Overview

Juicy Drop line of candies consist of six candy products: Juicy Drop Pop, Juicy Drop Gum, Juicy Drop Gummies, Juicy Drop Taffy, Juicy Drop Gummy Dip 'N Stix, and juicy drop re-mix. [2]

Juicy Drop Gum was introduced to the Juicy Drop line in 2017 with the flavours Knock-Out Punch, Blue Rebel, Apple Attack, and Watermelon Blast. [3] One of the main goals with Juicy Drop Gum was to ensure the gum would have long-lasting flavour, which is what the accompanying sour gel booster is for. [4]

In 2020, the Strawberry Kiwi flavour joined the Juicy Drop Gummies line of products, joining the existing Wild Cherry Berry, Knock-Out Punch, Blue Rebel, and Watermelon Blast Flavours. [5] Like other Juicy Drop Gummies products, this new flavour comes with a sour gel applicator to enhance the flavour. [6]

Its product line is manufactured by Bazooka Candy Brands (BCB). In October 2023, BCB and its portfolio of brands were acquired by Apax Partners. [7]
