Warheads Sweets

About Warheads Sweets

Warheads have a reputation as one of the sourest sweets around and are one of the most popular American candy brands. However, they were created back in 1975… in Taiwan. When they came on the scene, they were an instant hit as there had never been anything like it! The hard candy was so sour that word quickly spread and it became a phenomenon. Schoolchildren would have contests in the playground to see who could eat the most sour Warheads candy at once! The brand was imported into the US where it quickly became a household name – people knew of it even if they couldn’t handle the power of sour! Now owned by American manufacturer Impact Confections, Warheads are a global star of the sour candy landscape. Here at Hancocks, we offer the Warheads sweets range in bulk and you can rest assured that like all of our American candy, they are compliant with UK food legislation.  

Types of Warheads Sweets

When they were first created, Warheads were a supremely sour, hard sweet that would cause you to scrunch your face up. From then, a host of American sour sweets have become popular as the trend continues to grow. Today, their classic Warheads hard candy is still going strong, but it is joined by a breadth of other exciting lines that help to unleash the power of sour. These include soft and chewy sweets, innovative liquid candy and much more. This means that it is easy to fill your shelves with a selection of Warheads lines, to capture more sales from those with a penchant for a sour treat. A recognisable brand, adding Warheads to a collection of sour or American sweets will only increase the appeal to shoppers and sour sweet lovers. Here, we will talk through some particularly popular lines that would look great on your shelves.

Warheads Super Sour Candy

Still on offer today, the Warheads Extreme Sour Hard Candies come in a variety of forms. The Warheads Mini Extreme Sour Hard Candy 49g comes in a convenient resealable plastic container with a flip top, which makes it a great treat for on-the-go kids and is ideal for the playground! Offering a more conventional pack, the Warheads Extreme Sour 28g offers shoppers a lower price point, but the same five flavours of sour sweets. For those stores who need a lot more of the classic sour treats, we have the Warheads Extreme Sour Hard Candy Bulk 13.6kg box. This is certainly the best way to stock up!

Warheads Sour Sprays and Drops

Another innovative novelty treat, liquid candy is proving popular with sweet lovers.
