About Sour Patch Kids
Welcome to the deliciously mischievous world of Sour Patch Kids! For decades, we've been delighting taste buds and sparking smiles with our iconic "sour then sweet" candy experience. We're more than just a treat; we're a moment of playful rebellion, a burst of flavor that awakens the senses and brings a touch of fun to every day.
Our Sweet (and Sour) History
The journey of Sour Patch Kids began in the 1970s, originally conceived as "Mars Men." These extraterrestrial-themed candies quickly captured imaginations with their unique texture and vibrant fruit flavors. However, it was in 1985 that our beloved brand truly came into its own, transforming into the mischievous, kid-shaped candies we know and love today: Sour Patch Kids. This rebranding marked a pivotal moment, cementing our identity as the ultimate sour-then-sweet sensation. Since then, Sour Patch Kids have grown from a cult favorite to a global phenomenon, constantly evolving with new flavors and forms while staying true to our core promise of an unforgettable taste adventure.
