JOLLY RANCHER ROPES

It is always exciting to have a look at what is coming onto the market in the sweet arena in America and today we look at a new series of sweets that were released only last month.

In September 2024 it was announced that the candy brand Jolly Rancher was introducing a new sweet to their collection.

Jolly Rancher Ropes turns the candy favourites into a fruity, chewy sticks. Each of the sticks have an inner filling as well. There are a variety of flavours available including green apple and watermelon and blue raspberry and cherry.

They could be purchased in bags of 6 and 10 ounces and could be purchased in US grocery stores.

There are a lot of mixed reviews online about this product – some are positive and some are negative stating that the outside part of the rope is tasteless.
