Yumy Bear Sour Watermelon is a plant-based gummy bear candy with a sweet and sour watermelon taste. Each 50 g bag has 3 g of sugar and 21 g of fibre, and the candy is sweetened with stevia leaf extract and fruit juice rather than sugar alcohols. This listing sells the single 50 g bag or a box of 12 bags.
Nutrition per bag
One 50 g bag is one serving of 115 Calories. It has 39 g of carbohydrate, of which 21 g is fibre (75% of the daily value) and 3 g is sugars, with 0 g of sugar alcohols. Fat is 0.2 g, protein is under 0.1 g and sodium is 39 mg. The full panel is under Ingredients.
Ingredients
The first ingredient is non-GMO soluble corn fibre, which gives the bears their body and most of their carbohydrate. Then come water, citric acid and natural watermelon juice concentrate, with pectin as the gelling agent in place of gelatin. Fumaric, malic and citric acids with sodium citrate give the sour edge, stevia leaf extract adds sweetness, carnauba wax keeps the pieces from sticking, and natural and imitation watermelon flavour finishes it. There is no gelatin or other animal ingredient, so the candy is vegan.
How it compares
Classic gummy bears are made with sugar and gelatin. Yumy Bear keeps sugar at 3 g a bag by building the candy on soluble fibre and stevia. It also skips the sugar alcohols such as maltitol or erythritol that some low-sugar candies use. Other low-sugar candy brands, such as SmartSweets, take a similar route with different fibres and sweeteners, so the texture and sweetness differ from brand to brand.
How to enjoy it
Eat it straight from the bag, share it, or tuck a bag into a lunch or a hiking pack. The box of 12 is the easy way to keep a supply in the pantry or at the office. Because each bag has 21 g of fibre, people new to high-fibre foods may want to start with part of a bag.
Who it suits
It suits anyone who likes sour gummies and is watching sugar, people who avoid gelatin, and parents looking for a lower-sugar candy for lunch boxes and parties. Check the ingredient list if you have a corn sensitivity.

My wife has been buying these for our kids as an alternative to sourpatch kids and other such sugary snacks that are loaded with junk ingredients. We all really like them! They have a great sour watermelon flavour and are not too sweet. The kids love them and I think they are a healthier option than most other sour candies on the market.
