The Katjes Wild & Free foam gummies are headed to the market this spring to provide consumers with a plant-based candy option that doesn't skimp on taste or texture. The product is crafted with no animal gelatin in the mix and comes in a series of playful shapes that will call to mind the Wild West like boots, cowboy hats, cacti, bandanas and more. The candies are plant-based with colors derived from plants and algae, while also being free from palm oil and high-fructose corn syrup.
The Katjes Wild & Free foam gummies come in orange, peach, raspberry, strawberry, cherry and grape flavor options, and is available now on Amazon with retail expansion coming in April.
