Skittles Gummies Fuego Launching Nationwide In January 2026
Skittles fans will soon be able to add some spice to their lives with the brand’s newest confection.
A stack of Skittles.
Gummies Fuego, a sweet-and-spicy take on the traditional candy, will be released by Skittles. On Monday, August 18, McLean, Virginia-based Mars Inc. issued a press statement announcing the “swicy” flavor.
The gummies, a combination of the five Skittles flavors—mango, watermelon, strawberry, raspberry, and lemon—have a tangy chili coating.
Ro Cheng, the marketing vice president for Mars Wrigley North America, stated, “At Mars, we’re always paying attention to emerging trends and looking for exciting new ways for our fans to experience Skittles.” “With Skittles Gummies Fuego, we’re adding some spice to a sweet, original fan favorite, bringing a bold flavor experience that we know ‘swicy’ fans will enjoy.”
Before a nationwide rollout in January 2026, the gummies are being sold in limited numbers on TikTok Shop, where the first taste is currently accessible. As part of a limited release in the fall, a few merchants will also stock the product.
The weight of each pack is 5.8 ounces. Together with Skittles POP’d, Skittles Littles, and Skittles Gummies, the new product adds to the brand’s expanding innovation roster.
Mars recently said that in 2026, artificial food coloring will no longer be used in M&M’s Chocolate, Skittles Original, Extra Gum Spearmint, and Starburst Original fruit chews marketed in the United States.
