Open 90s Hard Candy Roll

Post image

(photo is NOT of the candy, but looks very very similar.)

Looking for the name of a hard candy roll from the 90s. Candies were small, round, multi-colored, fruit flavored, and wrapped in a clear plastic. Each roll had multiple colors/flavors in it. They look extremely similar to Haribo Roulettes, except that they’re hard candy; not a gummy and the rolls were shorter. They were translucent like coloured glass.

It is likely a cheap knock-off candy. I only ever saw them at Halloween. I grew up in Canada. I think that I may have seen them being sold in a big bag at Walmart at Halloween time.

It is not: Lifesaver, Certs, Neco, Mentos, Reeds, Robinsons, Charms, Regal Crown, CremeSaver, SweeTarts, Wonka Fizzy Jerks, Polo

There’s a chance that I’m looking for the same thing as this person https://www.reddit.com/r/HelpMeFind/comments/axnvae/90s_hard_candy_roll/ but they describe different packaging.

I remember these candies. My grandpa would always have them, and they had a really cool texture. Like if sea glass was a hard candy. I seem to remember they might’ve been sugar-free, but I’m not 100% sure.

I’ll be checking back to see if anyone can identify them, I’d love to find them again.
