Hometown: Crafted in Germany by candy makers who have been in the biz for over a century. Taste: Tropical fruits like pineapple, mango and orange come through in each morsel. These gummies are softer in texture than a conventional gummy, but still chewy. Talents: Delicious tropical taste and vegan goodness! These sweet, naturally-flavored gummies get their chewiness from tapioca starch, a plant-based alternative to gelatin, which makes them vegan friendly. The uncommon floral flavors make these candies a fun and tasty alternative to traditional gummies.
