Best-Selling American Sweets at Appleton Sweets

At Appleton Sweets, we’re packed to the rafters with America’s most beloved confections. How about the mouth-puckering zing of Warheads? Or maybe you prefer the creamy dreams that are Reese's Peanut Butter Cups?


Whether you fancy yourself as a bit of a sweet specialist or just seeking something to brighten up your snack stash, you’re in for a real treat. From the nostalgic flavours of childhood favourites to the latest candy sensations sweeping the nation, our collection is a candy lover’s paradise. 


But why, exactly, do American sweets seem to fly off the shelves here in the UK? Read on to learn more about our brightly-coloured American sweets and what all the fuss is about.


Why are American sweets so different?


So, what’s all the fuss about with American sweets? What is it that makes them so spectacular? Well, for one, they bring an energy. A vibe. Notice how bright and varied the colours are? That's no coincidence. They’re as delightful to look at as they are to gobble up.


Flavour-wise, the American makers really go for it. They throw in combos you wouldn't dream up on your best day. Chocolate jam-packed with salty pretzels or gummy bears with a kick of fiery cinnamon. The American creativity just keeps you guessing what’s coming next.


And don’t get us started on the size and shape—everything's bigger and bolder. Even the packaging makes you think, “This is gonna be good!” It's this all-in spirit that sets American sweets apart. Sure, they're treats. But they’re also an experience.  


Top Picks from Appleton Sweets


So, what are our favourite candies? Check out our four faves:


Marshmallow fluff


Now, you can spread fluffy clouds on your toast in the form of Marshmallow Fluff. This gooey, spreadable marshmallow cream is an ingenious way to jazz up an everyday hot chocolate. Also, it’s a must-try if you love a bit of sweet, sticky magic in your treats.


Nerds wild cherry & watermelon


When you tuck into a box of Nerds Wild Cherry & Watermelon, expect a zingy punch of flavour that’s hard to beat. These tiny, crunchy candies deliver a beautiful blend of pungent cherry and juicy watermelon. Love your sweets with a tart twist? Then these are an addictive pick for you.


Reese's peanut butter cups


What happens when you mix smooth peanut butter with velvety chocolate? Pure bliss, that's what. Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups are a classic choice for a reason—they’re irresistible. Great for sharing, or, you know, not.


Warheads jelly beans


Steady yourself! Warheads Jelly Beans brings the iconic Warheads sour explosion in a chewy jelly bean format. Each bean delivers a burst of sourness that mellows into a sugary, fruity finish. They're a hit at any party or for anyone who loves a sour kick.


Why buy wholesale American sweets?


Want to stock up on your favourite sweets? Buying wholesale from us here at Appleton Sweets is the way to go, and here’s why. Firstly, buying from us is wallet-friendlier. Purchasing in bulk means you get a better price per unit, so your wallet doesn’t take as big of a hit. You enjoy more sweets for less cash!


Another perk? You get access to sheer variety. Instead of picking and choosing between your favourites, you have them all. Even better, you won’t run low on stock any time soon, which is a total win if you're planning events or just have an incredible sweet tooth.


Lastly, it’s convenient. One big order can sort you out for months, and with everything delivered straight to your door, it doesn’t get easier than that. So, if you’re looking to save money, enjoy assortment, and keep things simple, check out our wholesale American sweets.


Occasions for American sweets


American sweets will no doubt spice up any occasion. Hosting a birthday bash? Masses of multicoloured Nerds and soft Marshmallow Fluffs turn any party into a hit.


And they’re excellent for movie nights, too. Grab some Warheads Lil’ Worms for some munching during the flick.

And don’t forget the holidays! A basket filled with Wonka Laffy Taffy Banana Ropes makes a fab gift for Easter or Christmas.


Truthfully, anytime you fancy a bit of fun or a sweet pick-me-up, you can always count on our American classics. They're always delicious, all-around, and guaranteed to make anyone grin.


How to pick the perfect American candies


Picking the right American sweets doesn’t mean snatching anything old thing off the shelf. You want to match the treats to your taste buds. A fan of a good tang? Plump for something like Warheads or Sour Patch Kids —they'll leave your mouth tingling for more.


Prefer classic flavours? You can't go wrong with Hershey’s Cookies N Chocolate. Holding a get-together? Nestle and Jelly Belly offer a variety of flavours that everyone can enjoy. Think about who’s enjoying these treats with you. Whether it's for a gift, a gathering, or just a cosy night in, there’s a perfect sweet treat for every occasion and palate.
