Frequently Asked Questions

About BUBS Candy

Q: What is BUBS Swedish candy?

A: BUBS is a Swedish confectionery brand founded in 1992 by the Lindström family. Known for playful designs — candy skulls, sour ovals, foam hearts — and bold flavor combinations that blend sour, sweet, and sometimes salty in unexpected ways. BUBS has exploded on TikTok and Instagram with billions of views under #SwedishCandy.

Q: Is BUBS candy vegan?

A: Yes. BUBS candies are vegan-friendly, gluten-free, and halal. They’re made without gelatin, palm oil, or artificial dyes using only plant-based ingredients. This makes BUBS one of the most inclusive candy brands on the market, suitable for a wide range of dietary preferences.

Q: What makes BUBS candy different from American gummies?

A: BUBS uses a cornstarch-based foaming technique that creates a softer, airier texture than gelatin-based American gummies. European ingredient standards mean fewer artificial additives. The result is a chewier, more complex flavor experience that releases different taste notes as you chew — not just a one-note sugar rush.

Q: What flavors does BUBS come in?

A: BUBS offers dozens of flavors across sweet, sour, and salty categories. Popular options include BUBS Tutti Frutti Sour Rhombus

, Cool Cola Skulls, Bubs Strawberry Pomegranate Oval, and BUBS Fruity Pear. The selection at Candycopia rotates as new varieties arrive from Sweden.

Q: Why is BUBS candy so popular on TikTok?

A: The unique cornstarch texture creates satisfying ASMR sounds when chewed — content creators discovered that BUBS produced better audio than traditional gummies. The jewel-like colors and distinctive skull shapes also photograph and film well. The virality was entirely organic, driven by genuine consumer enthusiasm rather than corporate marketing campaigns.

Swedish Candy Culture

Q: What is lördagsgodis (Saturday candy)?

A: Lördagsgodis is Sweden’s tradition of saving candy for Saturday. It started in the 1950s after government health campaigns linked daily sugar to dental problems. Swedish families designated Saturday as the one day for sweets. The tradition stuck — and today it’s a weekly ritual that emphasizes quality and anticipation over mindless snacking.

Q: How is Swedish candy regulated differently?

A: European Union food regulations restrict many artificial colors, flavors, and preservatives that are permitted in the United States. Swedish candy makers use natural colorants, plant-based gelling agents, and fewer synthetic additives. This is one reason imported Swedish candy often tastes cleaner and more nuanced than mass-produced American alternatives.

Q: What other Swedish candy brands does Candycopia carry?

A: Beyond BUBS, the Swedish collection includes Malaco, Haribo’s Swedish lines, and other Nordic brands. Varieties range from salty licorice and wine gums to chocolate-covered favorites and marshmallow-gummy hybrids. The inventory rotates as new imports arrive.

Q: Is BUBS candy available at the Oak Park store?

A: Yes. The Oak Park, IL store at 717 Lake Street or 116 N York St, Elmhurst, IL features Chicago’s first Swedish candy bar with over 50 BUBS and Swedish varieties. Staff can guide customers through the collection and recommend favorites.

Shopping BUBS & Swedish Candy at Candycopia

Q: How many BUBS and Swedish candy varieties does Candycopia carry?

A: Over 50 BUBS and Swedish candy varieties are available at the Oak Park and Elmhurst store and online. The selection includes individual bags, pre-made sweet and sour mixes, the BUBS + Swedish Tackle Box with 18 compartments, and build-your-own mix options at the pick-and-mix bar.

Q: What is the Swedish pick-and-mix candy bar?

A: Candycopia opened Chicago’s first dedicated Swedish pick-and-mix bar. Over 50 varieties of premium BUBS and Swedish candies. Customers scoop their favorites into bags to create a personalized Saturday candy (lördagsgodis) mix — just like in Swedish candy shops.

Q: What is the BUBS Swedish Tackle Box?

A: A 2-pound sampler with 18 compartments packed with sweet and sour BUBS gummies, marshmallow-gummy hybrids, and Swedish bottles. It’s a best-selling gift item at Candycopia and a top-rated Christmas and birthday present. Customers describe it as “the best tackle box that isn’t for fishing.”

Q: Can I build my own BUBS and Swedish candy mix?

A: The custom mix builder lets you choose from dozens of BUBS and Swedish gummy varieties online. In-store, the pick-and-mix bar lets you scoop directly from candy bins.. Both options are packaged fresh to order in half-pound or one-pound bags.

Q: Does Candycopia sell BUBS candy mixes?

A: Two pre-made BUBS mixes are available: the Sweet Mix (half-pound bag of assorted sweet Swedish gummies) and the Sour Mix (half-pound bag of sour BUBS including iconic skull shapes). Both are popular introductions for customers trying Swedish candy for the first time.

Ordering & Shipping

Q: Does BUBS & Swedish candy ship free?

A: Orders over $75 ship free within the contiguous United States. Most orders leave the Oak Park warehouse within one to three business days. BUBS candy ships year-round without temperature concerns since it’s a non-chocolate product.

Q: Is BUBS candy fresh when it arrives?

A: Candycopia imports BUBS directly and stores inventory in climate-controlled conditions. Products are inspected before shipping. Customer reviews consistently mention freshness — one reviewer described their BUBS Tutti Frutti as arriving “super fresh, soft and melted in my mouth practically.”

Q: Can I order BUBS in bulk for events?

A: Bulk ordering is available for parties, events, and corporate gifting. The BUBS + Swedish Tackle Box is a popular party favor. Custom bulk quotes are available by contacting the team at hello@candycopia.com. Candy cart rentals with Swedish candy are also available for private events in the Chicago area.

Q: Does Candycopia ship BUBS outside the U.S.?

A: Currently, Candycopia ships within the United States only. Customers outside the U.S. can sign up for the email list for updates on international shipping availability.
