Satellite Wafers (Sour): A Nostalgic Twist on a Classic Candy

If you’re an adventurous candy lover in Edmonton, you already know that YEG Exotic is the place to discover treats that are bold, unique, and often hard to find anywhere else. From exotic sodas to nostalgic sweets, our shelves are packed with flavours from around the world. One candy that perfectly embodies this philosophy is the Satellite Wafers (Sour)—a retro favourite reinvented with a tangy twist.


What Are Satellite Wafers?

Also known as flying saucer candy, Satellite Wafers have been delighting sweet tooths for decades. Each candy features a delicate, pastel-coloured wafer shell that hides a surprise inside: tiny, fizzy, sour candy beads. The combination of light, airy wafer and tangy interior creates a playful, multi-sensory experience that keeps people coming back for more.

With the sour version, the candy takes on a modern twist. The familiar sweet wafer gives way to a puckering, tangy punch, making every bite an adventure. It’s perfect for anyone looking to balance nostalgia with a bold flavour kick.


The Flavour Experience

One of the reasons sour Satellite Wafers stand out is their layered texture and flavour:

  • Outer wafer: Crisp, light, and slightly sweet. It melts on the tongue, offering a delicate start to the candy experience.

  • Inner candy beads: Tiny and fizzy, they explode with sourness that’s balanced just right—not too overwhelming, but enough to surprise your taste buds.

  • The finish: The combination leaves a lasting impression, a sweet-and-sour memory that transports you back to childhood candy aisles while keeping things excitingly modern.

The sour Satellite Wafers are perfect for those who love a little adventure in their candy. They’re a treat that’s as fun to eat as it is to share.
