Sour Strips Are Back at YEG Exotic – Bold Flavour, Big Hype, and Serious Sour
Sour candy fans, the wait is officially over — Sour Strips are back at YEG Exotic! One of the most requested items in the store, Sour Strips deliver the kind of punch-you-in-the-mouth sourness that candy lovers can’t get enough of. And now, after being sold out again and again, we’ve fully restocked all your favourite flavours!
Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to the hype, Sour Strips are one of those candies you have to experience to understand. They’re chewy, flavourful, colourful, and unapologetically sour. Once you open a pack, it’s nearly impossible to stop.
What Are Sour Strips?
If you’re not familiar yet (where have you been?), Sour Strips are bold, flat sour candy belts created by YouTuber and fitness influencer Maxx Chewning. But don’t let the influencer background fool you — these are legitimately awesome sour candies that stand out in a crowded market.
Unlike most sour candy that promises a blast and delivers a whisper, Sour Strips actually live up to their name. The texture is perfectly chewy, the sugar coating is thick, and the flavours? Insanely good.
Some of the most popular Sour Strips flavours now restocked at YEG Exotic include:
-
Strawberry – a fan-favourite classic
-
Blue Raspberry – the ultimate sour-sweet combo
-
Tropical Mango – sweet, juicy, and unique
-
Pink Lemonade – tart, tangy, and addicting
-
Green Apple – bold and crisp, like biting into the real thing
These aren't your average corner-store candy strips — these are the heavy hitters of the sour world.
Why People Love Them
At YEG Exotic, we hear it all the time: “When are the Sour Strips coming back?” That’s because this brand has built a cult following — and not just for the influencer connection. The taste and texture are top tier, and the packaging is fun, bold, and modern.
Whether you’re buying them to snack on, share with friends, or feature in a candy haul video, Sour Strips bring the wow factor. They also make great additions to candy charcuterie boards, birthday gifts, and TikTok taste tests.
Pair Them With Your Favourite Edmonton Pop
Of course, if you’re going to dive into Sour Strips, you’re going to need something cold and fizzy to wash it down — and that’s where our exotic soda wall comes in. YEG Exotic carries a constantly rotating lineup of rare and imported sodas, perfect for pairing with candy this sour.
Some pop pairings to try with Sour Strips:
-
Japanese Melon Fanta – soft, sweet, and smooth to contrast the sour
-
Pepsi Mango – tropical meets cola with Sour Strips Mango
-
Mountain Dew Baja Blast – iconic and sharp, just like the candy
-
Korean Strawberry Milk Soda – creamy and sweet to balance the tang
Whatever your taste, we’ve got Edmonton pop options that bring your Sour Strips experience to the next level.
