Face Twisters debuts Extreme Sour Pectin Gummies
The candy does not use traditional gelatin, reportedly creating a softer, cleaner bite.

Schuster Products LLC has announced the latest innovation under its Face Twisters brand, introducing Extreme Sour Gummies designed to meet evolving consumer demand for bold flavors and differentiated textures, it says.
Originally launched 28 years ago, Face Twisters has built a strong reputation in the sour candy segment, the company adds. The newest addition builds on that legacy with a dynamic "start sour, end sweet" flavor profile that delivers a layered sensory experience increasingly sought after by today’s consumers, Schuster Products notes.
In addition to flavor, according to the company, the product stands out through its use of pectin rather than traditional gelatin. This formulation reportedly creates a softer, cleaner bite that aligns with growing consumer interest in novel textures within the gummy category.
"With nearly two-thirds of consumers purchasing gummies, the opportunity lies in delivering something different. This product combines intensity, texture, and a more modern ingredient profile to help retailers capture attention in a crowded set," notes Steve Schuster, cofounder of Schuster Products LLC.
The gummies are free from artificial colors, gelatin, or gluten, and they have a vegan formulation.
As consumers increasingly gravitate toward plant-based and clean-label options, the new Face Twisters gummies provide retailers and distributors with a compelling offering in the high-growth non-chocolate candy segment, the brand says.
The product is available for wholesale distribution across grocery, convenience, specialty retail, and e-commerce channels.
