Sour Patch Kids Glow Ups are a first-of-their-kind innovation, shaking up the candy aisle with the world's first gummy candy that glows under blacklight. As ever, these chewy gummy candies are sour then sweet, but the experience of savoring the candies is made more exiting with a glowing edible confetti coating.
These chewy candies get their glowing properties from turmeric extract, which is flavorless yet impactful under a blacklight. The Sour Patch Kids Strawberry-Watermelon Glow Ups go beyond flavor and experiment with a multi-sensory experience that captivates other senses. Thanks to their glow, these playful sour-then-sweet candies are ideal for movie nights and blacklight events.
Sour Patch Kids created an exclusive augmented reality Snapchat filter for those without a blacklight to help all fans experience the unique glow.
