About Us
In 1932, the Van Melle brothers took a train to Poland. This trip sparked the beginning of a Fresh New World. They had a vision of a peppermint flavored caramel candy to go by the name of Mentos. Mentos were manufactured in The Netherlands.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the rolls melt or stick together if I pack them in a hot car for a summer road trip?
The hydrogenated coconut oil base has a higher melting point than chocolate, so the rolls hold their shape in a warm car. For very hot days above 100 degrees, store them in an insulated cooler for best texture.
Is the peg bag durable enough to toss in a backpack or daypack for hiking?
The bag is designed for retail hanging display, so it is lightweight and reasonably tough, but the thin plastic can snag on sharp branches. Many outdoor users transfer the rolls into a small dry bag or ziplock for tougher conditions.
Can I use these as a quick energy boost on a long bike ride or hike?
The chewy texture and sweet fruit flavor offer a fast-acting pick-me-up that is lighter than a gel or energy bar. The individually wrapped format also means you can pull out a single roll at a trail stop without bringing the whole bag along.
Will the rolls stay fresh in a beach bag with sand and humidity?
As long as the individual wrappers stay sealed, sand and humidity will not affect the candy inside. Wipe off the wrapper before unwrapping to keep the sand out of your snack.
Are these safe to pack for international travel through airport security?
Solid wrapped candies are allowed through TSA and most international airport security checkpoints. Each roll is well under the 3.4 oz liquid limit, so you can pack them in a carry-on with no issues.
How does this chewy mint compare to energy chews or gummies for outdoor activities?
Energy chews are designed for performance and tend to have a stronger, more medicinal taste, while a chewy mint is a gentler, sweeter treat that doubles as breath freshener. The fruit flavor is also more crowd-pleasing for casual picnics and family outings.
Why pick chewy mints over a granola bar for a camping trip?
Granola bars can crumble, melt, and attract wildlife, while individually wrapped chewy mints stay contained and are not a major wildlife attractant. They are also a much lighter pack than a dense bar for short day hikes.
Can I use these rolls to freshen my breath after a campfire meal at the campsite?
Yes, the mint finish is a refreshing follow-up to a smoky campfire dinner, and the chewy texture works as a casual dessert that does not require utensils. The individually wrapped format also means no sticky fingers in a tent or shared cookware area.
Will the rolls get too soft inside a hydration pack or hip belt pocket?
Body heat and sun exposure can soften the chewy texture slightly, but the rolls do not melt into a liquid like chocolate would. Keep them away from direct sun on your back for the firmest bite.
What if the bag gets wet during a rainy hike—will the candy survive?
As long as the individual roll wrappers stay sealed, the candy inside is fully protected. If the outer peg bag gets wet, simply dry it off and the rolls inside will be untouched. Tossing a spare ziplock around the bag is a good rainy-day precaution.
Are these rolls easy to share with friends at a picnic or tailgate?
Yes, the individual wrappers make it simple to pass rolls around without anyone having to reach into a shared bag. Each person gets a clean, hygienic portion, which is especially nice at large group gatherings.
Can I bring a bag to a music festival or outdoor concert?
The slim 40-count peg bag fits easily in a fanny pack or small crossbody, and the individually wrapped rolls are quick to share with friends in a crowd. The chewy texture also means no loud crinkling that would bother neighbors during quieter sets.
How should I store an opened peg bag to keep the rolls fresh?
The peg bag is designed to be resealable, so simply fold the top and tuck the peg hole over a hook or clip to keep air out. Store the bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and the rolls will stay fresh for several months.
Can I transfer the rolls into a candy jar or countertop dispenser?
Yes, the individually wrapped rolls are perfect for pouring into a glass jar, candy dish, or countertop dispenser. The wrappers keep the candy clean even in an open-air jar, so you get the visual appeal of a candy bowl with the hygiene of a sealed piece.
How long is the shelf life of an unopened bag?
Mentos Chewy Mints typically have a best-by date printed on the bag that is well over a year from the production date, making them a great pantry staple. Always check the printed date on the specific bag you purchase for the most accurate timeframe.
Does this product work with a specific office candy dispenser or vending machine?
The individually wrapped 1.32 oz rolls are sized to fit most standard countertop candy dispensers, vending machine coils, and small retail bins. Check the dimensions of your specific dispenser to confirm the roll fits before ordering in bulk.
Are these rolls compatible with a low-sugar or keto diet?
Mentos Chewy Mints are made with sugar and are not formulated for keto or low-sugar diets. If you are following a low-sugar lifestyle, look for sugar-free candy alternatives, as these rolls are designed for traditional sweet-candy enjoyment.
What is included in the bag when I open it?
Each bag contains 40 individually wrapped chewy mint rolls in the fruit flavor, ready to eat or share. The outer peg bag is resealable for ongoing freshness, and no additional accessories or refills are required.
Is it safe to leave this candy in a hot mailbox or delivery truck during shipping?
Chewy mints are more heat-tolerant than chocolate, but extreme summer heat can still affect texture. Most major retailers ship candy in temperature-managed or quick-transit conditions, and the rolls are wrapped individually, so brief heat exposure is unlikely to ruin the product.
What if my rolls arrive melted or stuck together?
Because the rolls are individually wrapped, even if the candy softens, the wrappers usually prevent pieces from fusing. Refrigerate the bag for an hour after delivery to firm up the texture, and the chewy mints should return to their original consistency.
What is the difference between chewy mints and hard-pressed mints?
Hard-pressed mints are compressed into a small disc and dissolve quickly in your mouth, while chewy mints have a softer, taffy-like texture that lasts several minutes. Chewy mints are often preferred for their longer-lasting flavor and gentler bite, while hard mints are favored for their quick breath-freshening effect.
