Korean Scorched Rice Candy | Toasty Nurungji Hard Drops | 9.87 oz
Scorched Rice Candy is a hard candy made in Korea by Chilsung Confectionery (칠성제과) and distributed by Ilkwang Confectionery (일광제과), with real scorched-rice (nurungji) powder and condensed milk for a toasty, comforting flavor — individually wrapped, sourced by Kosbee.
Nurungji — the toasty scorched rice at the bottom of the pot — is a nostalgic, comforting taste in Korea. This candy captures that warm, roasted-rice flavor in a simple individually wrapped drop you can enjoy anywhere.
Toasty, Comforting Nurungji
Made with real scorched-rice (nurungji) powder plus a touch of condensed milk, each drop has a warm, lightly caramelized roasted-rice flavor with a gentle, creamy sweetness — cozy and familiar rather than sharply sweet. It melts slowly as a clean hard candy.
