— April 20, 2025 — Lifestyle
The Fruit Riot! Candy Crunch Cherries are an unexpectedly sweet and texture treat created with the help of Olipop to offer consumers the perfect option to pick up this spring or summer.

The product consists of cherries that have been freshly frozen before being covered with a crunchy candy coating created with Olipop Cola to give them a cherry cola flavor experience. The product is thus great for enjoying on its own or as a mix-in with additional items to achieve a sweet, unexpected taste experience.

The Fruit Riot! Candy Crunch Cherries are priced at $6.99 per pack and are making their debut now at Whole Foods both in-store and online with additional retailer availability expected to evolve into the summer months.
