Default Trying to identify glue-like sweet substance

Hi all,

I want to bind some ingredients like nuts and oats.
I need a substance that is sweet and sticky
like honey when heated, but that is solid when
it's at room temperature.

Anybody know what food items are like that?

I see that some candies use something like
corn syrup for this purpose, for instance
there is a peanut bar that is just peanuts
and this binding substance. I want to avoid
high fructose corn syrup since I read
it may be linked to the obesity epidemic.

Thanks.
