Does Your Gummy Have A Peel

The latest trend in gummy candy seems to be the idea that you can peel them. The concept is that each gummy candy is made with two different textures of gummy. The outside is a more chewy, durable gummy, while the inside is a soft a squishy gummy. Each of these gummies (so far) are shaped like different fruit that one might peel, like grapes or bananas. As a concept I'm a huge fan of this trend, it's not only clever, but thematically correct (so far). The actual peeling of these candies have proven to be a bit more challenging than I originally expected, but that could improve as technology gets better. The thing I'm looking forward to is the first creative gummy candy company that takes this trend and moves it out of peeling fruit. I feel like there's great promise for a really creepy Halloween candy here.
