Where it comes from

Gummy worms were introduced by Trolli in Germany in 1981, deliberately designed to be slightly disgusting because that was what children responded to. They became one of the most successful sweet shapes ever made, and the sour coated version followed in the 1990s.

What it's made of

Two colours of gum deposited into a long mould, set with gelatine, dried and then tumbled in sugar with citric, malic and lactic acids.
