Skittles UK

Skittles UK
Originally invented in the United Kingdom during the early 1970s, Skittles were heavily inspired by an age-old game of the same name. Since then, they have become a timeless classic in both the United States and their home country.

The Skittles in the UK differ from their American counterpart in two ways. One way is the flavour (blackcurrant in the United Kingdom vs. grape in the United States). The other way is how each country sources its colouring ingredients. The UK's Skittles sources its colouring ingredients more naturally, by using fruits, vegetables, and roots (ie: beetroot, grapes, and turmeric in Fruits Skittles). The United States sources its colouring ingredients using artificial dyes. Try them all!
