | 24.69 oz
Ilkwang Americano Coffee Candy is a hard candy made in Korea by Ilkwang Confectionery (일광제과), with real instant coffee for a deep, roasted, bittersweet americano flavor — individually wrapped, sourced by Kosbee.
Founded in 1969, Ilkwang Confectionery (일광제과) has been making traditional Korean hard candy in Busan for over fifty years. This coffee candy carries that same simple craft — real coffee, individually wrapped, one drop at a time.
Deep, Roasted Americano Flavor
Made with 1% real instant coffee, each drop tastes like a clean, bittersweet shot of black americano — rich and roasted rather than creamy or overly sweet. It is made for grown-up palates and coffee lovers who like their sweets not too sweet.
What's Inside
- Real Coffee Flavor
- 1% real instant coffee gives each drop a deep, roasted, bittersweet americano taste, not an artificial coffee aftertaste.

- A generous 24.69 oz (700 g) bag with each drop individually wrapped — great for an office candy bowl, reception desk, or pantry.
- Made in Korea
- Produced by Ilkwang Confectionery (일광제과) in a HACCP-certified facility, Korea's national food-safety standard.
Each three-piece serving (0.42 oz / 12 g) is about 45 calories, and one 24.69 oz (700 g) bag holds roughly 58 servings.
How to Enjoy
Let a drop dissolve slowly in your mouth rather than biting down, which is easier on your teeth. Keep a few in your bag, car, or desk drawer for a coffee-flavored treat, or pair one with a glass of ice water as a post-lunch palate cleanser. Store in a cool, dry place away from heat and direct sunlight.
Allergens & Good to Know
This candy is made with real coffee, so it contains caffeine — use moderation if you are caffeine-sensitive, and keep it away from young children. It is produced in a facility that also handles wheat, peanut, soybean, and milk, so trace cross-contact is possible.
