Abstract: Provided is a soft candy that is sufficiently chewable even if sourness has been removed, and has, for example, excellent compatibility with milk flavors, green tea flavors, and the like. The soft candy, which combines at least saccharides, vegetable oil, an emulsifier, and gelatin, comprises one or more components selected from a group consisting of gluconic acids, gluconates, glucono delta lactones, phytic acids, phosphoric acids, and phosphates, and is made such that the pH is 2.0 to 6.0 in mass conversion when measured by melting in nine times the amount of water.
