A Sweet Glow-Up: Swedish Fish and Sour Patch Kids Light Up the Candy Scene!
Mar 13th 2025
Hey, candy lovers! Buckle up because the candy aisle just got a whole lot brighter—literally! Blair Candy is thrilled to introduce two dazzling new treats that are taking "glow-up" to a whole new level: Swedish Fish Glow Ups and Sour Patch Kids Glow Ups. These aren’t just your average gummies—they’re the first-ever candies that glow under a black light, thanks to some clever candy magic. Ready to dive into the deliciously radiant details? Let’s get glowing!
What’s the Buzz About?
Picture this: you’re at a party, the lights dim, and someone flips on a black light. Suddenly, your candy stash starts glowing like it’s ready to star in its own sci-fi movie. That’s the vibe with Swedish Fish Glow Ups and Sour Patch Kids Glow Ups! Both of these treats come sprinkled with edible confetti pieces made from turmeric extract, which gives them their fluorescent flair. Don’t worry, though—this isn’t some wacky flavor experiment gone wrong. The turmeric extract is completely flavorless, so you’re still getting that classic candy taste you know and love, just with an extra dose of fun.
Swedish Fish Glow Ups: A Chewy, Glowing Adventure
Let’s start with the Swedish Fish Glow Ups. These mini fish-shaped gummies are swimming into the spotlight with a strawberry-watermelon flavor that’s as delightful as ever. Swedish Fish have always been a fan favorite for their soft, chewy texture and that signature fruity kick, but now they’re stepping up their game. The edible confetti doesn’t just make them glow—it adds a playful twist that’s perfect for late-night snack sessions, movie marathons, or even a glow-in-the-dark Easter egg hunt (yes, we’re already dreaming up ideas!).
Under a black light, these little fish light up like neon treasures from the deep sea. The best part? The turmeric-powered glow doesn’t mess with the strawberry-watermelon goodness. It’s still the same Swedish Fish you’d happily munch by the handful—just with a dazzling upgrade.
Sour Patch Kids Glow Ups: Sour, Sweet, and Spooky
Next up, the Sour Patch Kids Glow Ups are here to bring their mischievous charm to the glow party. These gummies keep the classic sour-then-sweet vibe that makes Sour Patch Kids a legend, but they’re rocking the same strawberry-watermelon flavor as their Swedish Fish cousins. Sprinkled with that turmeric-infused edible confetti, they transform into glowing pranksters under a black light. Imagine popping one in your mouth while it’s shining bright—talk about a multi-sensory snack experience!
Whether you’re hosting a glow-in-the-dark game night or just want to impress your friends with some next-level candy, these Sour Patch Kids are a must-try. The sour coating gives way to that sweet, fruity core, and the glow just makes it all the more fun. Available in a 3.08oz bag at Blair Candy, they’re the perfect size to stash in your bag for a glowing pick-me-up whenever the mood strikes.
The Science Behind the Shine
Okay, let’s get a little nerdy for a sec—how does this glow thing even work? The secret lies in the turmeric extract, a natural ingredient that’s been hiding a superpower all along. Turmeric, that golden spice you might know from curry or fancy lattes, has a compound that fluoresces under ultraviolet light (aka a black light). The candy wizards at Mondelēz International (the folks behind both Swedish Fish and Sour Patch Kids) figured out how to extract that glowy goodness, mix it into edible confetti, and sprinkle it onto these gummies. The result? A treat that’s as safe as it is spectacular, with no weird aftertaste—just pure candy joy.
At Blair Candy, we’re all about bringing you the latest and greatest in the candy world, and these Glow Ups are no exception. Both the Swedish Fish and Sour Patch Kids versions come in handy 3.08oz bags, making them easy to toss in your cart alongside your other favorites. Pair them with a black light (you can snag one cheap online or at a party store), and you’ve got an instant recipe for fun. Plus, with our fast shipping, you’ll be glowing in no time.
Whether you’re a Swedish Fish stan or a Sour Patch Kids superfan, these glowing goodies are calling your name. Grab a bag (or two!), and let your candy game shine bright. Who knew snacking could be this illuminating? Happy munching, glow-getters!
