Traditional Hard Caramel Candy in Australian Retail
This segment has steady, loyal Australian demand with a seasonal peak around Christmas gifting — a different buying pattern from mainstream impulse confectionery, requiring separate merchandising consideration.
European Hard Candy Sourcing for Australia
Australian GST (10%) applies to confectionery in full — unlike most basic food, sweets and chocolate are specifically excluded from Australia's GST-free food category. Food imports also require biosecurity clearance through the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry alongside standard Australian Border Force customs processes, and labelling must meet the Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) code. There is currently no comprehensive Australia–EU free trade agreement in force, so buyers should confirm current MFN tariff rates with a licensed customs broker. Candora Trading supplies European hard candy and traditional confectionery formats in bulk and private label for Australian import, including seasonal and gifting formats.
