Historically candy makers have had to purify raw sugar just to start getting ready to make candy and their result was the syrup that we candy makers can buy today in modern times. There is a long tradition in the United States of processing corn going back to the Civil War era. The syrup is important in that it is slightly acidic and prevents the sugar from naturally wanting to recrystallize. The corn syrup we use is basically glucose (a liquid starch hydrolysate) and if it weren't from corn (which is plentiful here in the U.S.) it would just be from another natural source such as rice, wheat or potatoes.

Couldn't the Zzang bars use a hire grade ingredient. Corn Syrup just seems low grade for a world class outfit like Zingermans!
