In a national launch across the UK, Rowntree’s presents two classics re-imagined, entering its iconic Jelly Tots and Fruit Pastilles brands into the soft sweets space. The all new Squidgers range is a fun, fruity shake up of Rowntree’s household favourites.

The Fruit Pastilles Squidgers comes in five classic flavours, blackcurrant, lemon, lime, orange, and strawberry. The Jelly Tots Squidgers will be a tasty mix of raspberry, apple, pineapple and orange flavours.
