Gummy / Gummi

No matter how you spell it, with a "y" or with an "i", gummy candies are one of the best sensations to hit the candy industry. They've been around in various forms for many years. You may think that Haribo's Gummy Bears started it all and you are right. But what may surprise you is that these gummy bears were around far longer than the fad that got its start in the 1980s.

Hans Riegel, the founder of Haribo, first developed gummy candy in Germany in the early 1900s using pectin and starch. Haribo's first gummi bears came out in the 1920s but didn't take off for another 60 years. Haribo finally started manufacturing their gummy bears in the U.S. in the 1980s and from there, the gummy bear craze took hold.

Today, gummy candy comes in every form imaginable from the cute little bears we all love and can't resist to the strange and absurd. You'll find gummi bears, worms, dinosaurs, rats, snakes, gummy fruit, and hamburgers and hot dogs.

The reason for so many shapes lies in both its popularity as well as the nature of the candy itself. It's made of gelatin, flavors, sweeteners, and colorings. The gelatin allows it to be molded into just about any shape possible. You name it, chances are there's a gummy version available somewhere in the world.
