Lollacaps

Lollacaps refers to a type of small, often brightly colored, chewable capsules that contain a flavored liquid or gel. They are primarily marketed as a confectionery product, designed to offer a burst of flavor and a novel sensory experience. The name itself is a portmanteau, combining "lollies" (a common term for candy) and "capsules," hinting at their small, enclosed nature.

These items typically consist of an outer shell, often made from gelatin or a similar edible polymer, which encases a liquid filling. When bitten into, the shell ruptures, releasing the concentrated flavor. Lollacaps come in a variety of fruit and sweet flavors, and their appeal is often directed towards children and teenagers due to their playful presentation and taste.

The production of lollacaps involves specialized food manufacturing techniques to create the delicate outer shell and safely contain the liquid interior. They are generally found in candy stores, convenience stores, and online retailers. While primarily a novelty candy, their unique texture and flavor release mechanism distinguish them from traditional hard candies or gummies.
