Nerds Gummy Clusters Are Coming To The Popsicle Aisle

Nerds Gummy Clusters have already won over candy lovers with their crunchy candy shells and chewy centers. Now, the brand is taking that sweet combination to the freezer! A new Nerds Crunch Pop Very Berry frozen dairy dessert has surfaced and it sounds like a treat that could make ordinary ice cream bars seem a little boring.

The New Nerds Crunch Pop

The new combines strawberry-flavored frozen dairy dessert with a gummy center covered in Very Berry Nerds candy. 

The item has already appeared on Instacart, while food blogger Markie Devo says it will hit major stores soon, according to information he got from a major store manager.

There is plenty to like about the idea already. Nerds Gummy Clusters have a texture that makes them more interesting than an ordinary handful of candy. Putting that crunchy, chewy combination inside a frozen dessert could make for an especially fun snack. The big question is whether the candy coating and gummy center will deliver the same experience when paired with something cold and creamy.

Fans Have Already Found A Way To Make Nerds Popsicles 

Nerds fans didn’t have to wait for the new Crunch Pop to get their candy-and-popsicle fix. Some have already been mixing the two treats, and the results look pretty tempting!

In a Facebook post, Trina shared a fun way to give a Bomb Pop Nerds Popsicle an extra crunch. The trick is to roll the popsicle (in her case, a Bomb Pop Crunch) in Grape and Strawberry Nerds candy until the little crunchy pieces stick to the outside. It takes just a couple of minutes, and the result is a fruity, colorful treat with even more crunch in every bite.

You also have to let the popsicle soften for a minute or two before rolling it in the candy. That gives the Nerds something to stick to without turning the whole thing into a sticky mess. It’s a simple idea, but it adds another layer of texture to an already fruity frozen treat. According to the post, the kids loved the idea, too.

Better Than Trolli’s?

I think a Nerd’s strawberry-flavored frozen base, a gummy center, and a crunchy Very Berry candy coating combination could give Trolli some serious competition, especially for fans who love a little crunch with their chewy candy. The only issue is whether Nerds can get the balance of flavors and textures right.

The pop is expected to reach major retailers, but a confirmed nationwide release date and full retail availability details have yet to be established. Until then, Nerds fans have another reason to keep an eye on the freezer section.
