It captures the familiar character of the classic British pudding while turning it into a playful confectionery favourite suited to pick and mix bags, sweet jars, parties and sharing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Are Haribo Rhubarb and Custard Sweets?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sweetsshop.uk\/collections\/haribo-rhubarb-and-custard\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHaribo Rhubarb and Custard\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e sweets are soft fruit-and-cream-flavoured chews inspired by the traditional pairing of tangy rhubarb and smooth custard. Their distinctive colours reflect the two contrasting flavours, giving them instant visual appeal in a sweet jar or pick and mix display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEvery piece brings together:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTangy rhubarb flavour\u003c\/strong\u003e with a bright, fruity character\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCreamy custard notes\u003c\/strong\u003e that soften and balance the sharpness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA soft, chewy texture\u003c\/strong\u003e rather than a hard-boiled finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDistinctive two-colour presentation\u003c\/strong\u003e with nostalgic sweet-shop appeal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTrusted Haribo quality\u003c\/strong\u003e from one of the world’s best-known confectionery brands\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA generous 1kg quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e for sharing, parties and keeping the cupboard properly supplied\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eRhubarb Sharpness Meets Creamy Custard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRhubarb and custard works because the two flavours perform completely different jobs. Rhubarb contributes the fruity tang, while custard supplies a rounder, creamier sweetness. One wakes up the palate; the other reassures it that everything is under control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is sweet without becoming one-dimensional and tangy without turning aggressively sour. These are not fizzy rhubarb and custard sweets covered in sour sugar. Instead, the contrast is built into the flavour itself, producing a balanced chew that feels lively, creamy and pleasantly nostalgic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSoft and Chewy, Not Hard-Boiled\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTraditional rhubarb and custard confectionery is often sold as hard-boiled sweets, but Haribo takes the flavour in a different direction. These pieces have a soft and substantial bite that releases the rhubarb and custard taste immediately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThat distinctive texture makes them an excellent choice for fans of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sweetsshop.uk\/collections\/chewy-sweets\"\u003eChewy Sweets\u003c\/a\u003e. There is no waiting for a boiled sweet to dissolve and no brittle shell to crunch through—just a tender chew and an immediate combination of fruity sharpness and creamy flavour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe softer format also helps explain their broad appeal. Adults recognise the flavour from traditional sweet shops and childhood puddings, while younger sweet lovers can enjoy the colourful appearance and familiar Haribo chew without requiring any knowledge of what was kept in their grandparents’ confectionery cupboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Choose a 1kg Bag?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA standard packet is useful for a quick treat.

They provide a creamy, tangy alternative to fruit gummies, fizzy bottles and heavily sugar-coated sour sweets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eServe them alone for a coordinated rhubarb and custard selection or combine them with other \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sweetsshop.uk\/collections\/haribo-sweets\"\u003eHaribo Sweets\u003c\/a\u003e to create a mixture of shapes, textures and flavours. They sit particularly well beside fruity gummies and foam sweets because their creamier character adds contrast to the bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1kg format also makes portioning straightforward. Divide the sweets between cones and party bags, place them in covered jars or add them to a larger Haribo pick and mix display. Because they are supplied loose rather than individually wrapped, they are easy to arrange and serve in quantities appropriate to the occasion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTraditional Flavour with Modern Haribo Character\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRhubarb and custard has long been part of British confectionery culture. The pairing appears in puddings, boiled sweets, chews and other nostalgic treats because its balance of sharp fruit and gentle creaminess is difficult to improve upon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHaribo retains that familiar flavour contrast but presents it with a softer texture and brighter personality. The result belongs just as naturally among modern gummy sweets as it does within a collection of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sweetsshop.uk\/collections\/retro-sweets\"\u003eRetro Sweets\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThat mixture of familiarity and novelty is precisely the point. These sweets can remind one person of childhood visits to the sweet shop while becoming an entirely new favourite for somebody else.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMade by One of the World’s Best-Known Sweet Brands\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sweetsshop.uk\/pages\/haribo\"\u003eHaribo\u003c\/a\u003e was established by Hans Riegel in Bonn, Germany, in 1920. Its name is formed from the opening letters of Hans Riegel Bonn, while the company’s early Dancing Bear gummies eventually developed into the famous Goldbears.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe brand has since become known worldwide for gummy sweets, fruit-flavoured confectionery, foam sweets, liquorice and countless colourful creations. Haribo Rhubarb and Custard demonstrates one of its particular strengths: taking a familiar flavour and giving it an unmistakably playful texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePerfect for Parties, Sweet Tables and Gifts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe distinctive colour combination helps these sweets stand out on party tables and confectionery displays. Fill glass jars for a wedding sweet cart, divide the bag between birthday cones or add them to a mixed hamper for someone who appreciates classic British flavours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor a more practical ready-to-share format, consider the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sweetsshop.uk\/products\/haribo-rhubarb-and-custard-sweet-tub\"\u003eHaribo Rhubarb and Custard Sweet Tub\u003c\/a\u003e.

Their nostalgic flavour gives the recipient something familiar, while the soft Haribo texture prevents the selection from feeling entirely predictable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIngredients and Dietary Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCurrent Haribo Rhubarb and Custard recipes contain gelatine and are therefore not suitable for vegetarians or vegans. Ingredients, allergen information and manufacturing statements can change, so always read the label supplied with the product before purchasing for a particular dietary requirement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCustomers checking for gluten, wheat, milk or other allergens should use the information on the packaging received rather than relying on the appearance or flavour of the sweets. Similar confectionery products can use very different recipes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Keep Haribo Rhubarb and Custard Fresh\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStore the sweets sealed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, heat and moisture. Close the bag firmly after opening or transfer the contents to a clean, airtight food container.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAvoid leaving chewy sweets near radiators or in warm cars, as excessive heat can soften them and affect their appearance. Proper storage helps preserve the tender texture and balanced rhubarb and custard flavour—assuming the bag remains unopened long enough for storage to become a serious concern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Choose Our 1kg Haribo Rhubarb \u0026amp; Custard?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuthentic Haribo Rhubarb and Custard sweets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTangy rhubarb and creamy custard flavour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft and satisfyingly chewy texture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA modern version of a traditional British sweet-shop favourite\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenerous 1kg bag for sharing and entertaining\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for pick and mix displays and sweet jars\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect for parties, weddings and celebration tables\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExcellent for retro sweet hampers and gifts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConvenient loose format for portioning into cones, cups and bags\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eAre Haribo Rhubarb and Custard sweets hard or chewy?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThey are soft and chewy, not traditional hard-boiled rhubarb and custard sweets.
