DESCRIPTION
Gummy eggs are probably the flattest gummies around, seeing how they’re shaped like friend eggs. The shape leads to the texture and the texture, at least of the “whites” is soft – softer than your average gummy bear, for example, and pliable, so it folds in half for easy eating. It also holds up should you choose to eat it bite-by-bite saving the “yolk” for last. As for the flavor? Let’s say vanilla? Peach? So many opinions. The eggs have lots of practical joke potential: some grown-up customers have served gummy eggs instead of the real thing to their kids on the morning of April 1st. Trust me – the kids loved it!

Gummy Candy… A Sore Throat Remedy?!
Can you believe your favorite candy had its origins as a medicine? Gummy candies began with Turkish delight, made in the Arabic apothecaries as a confection and medicine for sore throats in 900 C.E. In the 1700s, a Turkish sultan fell in love with the sweet – hence the name – and word traveled around the world.
The Birth of “Gummi” Candies
Across the sea, a German candy-maker created delight-based little bears called “rubber candy.” The German word for “rubber” is – yes! – “gummy.” Plenty of other candy-makers jumped in, making their own version of gummy candies – including fun shapes like the gummy egg! The first modern vegan gummy candy was made in Sweden in the 1970s – Swedish Fish! Also in that decade, the humble jelly bean became the Jelly Belly, made by David Klein.
