Mars Wrigley is adding heat to its lineup with the debut of Skittles Gummies Fuego! Announced on August 18, 2025, these gummies offer fans something sweet & spicy. Flavors include mango, watermelon, strawberry, raspberry, and lemon, each coated with a secret hot seasoning. 

According to the official press release, the product first appeared exclusively on the brand’s official TikTok Shop in limited quantities before beginning a small retail rollout this fall, with a full nationwide release planned for January 2026. We can’t wait.  

Skittles Gummies Fuego mark the brand’s next big move, following the successful launch of Skittles POP’d Freeze Dried Candy earlier this year, in Original and Sour varieties; and yes, we carry both options here in our store! If you haven’t tried them yet, we highly recommend you do. 

Media outlets also note that the timing is no coincidence, as “swicy” (sweet & spicy) flavors are rising in popularity across the candy aisle. Early reviewers describe the balance of sweet fruit and chili-lime spice as a successful pairing that’ll be near impossible to compete with.

Here at Candy Retailer, we have a forever-growing category of Skittles candy, so we’ll update as soon as these new Fuego Gummies arrive in our store. The limited rollout is underway, with the national launch set for early next year, but maybe we’ll get lucky and see them sooner! Stay tuned…
