sour gummies

Acidic chewy sweets

Sour gummies are chewy candies coated with a tart, acidic sugar mixture that creates a puckering sensation.

The sour coating—typically citric or malic acid—contrasts with the sweet, fruity interior.

They come in various shapes: worms, bears, rings, watermelon slices.

I ate so many sour gummies my tongue is raw.
