The Edible Gummy iPhone Case is a bizarre foodie-tech creation from Korea. These chewy cases are apparently completely digestible and come in [eight different delectable flavors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chew-topia-gummy-jerky). You must be warned, however, that they are not typical bonbon ingredients. These covers are more suited for one with an exotic taste, like Kimchi, Fermented Apple or Pickled Berry. These savory sleeves won't leave any sticky residue on your iPhone unless you're sucking on them while the phone is still inside, so make sure you take your phone out before gnawing on the case. It may sound weird, but at least the Edible Gummy iPhone Case will save the day when you're absolutely starving. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.4/10 - Popularity: 48% | Activity: 77% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Mobile](https://www.trendhunter.com/mobile) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Edible Phone Cases:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: merging the world of tech and food for on-the-go snacking and protection for mobile devices. - **Novelty Food-related Tech:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: creating even more unique and creative food-related technology items to appeal to foodie-tech enthusiasts. - **Exotic Flavored Products:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: expanding into new flavor territories to cater to those with adventurous palates. ### Where This Applies - **Mobile Phone Cases:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: exploring new materials and functions for mobile phone cases, such as edible options. - **Food Technology:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: inventing novel food-related technology that provides unique experiences and expands the boundaries of what is possible with food. - **Specialty Foods:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: developing new and daring flavors to diversify and expand the world of specialty foods ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Ketchup Packet Phone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heinz-phone-case.md) - [Precisely Made Edible Earbuds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/candy-airpods.md) - [Playful Custom Tech Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/charm-phone-case.md) - [Smartphone Case Pin Charms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/customizable-smartphone-cases.md) - [Plantable Phone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/igreen-cover.md) - [Scent-Encapsulated Phone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aroma-scent-phone-case.md) - [Luxurious Smartphone Chocolates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chocolate-iphone-15-pro-max.md) - [Vintage Grocery-Themed Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kakao-friends-1.md) - [Gorpcore-Inspired Smartphone Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultra-bounce-case.md)
