Swedish candy brand Sockerbit is offering a look at its newest products at the 2026 Winter FancyFaire, including its first-ever foamy gummies.
A bag of Bubs Foamy Licorice Raspberry Skulls is full of sweet bites that exclude gelatin and other animal additives like beeswax and carmine. In all, the ingredient list is simple, building on a base of glucose-fructose syrup, sugar, corn starch and water with salmiak, licorice extract, malic acid, potato protein and a few other purposeful additions.
Sockerbit's latest innovation, Foamy Lips & Skulls, launches at Target in March 2026. These foamy and sour yet well-balanced bites are full of natural raspberry, strawberry, and forest fruit flavors and the sensorial qualities snackers crave.
