Product Description

About the Brand

Haribo, founded in 1920 in Bonn, Germany by Hans Riegel, is one of the most prominent manufacturers of sweets (namely fruit gums, licorice, and foam) in the world. The company name is an acronym for "Hans Riegel, Bonn" and stands as a reminder of Haribo's continuing loyalty to early traditions. After Hans Riegel died during World War II, his son, also named Hans Riegel, took over the factory and expanded its operations, taking over many local confectionery manufacturers in countries all over the world. Currently, Haribo operates five factories in Germany and 13 throughout the rest of Europe. The company also has sales offices in almost every country in Europe as well as in the Unites States. Haribo's German catch phrase is "Haribo macht kinder froh / und Erwachsene ebenso," which translates as "Kids and grown-ups love it so / the happy world of Haribo."

Product Description

Haribo Gold-Bears are a mixed delight of white/pineapple, green/strawberry, yellow/lemon, orange/orange, and red/raspberry gummy bears.

This candy is AWESOME... read my review I posted on the 5LB bag page. And while you are at it... buy the 5# bag ... they are way cheaper. This 12 pack ends up being only 3.75 LBS and costs $12.50 and the 5LB bag is only $13.00 as of this review.

5.0 out of 5 stars Haribo Gummi Bears BURSTING with FLAVOR!, February 27, 2008

First of all I would like to say that HANDS DOWN, Haribo makes the best Gummi Candies. It's true. If you've ever tried another brand, you'd know and once you try Haribo, you'd never go back!

These Haribo Gummi Candy Gold-Bears are just Bursting with Flavor! They are soft and chewy. (But not so soft that they are sticky and stick to your teeth)! I've loved these since I was young and now my son loves them too. They come in about six different flavors and each one is yummy! You also get a good mix of colors and flavors. They're a great snack and most people can eat them because they're not a "chocolate-type candy" where you'd have to worry about allergies.

They arrived at my home fresh and delicious. Everyone that's stopped by has had the temptation to eat some. But, I do recommend the five pound bag over the pack of twelve. You get approximately a pound and a half more in the five pound bag for about .50 more!

Speaking of the Five Pound Bag, the price is a true VALUE! These cost so much at the market or candy store at the mall per pound! And these are the same exact bears, but you don't have to worry if everyone has touched them or how long they've been out in the open before you came along to scoop them up in your bag! That's a big plus for me!

I definitely recommend these gummi bears, they are a sweet and delicious treat and the VALUE is phenomenal! I will definitely be ordering more and different kinds. We all have our favorites!

i enjoy my sweets, and the haribo gummi gold bears are no exception. while many gummy bears are much too sweet and taste incredibly artificial, haribo gummi gold bears are the perfect little dessert or snack at any point during the day, as they are light, and they taste more natural than other gummy bears.
