Well, my sweet tooth has been extremely active lately.  I did some research
with a few candy manufacturers and I'd like to share my findings with the
list.

1.  Tootsie Roll Industries - 773-838-3400
      States all their products are gluten-free.  They use corn in them, no
gluten.

2.  Hershey's
        I checked several of their products.

          a.) Tastetations - all flavors are gluten-free, except for
butterscotch.  It seems there is a artificial flavoring and the manufacturer
won't disclose it's content to Hersheys.  So to be safe, she said to avoid
butterscotch.  The other flavors are all okay - artificial flavoring in those
is from vanillin which is gluten-free.

          b.) Classic Caramels - both varieties, plain and chocolate filled,
are gluten-free.

          c.) Hershey's miniatures - all varieties are okay, except for the
Crackle.

          d.) Hershey's kisses - all are gluten-free


3.   Nips - made by Nestle
          States all flavors are gluten-free.  These are really delicious,
especially the peanut butter filled.

Hope this helps anyone who  has a craving for candy.
