Haven’t tried freeze-dried candy yet? Dash on over to Five Below where you can score Sow Good Freeze Dried Candy for just $5! Note that the price may vary in stores. Plus, you can choose between rainbow bites (made from Skittles) or crunchy worms (aka sour gummy worms)!

It all began as a viral Tik-Tok video…Freeze-dried candy is created by a process called sublimation. This process removes all of the water content from the candy, transforming its texture and intensifying its flavors. It also gives the candy a 25-year shelf life!

Considered a novel and exotic treat by candy fans, more and more freeze-dried versions of popular candies are hitting the market! Freeze-dried candies are great on their own, but are also a crunchy addition to ice cream sundaes.

Choose from these options…

These rainbow bites have had 99% of their moisture removed, leaving behind a crunchy treat exploding with flavor! They’re light and airy and make the perfect snack when you’re craving something sweet.

These sour gummy worms have an unexpectedly lightweight and airy texture. They’re packed with more flavor and have expanded in size due to the freeze-drying process, so you won’t need as many to satisfy your craving!

Unsure what to expect? Take it from a few of our team members!

I was NOT expecting to like these– I don’t even like Skittles to begin with! 😆 But I promise you these are better. I also wasn’t looking forward to the freeze-dried texture, but it had an excellent crunch that doesn’t feel weird or stick to your teeth. In fact, 3/3 of my kiddos said they prefer these over regular Skittles. Definitely, a fun treat that’s worth a try for your next movie night! – Hip Sidekick, Chelsey


Wow! They taste just like Skittles and are light, crispy, and airy. The consistency is in between Kettle Chips and Pirate’s Booty, but it tastes just like Skittles! I like these, definitely worth a try! – Hip Sidekick, Cam
