The ingredients for Haribo Starmix include glucose syrup, sugar, dextrose, gelatine, and citric acid. Fruit juice from concentrate (including strawberry, lemon, apple, blackcurrant, orange, and pineapple) along with fruit and plant concentrates (such as apple, bilberry, carrot, safflower, spirulina, elderberry, blackcurrant, orange, lemon, mango, passion fruit, aronia, and grape) are used for flavouring and colour. Other ingredients include caramelised sugar syrup, sunflower oil, and glazing agents like beeswax and carnauba wax. Regarding allergens, Haribo Starmix is not suitable for vegetarians or vegans due to the presence of pork gelatine and beeswax in the UK product. However, the gelatine source can vary by country. For allergens such as gluten and milk, while the product does not have these as direct ingredients in the UK, cross-contamination is a risk as other products containing wheat (like Pontefract Cakes) and milk are processed in the same facilities. Haribo advises consumers to check the packaging, where any potential allergens will be listed in bold. The product is made without nut ingredients, and the company has guidelines to prevent cross-contamination
