Gummy Bears
Branded gummy bears arrive bulk packed in either clear cellophane or opaque full colour bags, and every one is stuffed with a cheerful mix of flavours. The cellophane bags come in a small handout size and a bigger, more generous fill, and their see-through sides let the reds, greens and yellows do the showing off. The opaque bags start with a tiny treat size that lists ingredients on the back, then grow into small tall and medium tall snack packs and a broader medium wide pack. A bear or two might lose an ear along the way, since a little chipping comes with gummies, but the flavour stays exactly the same.
A café owner wants something sweet to pop on the saucer with a takeaway order, a little extra that makes regulars smile. A small bag of gummy bears does that job without fuss. The barista slides it across with the flat white, the customer pockets it for later, and by mid-afternoon at their desk it's the cheery pick-me-up they didn't know they needed.
Most styles can be printed in full colour, and some can be finished with a sticker for custom gummy bears. Pair promotional gummy bears with cello bags of other lollies for a mixed bowl.
Good to Know
What's the difference between cello bags and snack packs?
Cello bags are clear cellophane, so the gummy bears show through, while snack packs are opaque bags covered in full colour. Snack packs come in tall and wide shapes that stand up neatly on a counter.
Are branded gummy bears a good choice for a shop or reception counter?
Branded gummy bears in tall and wide snack packs stand up neatly on a reception counter and show full colour on the bag. Clear cello bags suit a mixed lolly bowl, letting the reds, greens and yellows show through.
Why are some gummy bears chipped?
Gummies are soft and rub together during packing and transport, so slight chipping or the odd broken bear is accepted as normal. It's purely cosmetic and doesn't change the taste or chewy texture.
How do you store gummy bears so they stay soft and separate?
Store them in a cool, dry spot at 22 degrees Celsius or below. Above that, the bears soften and clump together, so keep cartons away from sunny windows, ovens and warm storerooms.
