Move over traditional gummy bears—2025 is all about gourmet, global, and exotic gummies. Whether it's Japan’s juicy fruit textures or Germany’s iconic Haribo flavours, imported gummies are quickly becoming a favourite among candy lovers in Canada. At InOutSnackz, our international gummy lineup offers an elevated snacking experience that’s hard to beat.
In this post, we’ll explore why imported gummies are taking over shelves and what makes them so different from North American candy brands.
What Makes Imported Gummies So Special?
Imported gummies are often crafted with better ingredients, higher fruit juice content, and more adventurous flavour combinations. Unlike many North American brands that lean heavily on high fructose corn syrup and artificial flavouring, gummies from Europe and Asia often use real fruit puree, natural sweeteners, and even functional ingredients like collagen or vitamin C.
Texture is also key. European and Japanese gummies, in particular, are known for their chewy-but-not-too-hard consistency that provides a much more satisfying mouthfeel.
Top Global Gummy Picks at InOutSnackz
1. Kasugai Fruit Gummies (Japan)
These gummies come individually wrapped, each one bursting with authentic fruit flavour—like lychee, mango, and muscat grape. The texture is pillowy and soft, and they’re made with real fruit juice.
2. Trolli Sour Glowworms & Planet Gummi (Germany)
Germany’s Trolli brand is famous for its sour creations. The Planet Gummi, filled with sweet-sour liquid, has gone viral globally and is a must-try.
3. Haribo Goldbears (Germany)
The OG of gummy candy, Haribo uses a denser texture than American-style gummies. Their fruit flavour range includes elderberry, raspberry, and apple, offering more nuance than the typical cherry-grape-orange rotation.
4. Vidal Watermelon Gummies (Spain)
Sweet and juicy with a perfectly chewy centre, these watermelon-shaped gummies are both nostalgic and novel. Spanish gummies are known for their balance between sweet and tangy.
Why North American Gummies Are Falling Behind
While there’s no shortage of brands like Lifesavers, Welch’s, and Swedish Fish, North American gummies often fall short in quality. The flavour profiles are usually basic and overly sweet, lacking the complexity and innovation of international brands.
Another factor is cultural influence—countries like Japan and Germany treat gummy candy with more craft and culinary attention, while in North America, they’re often viewed as a kid-only treat.
What’s Trending in 2025: Functional & Novelty Gummies
The global gummy market is also shifting toward functional candy—think collagen-infused, CBD, or vitamin-enhanced gummies. In Japan and South Korea, gummies that improve skin or focus are flying off shelves.
At InOutSnackz, we’ve seen increased demand for:
- Energy Gummies
- Relaxation Gummies with herbs or melatonin
- Functional Fruit Gummies packed with vitamin C or electrolytes
