Maybe you've heard friends talking about it, seen it in the news, spotted those colorful BUBS skulls in stores (although the U.S. versions are actually different from the originals made in Sweden), or watched someone's reaction to their first bite online.
What took off on TikTok has become something much bigger. America is discovering what Swedes have loved for generations, including BUBS, one of Sweden's most popular candy brands.
But here's the thing: BUBS isn't just another bag of gummies with a different name.
Swedish candy is an entirely different experience. Think incredibly bold fruit flavors, a mouthwatering sour kick, and textures unlike anything most Americans grew up with. BUBS is a perfect example, with its signature chewy and foamy texture. Even the ingredients can be a pleasant surprise.

Here are six reasons BUBS is making America fall in love with Swedish candy.
