Pick n mix sweets are adored by people of all ages. Taking a look at bestselling pick n mix lines only confirms the popularity of sour flavours among UK pick n mixers! From Fizzy Bubblegum Bottles to Watermelon Slices and countless other choices, many of the most desirable lines across pick and mix stands across the country are sour! Most often these are gummy treats with a sour sugar coating, but you also see classics like Flying Saucers and the Barnetts Mega Sour range.
American sweets are increasingly popular in the UK and they may be a factor behind the current swell in demand for sour sweets. The American candy landscape is filled with not just sour, but supremely sour sweets that for some might even be too much! The prime examples of such sweets being Warheads and Toxic Waste. Both of these brands in particular possess such a kick that they inspired competitions across school yards to see who could eat the most! American sour candy isn’t all about challenging yourself though, there are many delicious options that are much tamer! From the makers of Red Vines you have Sour Punch, fun and fruity liquorice lengths with a sour coating that come in a range of packs and flavours.
