The % is just a probability, so yes, they are all 100% possible het for amel.
Here's what's happening behind the curtain:
The male candycane has gene a<sup>a</sup> paired up with a<sup>a</sup> and one of these will be in each sperm cell.
The female normal has gene A<sup>+</sup> paired up with A<sup>+</sup> and one of these will be in each egg cell.
The offspring will have come from eggs that were A<sup>+</sup> fertilized by a sperm cell that was a<sup>a</sup>, so they will all be A<sup>+</sup>·a<sup>a</sup> (which is what "normal, het for amel" means.)
