Trolli, Mountain Dew launch sweet, sour collaboration

U.S.A. – Trolli, the sour gummy candy brand known for bold flavor mashups, has teamed up with PepsiCo’s Mountain Dew® to debut two limited-edition innovations: Trolli x Mountain Dew Sour Brite Crawlers gummy candy and Mountain Dew Zero Sugar x Trolli Cherry Lemon.

The partnership delivers a sweet-and-sour experience in both candy and beverage form. 

Trolli x Mountain Dew Sour Brite Crawlers feature three punchy flavor combinations in every bag: Original Citrus, Original Citrus x Cherry, and Original Citrus x Blue Raspberry. 

Each piece delivers Mountain Dew’s signature citrus profile fused with Trolli’s soft, chewy texture, creating a new way to enjoy the iconic soda taste.

“Trolli stands for taking bold risks and creating unexpected flavor experiences, and pairing with Mountain Dew delivers on our consumers’ love of daring to think differently,” said Chad Womack, Brand Director at Trolli. 

“When you combine the signature citrus kick of Mountain Dew with our chewy sour gummy candy texture, you get something next-level tasty that will surprise and delight fans of both brands,” he added.

Meanwhile, Mountain Dew Zero Sugar x Trolli Cherry Lemon takes the tangy-sweet profile of Trolli Cherry Lemon Sour Brite Crawlers and transforms it into a zero-sugar beverage. The drink blends bright citrus with sour cherry-lemon notes for a refreshing, 100% exhilarating taste.

“Mountain Dew is always innovating bold new flavors, making Trolli the perfect partner for a one-of-a-kind mashup,” said Michael Smith, VP of Flavored CSD Marketing, PepsiCo Beverages U.S. “We’ve taken everything fans love about Trolli Cherry Lemon Sour Brite Crawlers and translated it into a refreshing zero sugar experience bursting with citrus flavor.”

Trolli x Mountain Dew Sour Brite Crawlers will roll out at select retailers nationwide in August, available in 4.25oz, 6.3oz, and 12.3oz packs to satisfy every craving. 

Mountain Dew Zero Sugar x Trolli Cherry Lemon will launch exclusively at Walmart on August 25, 2025, before expanding nationwide on September 8, 2025, in 20oz bottles and 12-pack 12oz cans.

Both products are limited-time releases available while supplies last, reinforcing each brand’s reputation for bold, playful innovation and giving fans of sweet-and-sour treats a chance to experience their favorite flavors in an entirely new way.
