A Confectionery Mashup
This is a big one. Two of the most recognisable names in British sweets, seemingly brought together in a single bag. The concept proposes a Haribo share bag based entirely on the Swizzels Drumstick Lolly, a fixture of newsagent pick’n’mix for decades. The lolly’s flavour is unmistakable: a chewy combination of milk and raspberry that is unique on the shelf.
Putting that specific profile into a Haribo format is an interesting proposition. Haribo’s dominance is built on pure fruit or sour fruit flavours. A creamy, milky element is new territory for their gummy sweets. The mockup’s packaging uses the familiar blue and red of the Drumstick wrapper, adapted for the classic Haribo bag shape. It’s a very logical piece of design.
The Haribo Share Bag Range
Haribo’s UK range is vast, but it follows a clear pattern. The core of the lineup consists of the big three mixers: Starmix, Supermix, and the sour Tangfastics. These bags are the brand’s bedrock. Alongside them sit the single-idea bags, like the iconic Goldbears or the long-established Jelly Babies.
More recent additions include the Fruitilicious bag, with 30% less sugar, and the retro-themed Nostalgix, which features sweetshop shapes like cola bottles and ice creams. The brand also has specific texture offerings, such as the Balla Bites Zing and Rainbow Strips Zing, which are distinct from their standard gummy products. Then you have the Chamallows. A Drumstick bag would have to find its space among these established players. It isn’t a mix, and it isn’t sour. It would be a flavour-specific, co-branded launch.
What the real range looks like
The current Haribo range focuses on mixed bags like Starmix and Tangfastics, or single-concept bags like Goldbears and Jelly Babies. A Drumstick variant would be a rare co-branded entry, bringing a creamy fruit flavour profile not currently found in their UK sharing bag lineup.

Frequently asked questions
- What flavour are Swizzels Drumstick lollies?
- The original and most famous Drumstick flavour is a combination of raspberry and milk. The lollies themselves are chewy sweets on a stick, not hard-boiled.
- Does Haribo sell sweets with creamy flavours?
- The famous Starmix bag contains foam-backed eggs and hearts, which have a softer, lighter texture, but the flavour profile across the main Haribo range is overwhelmingly fruit- or sour-fruit-based. A prominent milk flavour would be a departure.
- Are Haribo Drumstick Lollies real?
- No, this product does not exist. The image is a Snackfish, a fictional product concept created by the online page UK Snack Attack. It is not for sale.
