Sour Patch Kids are chewy candies known for their unique combination of sour and sweet flavors. They were first introduced in the 1970s and are now produced by Mondelēz International.

Each candy is shaped like a small figure and coated with a sour sugar that creates a sharp tangy taste at first, followed by a sweet fruity flavor. This contrast is what made Sour Patch Kids so popular with candy fans.

The candies come in several fruity flavors such as lemon, orange, raspberry, and lime. Over time, the brand has also released many variations including watermelon, tropical mixes, and other limited editions.

In the United States, Sour Patch Kids are especially popular in movie theaters, convenience stores, and candy aisles.

Sour candies exist in Europe, but Sour Patch Kids have become a classic example of American sour candy culture. Explore the different Sour Patch Kids varieties available.
