Looking for Haribo Raspberries Gummi Candy (GTA)

Hello All,

These gummies are my wife's favorite, and I can't see to find them anywhere in-store around the GTA. I see a lot of online store sell them, but have a high free shipping minimum spend.

Has anyone ever seen these anywhere in store?

Tried all major grocery stores.

Never seen these. Obviously they had all the other types of Haribo. So maybe it's store specific?

I have not tried Starsky tho. Maybe I'll go there next (Dundas)

If you're not hung up on the Haribo brand, try looking for places that sell Squish Candies still. They have a pretty decent version.

Possibly Yummy Market. Their google photos claim close to 50 varieties of Haribo gummies from their Maple location

Haribo is really stiff & chewy as compared to North American brands. Not the same.

Yeah, I noticed that about the Gummy Bears and Tangfastics (mentioned repeatedly on Killing Eve, made me try them lol). I wasn't sure if all their candy is like that. I find Haribo stuff edible but definitely not my favorite to eat.

It is all really stiff. That is what makes it special ;) Haribo invented the gummy bear (the bear is an icon of Berlin) & is the version I grew up with. I find the loosely rubbery North American ones unpleasant (though a lot easier on the jaw).

There is a German brand called Efruiti that is not quite as chewy but still stiffer than North American stuff that makes real fruit gummies that put Dare to shame. They are hard to find but London Drugs carries them https://www.londondrugs.com/search/?q=e ... ng=default They are excellent. Really nice flavour & good chew.

Saw them in a candy store in Niagara-on-the-Lake called Olde Tyme Candy Shoppe. Maybe a bit too far.

In Oakville or Burlington, you would look in Denningers (German deli with lots of German sweets).

I am surprised no one has mentioned Waterbridge "Red and Black Berries Wine Gums", or their "Jelly Babies" here. Oh man, my mouth is watering just remembering them.

Another "hard to find" since Walmart dropped them. I think London Drugs has them though. They have a great candy shop. They do not have the Haribo berries though.

Edelweiss Imports seems to have the largest variety of Haribo candies. Currently offering free shipping in Canada for $250min. order.

Type Haribo and the Berries show up about halfway down the results page.

Was in Dennigers' flagship store in Burlington Centre and while there were 10 kinds of Haribo candy peg bags, none were your sought-after berries. The display is part of a "wall" of wire racks near checkout maze leading to exterior store doors to the Prospect St. side parking lot.

(Strangely, for the first time in 3 years, I saw a marked down cart of clearance items and finally saw two kinds of hemp seed bars for sale. Near the mobile cashier by the hot food line.)

Random find on website (I decided to see if store had its own site and what sweet goodies are on it), as this retailer happens to be selling Halloween cereals at the Bay's website. However, your wife's fave candies are listed! Toronto ON! Let me know how many bags you get! Smiling Face With Open Mouth

Under the NEW items tab, I found a Lifesavers Wild Berries Gummies candy bag too. Maybe get one of those and try them? https://www.kandykrazed.com/collections ... ld-berries

(gee, $100 would not seem enough if I were to set foot in the store and buy my candy memories!)
