Haribo Happy Cola Sour Gummy Bottles 175g (6.2oz)

Haribo Happy Cola Sour Gummy Bottles are the cola-bottle gummy format with a sour sugar coating — Haribo's sour variation of the cola bottle shape that has been one of the German candy maker's most popular individual gummy formats since Haribo first created the cola bottle shape. Haribo is a German confectionery company founded in 1920 in Bonn by Hans Riegel, whose original Gold-Bears gummy bear invented the gummy candy format and whose cola bottle, happy-cherry, and other fruit gummy shapes became the defining products of the international gummy candy category — Haribo producing the gummies that the entire world now considers the benchmark for the format. The sour coating on Haribo's Happy Cola represents the evolution of the classic gummy toward the more intense sweet-sour experience that younger consumers and adventurous sweet-eaters seek: a thin layer of citric-acid sugar coating on the cola-flavored gummy that delivers a sharp initial sour hit before the gummy softens and the cola flavor comes through — the combination creating a more complex eating experience than the plain cola bottle. Share from the bag as a casual confectionery treat, eat as a cinema or TV-watching snack, serve at a gathering alongside other Haribo formats for a mixed gummy bowl, or buy as the Haribo Happy Cola Sour that delivers both the familiar cola-gummy format and the extra-sour kick that makes it more interesting than the standard sweet-only version.
