Celebrating Innovation at the Candy & Snack Expo

These awards highlight the innovations that are shaping the future of the industry.

Our Award-Winning Products: Amos Peelerz

We are incredibly proud of our award-winning products, Amos Peelerz – Gummy Banana and Gummy Mango. These gummies are not only delicious but also creatively designed to resemble real fruit peels.
