Talk:Chupa Chups

message: Waiting for a list of Chupa Chups flavours...
"In the early 1950s, Bernat worked for an apple jam factory. As he introduced later his idea of lollipops to the investors, they left."
Those investors didn't like lollipops? What is this text supposed to mean?
I'm not really sure, but I did edit it so it's grammatically correct. I found an article which indicated that when Bernat took over, he reduced the product lines from 200 to 1. Maybe he suggested focusing on lollipops and the investors revolted? --Hcethatsme 15:31, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

I added some that I've seen (cremosa caramel, berries yogurt, etc)and also from the Japanese chupa chups website but there seem to be a lot of variation from country to country....   —Preceding unsigned comment added by Naruelle (talk • contribs) 04:49, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Plagiarism? 

message: I've found no reference of Photo Pop on their website and have only managed to find a few people mentioning its existance on the web. I am unable to locate any details about this extremely odd idea for a candy, much less any place where it can be purchased. Can anyone verify the Photo Pop's existance?
I put in a link just now! http://www.chupachupsgroup.com/accessible/prodChupa_technicalCard.asp?intIdProd=22

message: Chupa Chups originated in Spain.  The way it is pronounced is Choopa Choop.  In Spanish, the "U" makes the long sound...Choopa Choop!  It is not Chuppa Chupp!    — Preceding unsigned comment added by 101.185.33.224 (talk) 08:36, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Same here - I only ever heard it pronounced like what you've heard too, in England and Ireland. I was only made aware of the correct pronunciation by a song in one of the ads. --Zilog Jones 23:08, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Same here in South Wales - I've never heard it pronounced as anything other than "CHUPpa-chups", I must have missed the Choopa-Choops advert mentioned above? 81.104.160.179 00:37, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

text: I'm an Aussie ands we say CHUPpa-chups, also for the record, Chupa-chups have been in Australia since the late 70's not the 90's  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Twisted Colour (talk • contribs) 04:26, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  I'm also an Aussie, born and lived in Sydney since 1970, and everyone in my school and other schools pronounced it as "Choppa Chops". As a child we (my school friends and I) always wondered why it was spelt with a "U" instead of "O" and just assumed it was a Mommy/Mummy thing. <Shrugs>. SJ2571 (talk) 02:02, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

message: I'm fairly certain the sentence "The Chupa Chumps logo was designed by the surrealist The Archangel Rossiter." has been inserted as a bit of, um, not so accurate information.  According to the Salvador Dali page, he designed the logo, not in fact The Archangel Rossiter.  I think it's also properly "Chupa Chups" sans "m".
By the history of the page, this seems to be a periodic recurrence.  72.77.161.171 01:00, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

* Smint#History
After Perfetti Van Melle's acquisition of Chupa Chups, Smint is now the lickable version of the company's competitor Mentos.
<BR>Smint mini-mint pastilles were the first product from Spanish multinational Chupa Chups S.A designed for an adult market. In the 1990s Chupa Chups targeted adult customers wanting a sugar free product. After four years of development, Smint was introduced to the market in 1994 as a subsidiary brand.

message: For me, I remember Chupa Chups from the Spice Girls (Baby was always eating them). And there was a Spice Girls line of lollys with their faces on gumballs inside transparent lollys. I don't know if this can be added, I just wanted to ad.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.37.249.153 (talk) 05:28, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  It is the opposite of a "bully baby."

message: Someone altered the article so the definition of the name implies something of a sexual nature. The article states "name of the brand comes from the Spanish verb chupar, meaning "to lick" and the Enric's wife's name Chus.[1]". 161.69.57.14 (talk) 20:23, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
