The global pop icon has a knack for setting trends, and her stamp of approval on a sweet treat is enough to send fans racing to candy aisles. This time, the buzz is all about Swizzels Squashies —the soft, chewy, and fruity sweets that have UK candy lovers obsessed.
What Are Swizzels Squashies?
Swizzels Squashies are a UK-based candy that comes in various mouth-watering flavors, with the most famous being Raspberry & Milk and Drumstick (Raspberry & Vanilla) . These sweets have a unique foam-like texture that makes them softer than traditional chewy candies, melting deliciously in your mouth.
Why Does Taylor Swift Love Them?
While filming the 2019 adaptation of Cats alongside Dame Judi Dench, Taylor Swift reminisced about a candy she had once tried in the U.K. called Squashies. During a press tour interview, Swift described them as “legit candy,” highlighting their gummy texture and delicious mix of strawberry, raspberry, and cherry flavors.
Dench, proving once again why she’s beloved, overheard Swift’s enthusiasm and later surprised her by leaving about ten packs of Squashies in her trailer. Fortunately, you don’t need a legendary actress to gift them to you—Squashies are available here!
