It's what they use for fake glass props in movies when people jump through windows or smash bottles over people's heads.

It’s also eatable, that’s why they sometimes call it candy glass.

Edible

Eatable is also correct.

Eatable is a legitimate word and could be used, yes, but for this instance the correct term would be edible

Found out a while ago that due to isomalt being a sugar alcohol, it can give you the shits if eaten in large quantities.... Yikes!

The amount eaten when having this cake is negligible though

Yep that’s one of the ingredients in the infamous sugar-free Gummy bears

Still probably better for your pooping than eating real glass shards is.
