Sour and Sweet Candy Here to Stay

Despite uncomfortable side effects like a burnt tongue, people continue to enjoy all kinds of acidic sour candies.  Sour Patch Kids, one of the most popular sour candies on the market, are described in advertisements as “Sour. Sweet. Gone.”  This suggests that people enjoy them for their transition from sour acidity into tamely sweet gummy candies.  I truly enjoy these candies.

Top Selling Mints and Hard candy

Recent studies have indicated that Tic Tacs are the top selling mint in the US.  Sales over a rolling year ending in Jan 2010 were almost $68 million dollars.  Comparatively Altoids or Altoids Mints were a close runner up with sales of just over $48 million dollars.  Very close and in third place were Ice Breakers coming in at close to $48 million dollars but a little shy of second place Altoids or Altoids Mints.  Listerine Pocket Paks sales were close to $27 million and Breathsavers came in fifth place at just under $20 million dollars.
The total reported sales of the five brands were approximately $210 million dollars.  This is a sample of data but gives you an idea of the leaders in the candy mint or breath freshener market.  I have been a avid Tic Tac consumer but certainly enjoy Altoids.  I particularly like the tin the Altoid Mints come in.  They are a classy accessory mint.
