Gummies are typically small, uniform and chewy, but Gupperz flips expectations with two-bite liquid-filled gummies that offer an elevated experience with flavor and texture.
Size-wise, each Gupperz is 18 grams—six times larger than traditional gummies—and they need to be large to share pockets filled with flavor. While Strawberry Milk Splash appeals to fans of all things sweet and creamy, Sour Squirt Grenades have a juicy, extreme sour apple artificially flavored center. Adventurous flavor seekers will also be drawn to Poppin' Pickles with a sweet gummy candy flavor on the outside and a sour filling within, and Gen Z's love of bubble tea is recognized in Boba Tea Blast, which surprises and delights with four assorted flavors in a single pack.
