Orange jelly candy are finger-sized sticks of soft jelly candy that are sold in food specialty stores in Hong Kong.[1] A great deal of candy available in Hong Kong is imported from Europe, mainland China, the United States and other regions around the world. Orange jelly candy is one of the few that have historically been manufactured locally in Hong Kong.[2]

The 1980s version of the candy came with a thin, transparent, edible wrapper. The candy is made at Smith's confectionery factory (史蜜夫糖果廠) at Kwun Tong.[3] The jelly sticks are very soft and sweet, and they do not have a strong orange flavor despite the name.
