what is isomalt? what are sugar alcohols in some sugarfree candy? if it is sugar free, why does it still have calories? how do you make hard candy without sugar.

Sugar alcohols — like isomalt, xylitol, sorbitol, maltitol — are not really alcohols; they’re reduced-calorie sweeteners that don’t behave in exactly the same way as a glucose-based sweetener. That makes them good for “sugar-free” candies, etc. Sugar alcohols provide about half the amount of calories as sugars and other carbohydrates.
So the calories come from the sugar alcohols, and the “sugar free” candy really isn’t.
