The texture decision comes first
The biggest difference between Prince of Peace Ginger Hard Candy and Prince of Peace Ginger Candy Chews With Lemon is how they feel in your mouth. The hard candy is a solid piece with a concentrated center of real ginger flavor, so it lasts while you suck on it. The lemon chews are soft and pleasantly chewy, with a mix of sweet and spicy ginger plus natural lemon flavor.
If you want a candy that lingers, choose the hard candy. If you prefer something you can chew and finish quickly, the lemon chews are the better fit. Both come in 4oz bags and are individually wrapped, so either works for a purse, desk drawer, or sharing.

Allergens and dietary notes
The labels list different allergens, so check before you buy or share.

Flavor: straight ginger vs lemon
The hard candy focuses on ginger alone. Its concentrated center gives a sweet-and-spicy ginger taste without any other flavor added. The lemon chews pair ginger with natural lemon flavor, which adds a citrus note and makes the ginger taste a little brighter.
Choose the hard candy if you want a pure ginger flavor. Choose the lemon chews if you like lemon and want a softer, fruitier ginger candy.
How to choose based on your routine
- For long-lasting flavor: The hard candy dissolves slowly, so it suits situations where you want a candy to last, such as a movie or a long drive.
- For a quick chew: The lemon chews are soft and can be eaten quickly, which makes them handy when you want a fast treat.
- For sharing: Both are individually wrapped and come in 4oz bags, so either is easy to pass around.
