Sour Patch Kids and Snapple Brands partner for candy collaboration

The Sour Patch Kids brand is igniting taste buds this summer with an exciting partnership with Snapple, the iconic beverage brand that delivers fun and flavourful teas and juice drinks. Together, the brands are introducing one of the boldest flavour mash ups yet, Sour Patch Kids Snapple fruit-flavoured mix candy. The limited-time offering is arriving in stores nationwide now in three tantalizing flavours inspired by the Snapple brand’s popular juice drinks: Mango Madness, Kiwi Strawberry, and Fruit Punch that are sure to delight fans of both Sour Patch Kids and Snapple.

“At Sour Patch Kids, we’re always looking for inventive ways to introduce new flavours and spark excitement among our fans,” said Grace Howard, innovation brand manager, Mondelēz International. “And what better way to do that than by partnering with Snapple, whose iconic juice drink flavours perfectly complement our sour-then-sweet experience.”

This collaboration merges two beloved brands, bringing Snapple’s refreshing juice drink flavours into the delectable Sour Patch Kids candies. “Joining forces with a fellow Gen-Z favourite like the Sour Patch Kids brand allows us to give Snapple fans a delicious new way to treat themselves to their favourite Snapple flavours, and supports the brand’s vision to inspire a more flavourful world,” said Kelli Freeman, senior vice president of marketing, Keurig Dr Pepper.
