About This Candy
S-Märke (the S-Brand) by Candy People is one of Sweden's most recognized sour candy lines. Surt Skum (Sour Foam) combines a fizzy, sour coating with a light foam center that dissolves on your tongue in a burst of citrus flavor. The sour level is serious — this isn't a timid sour candy. S-Märke has been a mainstay of Swedish candy counters for decades and is now gaining major traction in the US export market as an alternative to BUBS for sour candy lovers.
