A fan-favorite candy is getting the bubble gum treatment. The iconic Hubba Bubba bubble gum brand just launched their first new offering to their brand since 1988, the new Hubba Bubba Mini Gum and it’s coming in the beloved Skittles original flavors. According to the brand, this new offering gives fans a new candy-like taste to enjoy while staying true to the beloved Hubba Bubba brand’s “bubble-blowing core”.
The new Skittles flavored Hubba Bubba Mini Gum features a mix of those iconic Original Skittles flavors, including lemon, strawberry, grape, orange, and lime. And while the gum has the taste of Skittles, it is still Hubba Bubba, which means that consumers can enjoy blowing bubbles big and small — as well as mix and match their flavor combinations.
