Bon Bon Bum, Tajín partner for candy collaboration

The idea was inspired by fans who already enjoy Tajín on fruits, drinks, and sweets.

USA – Bon Bon Bum®, a bubblegum-filled lollipop from Colombina, has teamed up with Tajín®, a chile-lime seasoning brand, to launch an exciting new flavor experience that blends sweetness, spice, and fun.

Branded as “The Mix That Hits,” the collaboration brings together juicy watermelon and tropical passion fruit lollipops with Tajín’s signature chile-lime seasoning. 

It yields a sweet-and-tangy treat that delivers both indulgence and interaction. Each gum-filled pop comes with its own pouch of Tajín, turning a simple candy into an engaging two-in-one snacking ritual.

“This collaboration is about flavor innovation and cultural celebration,” said Mauricio Escobar, Vice President of Marketing at Colombina. “By pairing our iconic lollipops with Tajín’s bold seasoning, we’re creating a playful and unforgettable candy experience that reflects the creativity of our fans.”

Haydeé Fernández, Director of Alliances at Tajín USA, echoed the excitement, noting that the idea was inspired by fans who already enjoy Tajín on fruits, drinks, and sweets.

“This partnership celebrates that creativity and invites everyone to enjoy lollipops in a fresh, fun new way, partaking in a ritual introduced by our fans on social media,” she said.

The Bon Bon Bum® x Tajín® 20-count packs are now available at select retailers nationwide and online for $11.99. 

Fans are encouraged to share their dip-and-lick creations on social media using the hashtag #MyWayToTajinIt and tagging @TajinUSA and @BonBonBumUS.
