Wonka Brand Returns With New Gummies Ahead Of Film's Release

There's a brand new candy being released alongside the new Willy Wonka film, as you can pick up Wonka Magic Hat Gummies soon.


Ferrera has announced this morning they are bringing back the Willy Wonka brand for a special set of gummies and a contest for the film's release. As you can see from the packet image below, we're getting Wonka Magic Hat Gummies, a nod to the character's fashion sense, while also providing a chance to have some fun-tasting gummies as a snack. They look a lot like Gushers, but with more of a gel inside than a liquid. This is a limited-edition candy that will only be around for a short time, but it comes in four fruity flavors as you're getting Strawberry Watermelon, Raspberry Grape, Orange Strawberry, and Magic Berries. That fourth one is only in the Hat gummi, and has a different surprise flavor in each one. Since Wonka isn't out until December 1st, it means we'll at least have these for a few months. We have a quote from the company about the new brand, as well as info on the contest they're holding with it below.
