Assorted Other Candy Wholesale & Bulk

The best assorted shelf isn’t the one with the most obvious flavors. It’s the one where a customer finds something they haven’t seen before. That’s what we tried to do with this group. It’s bulk and bagged, with bars and boxes, from six countries. Greece and Italy are in it, and so are the USA and Morocco. Israel and Holland too. Cases weigh 0.66 lb to 2.2 lb a unit. The brands are Gustaf’s and Italgum, then Jannis and Koppers. Sconza, Achva and Fantis fill in the rest.

Gustaf’s comes first with its Assorted Soft Punch Chews in bulk. They’re soft fruit chews in a mixed bag, and they go in a bin or on a candy buffet. They also work on a pick-and-mix stand. Soft chews have a way of pleasing everybody. Since it’s a mix, a customer gets variety in one scoop. They’ll probably take a bit more.

The Gustaf Original Dutch Tum Tum Mix Assorted Fruit Candy comes from Holland. A Tum Tum mix is an old Dutch combination pack with a few shapes and textures and fruit flavors. Dutch candy isn’t like German licorice or Belgian chocolate, so a Dutch fruit assortment fills a real gap on a European shelf. Scandinavian and Dutch expats will hunt for it. Other shoppers pick it up because it looks interesting.

Italy gives us two Italgum items in a very different format. Italgum Ginevroni Colorful Sugar Tablets (Large) and Italgum Ginevrine Colorful Sugar Tablets (Small) are old-fashioned European sugar tablets. They’re small and hard and pressed from sugar, in bright colors with a mild fruit and floral taste. People who grew up in Europe get nostalgic about them. Americans who haven’t seen them before find them a novelty. The colors look great in a bin or at a pick-and-mix station.

From Denmark there’s the Assorted Fruit Wheels Gummi in bulk. They’re fruit gummi wheels in a mixed bag. Everybody knows gummi candy, and the wheel shape is different enough that it won’t blur into the bears and worms down the aisle.

Greece sends two. Jannis Mini Mixed Nut Crunch Bars are a snack-sized sesame and nut treat. They add something sweet and savory beside the fruit candy. The Fantis Greek Fruit Hard Candies Mix comes in bulk. It’s a traditional hard candy in assorted fruit flavors, made in Greece. Greek-American shoppers will know it. So will anyone who wants Mediterranean imports beyond the usual chocolate and licorice.

The USA contributes Koppers and Sconza. Koppers Mini Malt Ball Mix is a malted milk ball in a small size and an assorted look, which suits a candy buffet or a grab-and-go display. The small size makes it easy to portion for a candy bar setup. Sconza Premium Assorted Polished Jordan Almonds are the old wedding candy, smooth and sugar-coated in pastel colors. Weddings and events call for them, and so do spring and Easter. Bagged wholesale makes them easy to source.

Israel is the Achva Sesame Halva Mixed Snack Box in Vanilla and Marble, plus Walnut. It’s a gift-style halva box, and it’s different from the individual mini snack bags you can find elsewhere. A box looks right in gift retail or a specialty food display. Three varieties let a customer taste around. The walnut one will appeal to Middle Eastern food shoppers, and the marble looks striking on a shelf.

If you buy bulk candy to build an international section, this group covers more ground than any single-country shelf. You get hard candy from Fantis and Italgum. Gustaf’s gives you soft chews and there are gummies too. Koppers adds malt balls and Sconza brings Jordan almonds. Jannis has nut crunch bars and Achva has halva. A variety of textures and food traditions can come in one wholesale order.

Label the origins. A shelf tag that says Greek Fruit Candy or Dutch Tum Tum Mix helps two kinds of people. Someone with a heritage connection feels welcome to buy. Someone who doesn’t recognize the item sees authentic import and gives it a go. The same goes for Italian Sugar Tablets and Israeli Sesame Halva. A short line saying what it is, like Traditional Dutch fruit candy mix, also beats an unlabeled bin.

Gift retailers will like the Achva halva box, since it’s a finished gift and nobody has to assemble anything. The Sconza Jordan almonds in their bag can fill favor bags or Easter baskets. Jannis mini nut bars and the Italgum color tablets are good near the checkout. Gustaf’s punch chews fit there too, in a specialty food shop or an import grocery.

Candy buffet operators and caterers will go straight to the bulk items. That means Gustaf’s chews and Koppers malt balls. Fantis fruit hard candies and Gummi Fruit Wheels are in that group too. Bulk lets you portion by weight, which keeps a candy bar station under control. A mix of origins and formats gives event planners the look and flavors they want.

Storage is ordinary. Hard candies hold up best. Gummies and soft chews don’t like humidity, so keep those cool and dry. The Achva halva box should stay cool and away from damp so the texture doesn’t change. There’s no minimum order. Approved accounts get account pricing. We ship within the US.
