What is JUBLA CANDY? Bringing the "Magic of Swedish Sweets" to Japan
"What is this texture!?" With one bite, everyone is enveloped in surprise and joy. That's JUBLA CANDY, a new sensation sweet from Sweden. This isn't just a candy. It's an entirely new "experience" packed with happy Nordic culture.
The brand name "JUBLA" means "to rejoice" or "to be overjoyed" in Swedish. As the name suggests, each candy brings maximum excitement and smiles to your daily life. The roots of this magical experience lie in the beloved Nordic "pick-and-mix" culture. This project started with the passion to bring that dreamlike bulk candy culture, where you choose colorful gummies and chocolates as if selecting jewels, to everyone in Japan.
Why are Nordic candies gaining attention now? Since around 2023, there has been increasing interest in "well-being" and "small rewards that fill the heart," primarily on social media. We predict that the demand for sweets with wonderful stories behind them, not just sweetness, will become a major trend in the Japanese sweets market by 2026. A new way to enjoy sweets that satisfy both mind and body is here.
What is "Lördagsgodis," the Swedish Tradition?
In Sweden, there's a wonderful tradition called "Lördagsgodis," which means "Saturday sweets." This is a special weekend treat time where you abstain from sweets a bit during the weekdays and enjoy your favorites only on Saturdays. It's a reward for working hard all week or for time spent with loved ones. JUBLA CANDY proposes this delightful culture to the Japanese lifestyle. How about starting a new way of living where weekends are even more anticipated?
The Assurance of Being Produced by FIKAFABRIKEN
To bring this wonderful experience to Japan, the production was handled by "FIKAFABRIKEN," a Swedish confectionery cafe in Gotokuji, Tokyo, that boasts immense popularity. Their commitment is not just to deliciousness but also to conveying the culture behind it. The selected candies are carefully chosen based on their deep knowledge of various Swedish sweets and desserts, such as cinnamon rolls and princess cakes. The spirit of "FIKA," enjoying a rich time with coffee, is alive in every single candy.
The Secret of Popular No.1 "BUBS" and Gift Boxes: A New Texture for All Five Senses
Once you step into the JUBLA CANDY online store, there's one thing you can't help but check out: the immensely popular "BUBS" series. Why does it captivate so many people? The secret lies in its unprecedented "texture" and the "excitement" that begins the moment you open the box. Here, we'll thoroughly dissect the charm of BUBS and everything about the gift boxes that maximize its enjoyment!
A Thorough Report on BUBS' "New Texture"
"Is this a marshmallow? Or a gummy?" Most people who taste BUBS for the first time say this. But the answer is neither. This is a completely new category called "foam." It's fluffy yet has a firm chew, and a mysterious sensation of dissolving with a fizz in your mouth. The series' flagship, "Banana Toffee Foam," offers this experience most prominently. The moment you bite into it, the rich sweetness of ripe banana spreads, followed by the savory richness of toffee melting in. This exquisite harmony is unforgettable once you've experienced it. And listen closely. That light "rollin'" sound you hear when you chew. That sound is the magical resonance that accelerates its addictiveness.
But the charm of BUBS isn't just its appearance or texture. All candies selected by JUBLA CANDY are vegan (no animal ingredients), gelatin-free, and palm oil-free. Beyond deliciousness, they thoroughly pursue quality that everyone can enjoy with peace of mind. This is not just a commitment but also a global trend. As reported by Forbes magazine on Top Trends in Vegan and Plant-Based Desserts, choosing plant-based sweets has become an established delicious new lifestyle since 2020.

Why is JUBLA CANDY Chosen? Three Commitments (Individual Packaging, Vegan, Quality)
If you thought, "It's just gummy or candy, right?" then you're missing out! There's a good reason why JUBLA CANDY captivates sweet lovers worldwide. It's the three unwavering "commitments" behind its deliciousness. We'll secretly tell you the secret of this future sweet experience, cute yet more than just cute, delivered from Northern Europe.
We value these three promises:
- Individual packaging style: Safety and convenience that adapt to Japanese culture.
- Vegan options: A choice everyone can enjoy, also kind to the earth.
- Thorough quality control: Passion for delivering the fresh taste of Northern Europe as is.
It's completely different from the usual "bulk" sweets. A sophisticated brand experience that begins the moment you open the bag. That's the excitement we want to deliver.
Safety and Convenience Brought by Japan-Standard "Individual Packaging"
In overseas gummy shops, you often see the style of picking as much as you like from large cases. It's fun, but don't you ever worry about hygiene? For all of you in Japan who value cleanliness, we've individually packaged all our products. Each piece is securely packed, so it's always fresh and safe. It won't get sticky even if you put it directly in your bag, and it's easy to share with friends, saying, "Want to try this?" Even with individual packaging, the pop and cute Nordic design remains. Just having it on your desk is sure to lift your spirits!
Vegan-Friendly Choices
No need to worry, "Are vegan gummies delicious?" Many of our gummies are "gelatin-free," meaning they use absolutely no animal-derived gelatin. Instead, by using pectin extracted from Swedish apples, we've achieved a surprisingly juicy and elastic texture. The sensation of the fruit's true flavor directly bursting in your mouth upon eating is addictive once you experience it. This isn't just a choice for those who care about health and the environment. It's a new proposal for everyone who wants to enjoy sweets more purely and deliciously. All raw materials are carefully selected to meet the EU's strict food safety standards (No 178/2002).
From the factory in Northern Europe to your hands in Japan, its freshness and quality are thoroughly protected. Candies shipped within 72 hours of manufacturing are transported in containers with 24-hour temperature and humidity control. Upon arrival in Japan, our quality control team inspects each item against over 20 strict checklist points, including "color," "shape," "aroma," and "packaging seal integrity." That's why you can always enjoy the taste of Northern Europe in its best condition. This commitment to unseen details is the heart of JUBLA CANDY's deliciousness.
A Life Enriched with JUBLA: Enjoyment Ideas for Every Scene
JUBLA CANDY isn't just candy. It's a special presence that brings a little magic and excitement to your daily life. One bite, and the crispy new texture and rich flavor will transform your usual time into a special moment. Here are some scene-by-scene ideas to enjoy JUBLA even more!
The Unexpected Compatibility of Coffee (FIKA) and Candy
The Swedish culture of "FIKA" is a break time to enjoy coffee and something sweet. JUBLA becomes the perfect partner during this time. When the firm bitterness of dark roast coffee meets the concentrated sweet-sourness of JUBLA, an astonishingly rich flavor pairing is created! Especially strawberry or raspberry-flavored varieties enhance the coffee's aroma even further. With a cardamom roll from FIKAFABRIKEN, a few pieces of JUBLA on your favorite mug and wooden plate will instantly transform your home into a Nordic cafe. Why not make your usual coffee time a richer and more luxurious experience?
When you're losing focus during desk work, that's when JUBLA comes in handy! A single piece during a break from PC work, and that unique "crunch!" texture provides the best refreshment. Mint or citrus flavors can also clear your head. Just having a small glass jar on your desk, its colorful appearance might even boost your work motivation!
For a home party with friends, we recommend creating a colorful candy buffet with JUBLA! Simply arrange several types in transparent glass bowls or jars of different heights, and your table will instantly become more vibrant. Guests can freely mix and match their favorite flavors, guaranteed to spark conversation. They're also delicious as toppings for ice cream or yogurt, adding a wonderful textural accent!
And you'll definitely want to share this cuteness! Tips for taking cute JUBLA CANDY photos that get lots of "likes" on social media are "light" and "background." The key is to take photos by a window with natural light, using your favorite magazine or dried flowers as a background. Breaking a candy in half to show its cross-section will convey its unique freeze-dried texture, making for a professional-looking shot!
Gift-Giving Ideas
When you're wondering "What should I give?", JUBLA is a foolproof choice. It's perfect for birthdays and White Day, as well as small "thank you" gifts for everyday appreciation. The visual impact and the surprise of a familiar candy transforming will bring a smile to the recipient's face.
- For a small thank you (~¥800): Mini packs in clear pouches are a surefire item that you can give casually and still be told, "You have good taste!"
- For a friend's birthday present (~¥2,000): A select box where you can choose 3 types of flavors or colors that your friend likes is recommended. Adding a message card will convey your feelings even more.
- For special occasions: Just adding it as a "plus one" to another gift instantly upgrades it to a stylish and heartfelt present.
If you're tired of ordinary gifts, JUBLA will deliver your feelings in a special way.
