The UK’s leading confectionery wholesaler Hancocks has revealed the top ten best-selling products from their popular Crazy Candy Factory range.
Crazy Candy Factory offers an unrivalled selection of eye-catching and fun kids novelty treats, including something for every sweet tooth.
The objective behind Crazy Candy Factory is to include the play element within kids confectionery, with most of their products either coming with a toy or having a novelty element.
The Funny Money edible wafer paper is a nostalgic treat which is still popular among kids, making it the number one best-selling product from the range. With an RRP of just £0.85, it’s a perfect pocket money option retailers can add to their confectionery range.
The classic Flying Saucers Bag RRP £1.25 comes in second place, proving retro sweets are still as popular as ever.
The Jelly Bean Machine RRP £1.29 is third on the list. It’s a popular novelty treat which contains assorted fruit flavour jelly beans that have to be released from the machine before eaten.
Next up are the Mini Gum Ball Machines RRP £1.29, each machine containing a selection of 12 bubblegums.
Also among the top five is the Big Dipper RRP £1.29 lollipop which comes with a fruit flavour sour sherbet. There are three delicious flavour combinations to choose from – blue raspberry & watermelon, strawberry & blue razz and watermelon & strawberry.
Perfect for summer is the Ice Cream Dip RRP £1.09 which is an ice cream shaped hard candy lollipop that comes with sherbet sugar sprinkles.
Another popular lollipop product is the Paint Splash Lollipop & Sherbet Dip RRP £1.29. Each paint pot is filled with sweet sour sherbet, paired with a dipping lollipop paint brush, with flavours including orange & strawberry, blue raspberry & green apple and cherry & cola.
Also making the top ten best-sellers are the Tongue Painters share bags, Fruit Pops candy liquids and the Sweet Soaker water pistol filled with fruity sweets.
Hannah Rodenby, Brand Manager at Hancocks said: “Crazy Candy Factory is one of our most popular brands, especially among young customers who love the play element in novelty treats.
“The range includes perfect pocket money treats for kids and their fun, exciting packaging is what makes them even more enticing.
“It’s interesting to see that nostalgic treats such as edible money and flying saucers are the most popular lines from the range, showing that there is still plenty of demand for retro sweets.
“Other best-selling products include fun novelty treats that not only come with candy but with a toy as well – such as the Paint Splash dippers, Sweet Soaker water pistol and Jelly Bean machine.
“To make the most of kids’ confectionery in stores, we recommend retailers to place the products near tills and remember that kids’ eye level is lower so they are more likely to notice products on bottom shelves.”
