A Night in the Bowl: Meet the Gang
“I’m a Fizzy Cola bottle from Candy People. People think I’m tough, but I’m basically an emotional support snack.”
I’m here to electrify your mouth and make your lips do that thing. Tangy, fizzy, and a little dramatic. But under all that sour attitude? Pure softness. I’m vegan, gelatin free, and chewy perfection. Candy People knew what they were doing—I’m built for sour lovers and nostalgia chasers alike.
“Marianne? Oh, she’s got opinions and a peppermint swirl to match.”
She floats around like she’s royalty. Classic mint chocolate wrapped elegance from Fazer. She’s what you give your grandma and your dentist. Iconic, cooling, and surprisingly sassy.
“I’m Bubs Skalle. Half sweet, half sour, fully chaotic good.”
TikTok loves me. Parents don’t get me. I’m 100 percent plant based and proud. Whether you bite my sour side first or save it for last says a lot about you. I’m more than candy. I’m a cultural moment—and pure Bubs energy.
“We don’t talk about Djungelvrål… but I will.”
Oh yeah, I went there. The black sheep. The dare. The legend. Djungelvrål from Malaco is salty licorice turned up to eleven, coated in a powder that makes your face do gymnastics. If you know, you know. And if you don’t… you’ve been warned.
“I’m Plopp, from Cloetta. Yes, laugh it out. But I’m pure caramel confidence.”
I’ve got the gooey golden center everyone secretly craves. People underestimate me because of my name, but Cloetta knows how to do comfort candy. Creamy milk chocolate, smooth caramel—I’m the quiet classic that hits every time.
“Remember me? I’m Fruxo from Cloetta. You used to beg for me at the checkout.”
I was the pastel dream. Fruity, chewy, and strangely satisfying. A gummy icon from Cloetta’s candy hall of fame. And then one day—poof. Gone. I paved the way for gummy greatness. You’re welcome.
“I’m a Malaco Zoo monkey, and I run this jungle.”
I’m wild, chewy, banana flavored, and have been fueling Swedish kids’ imaginations since the seventies. Sure, they call me a monkey, but I’m basically a nostalgic king of Saturday candy. No lions, no crocs—just me and my troop. And yes, I’m proud Malaco royalty.
“Let’s not forget Gott & Blandat, the original crowd pleaser from Malaco.”
I’m balance, I’m variety, I’m Saturday in a bag. Sweet, salty, fruity, licoricey—I’m basically the mixtape of Swedish candy. Everyone wants a piece of me, and honestly, who can blame them?
Drama in the Bag: Licorice vs. Everyone
“I’m Tyrkisk Peber from Fazer, and I don’t melt under pressure.”
You want heat? I’ve got it. Not just salty—I’m spicy. I start slow, then build into a licorice firestorm. People think they can handle me, and then they read the label and reconsider. I’m not your average licorice drop—I’m a Finnish Swedish legend forged in the furnaces of Fazer. The ones who love me? Loyal for life. The ones who don’t? Still talk about me like I’m an ex they never got over.
“We gummies are just trying to hold this squad together.”
We’re the glue of the candy bag. Sweet, sour, sugar free, or full blast—we adapt. We’ve got cousins like Tweek and Pandy doing the health conscious thing. Tweek rolls in with that high fiber, low sugar energy like it’s training for a half marathon. Pandy? Always polished, always lean, probably drinks green smoothies. Then there’s the Bubs raspberry skulls—bold, berry packed, and TikTok famous. Candy People’s Fizzy Cola bottles? Fizzy legends with a cult following. Fruxo from Cloetta? Not gone, just quieter these days—but still a gummy icon with serious staying power. Whether you’re talking Gott & Blandat’s juicy mix or a single Zoo monkey from Malaco, we may look different—but we’re all gummies at heart.
“We need to talk about the Sour Incident.”
Look, we love Sour. We really do. But last Friday? Total meltdown. Powder everywhere. It got in Marianne’s wrapper, soaked into the caramel guys, and turned a few foam bananas into sticky little ghosts. The sour sugar avalanche destroyed the aesthetic. As the classic sweets, we have integrity. We have pride. We cannot live like this.
“Sour never apologized.”
They just fizzled in the corner like nothing happened. Typical.
When the Candy Bowl Goes Quiet
“Some of us aren’t flashy. We’re just… solid.”
You don’t always need explosions. Sometimes you just want a chewy raspberry ring, a banana foam from Bubs, or a classic Malaco jelly. Not every candy wants to be famous. Some of us are here to bring balance—the carbs of comfort, the soft background singers of snackdom.
“But don’t forget: we’ve gone global.”
We used to sit quietly in Swedish kiosks. Now? We’re jet setting international candy. From LA yoga bags to Midwest pantries, our sugar free gummies, salty licorice, vegan sweets, and iconic brands like Bubs, Malaco, Fazer, Cloetta, Tweek, and Pandy are on a mission to totally surprise your taste buds.
