who invented gummy candy
Haribo gummy bears were the first gummi candy ever made. The gummi bear originated in Germany, where it is popular under the name GummibÃ¤r (rubber bear) or GummibÃ¤rchen (little rubber bear). Hans Riegel Sr., a candy maker from Bonn, produced these sweets under the Haribo company, which he started in 1920.
