Our story
Sour candy, the way you remember it.
Sour Drops started with one simple mission: bring back the bold, tart, tangy flavors we grew up loving, and do it better.
Every batch is made right here in the USA in traditional copper kettles, in small batches, so each piece gets the attention it deserves.
What we stand for
No synthetic dyes, ever. Our colors come from turmeric, spirulina, paprika and vegetable juice.
Cooked the old-school way in copper kettles, a small batch at a time.
Every batch is made in our own kitchen, start to finish.
A small, family-run business making candy we actually love to eat.
How a batch is made
Every tin starts in our own kitchen.
-
Cooked in copper kettles
1Each batch starts in a copper kettle in our own kitchen.
-
Pulled by hand
2The warm candy is stretched and folded by hand.
-
Shaped into drops
3Then it gets pressed into drops while still warm.
-
Into the tin
4Finally they get packed into our tins and sent your way.
Where the color comes from
Tap a flavor to see what gives it its color.
We're never done experimenting.
From our signature Green Apple and fan-favorite Tangerine to more adventurous flavors like Lychee and Pineapple, we're always cooking up something new.
That's how Fusions started: two flavors in every drop, like Tart Raspberry meets Tropical Mango, with more on the way. Same copper kettle, same dye-free recipe, twice the flavor in one piece.
We're not just preserving the past. We're building the future of sour candy, one flavor at a time.
