What it is
Peanut butter drops are small, candy-like pieces made primarily from sugar, peanut butter, and often vegetable oil and flavorings. They are typically produced by mixing these ingredients and then forming them into small shapes.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use peanut butter drops as a confectionery ingredient to add a sweet peanut flavor and a chewy texture. They are commonly found in snack mixes, baked goods like cookies and muffins, and as a topping for desserts.
Health notes
Peanut butter drops are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. They are primarily a source of sugar and fat. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated similar sweetener and fat ingredients. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming foods containing peanut butter drops in typical amounts.
Allergen info
Peanut butter drops contain peanuts, which are one of the nine FDA major allergens. They do not contain gluten.
