If one truth reigns supreme in the candy universe, it's this: the Pink Starburst reigns supreme.
The flavor? Strawberry. The vibe? Pure happiness.
And for those of us who have spent far too long rifling through a pack of Original Starburst to dig out those pink gems, the Starburst "Limited Edition" All-Pink Fruit Chews is nothing short of a confectionery miracle.
But beyond being a delicious snack, these all-pink strawberry beauties have a sweet story—and an even sweeter potential; after all, who is all about having their favorite candy live up to its potential?
A VERY Brief History of Pink Starburst Fruit Chews
Pink Starburst fever took hold so fiercely that in 2017, Mars Wrigley (the masterminds behind Starburst and many of the most popular candies) finally gave the people what they wanted: All-Pink Starburst Fruit Chews.
Although this product has been available for 8 years, it is only available in the summer months, adding to its mystique and making it somewhat of a Limited Edition.
Why the Pink Starburst is Perfect for Breast Cancer Awareness
Although we love candy for candy's sake, we were blown away when we sold these to a local hospital gift shop!
Let's talk pink with a purpose.
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and pink has become a powerful symbol of the movement. It is prominently featured in the Breast Cancer Awareness logo, and this vibrant, feminine color has long been associated with a noble cause.
With this in mind, and with no rule that you have to wait until October to do a noble gesture, why not use All Pink Starburst for your next fundraising event for Breast Cancer Awareness, or bring sweetness to someone who might need it?
As we love to brainstorm at CandyFavorites.com, we asked the staff to devise fun ways to use this candy to make a healthier, sweeter future!
