Chiclets are a brand of candy coated chewing gum made by Cadbury Adams. The product's name is derived from chicle (Nahuatl tziktli), the substance from which chewing gum was traditionally made. The original flavor was peppermint but many flavors have been added and discontinued over the decades since the introduction in 1906. Assorted fruit flavor is still available in the U.S.
The brand was featured in the top-grossing 1997 film Face/Off where the character Castor Troy (Nicholas Cage) keeps the gum in an ornament box amongst drugs and his most treasured items.
