With the growing popularity of Swedish candy, stores across the country are apparently having a hard time keeping up with all the orders.

Abigail Feehley, @abigailfeehls, a social media business owner and content creator based in Atlanta, Georgia, has developed a major following on social media because of her Swedish candy reviews.

It all started when her friend sent her a surprise package of Swedish candy from BonBon — and she decided to unbox the gift on her TikTok account.

"I've done a few videos of just me eating candy because it's kind of like my favorite thing, like I've done a few videos like that, but they never, ever blew up the way Swedish candy did… Swedish candy took over," Feehley told Fox News Digital.

In her videos, she talks about the quality of the candies and the different textures of each sweet — a major factor in what distinguishes the candy from other sweets in America.

The candy has unique shapes, textures, flavors and bright hues.

"With Swedish candy you can have a couple of really unique, fun pieces, and it's like an experience with the texture, the colors. It's just fun [and] I think people are just attracted to it," Feehley said.

There is a ritual surrounding candy in Sweden called "Lördagsgodis" — which translates to "Saturday sweets," according to the BBC.

The once-a-week tradition beloved by families in Sweden gave the candy a sort of sophistication and special quality that makes the sweet so indulgent.

"It's like a special experience and I think I see that and taste that within the candy, I really do," Feehley said.

She went on, "It's not just like opening a pack of Skittles. It's like, ‘Wow! I'm really having an indulging moment, and it's really good and I only need a few pieces to get my fix.'"

There are all kinds of sweet and sour flavors of Swedish candy — and some seem to be even more popular than others.

Feehley has found that the larger candies, specifically the skulls and "bubs," are very popular. 

Some special flavors include sour raspberry and citrus, cool cola, cool passion pineapple, wild strawberry pomegranate, sour tutti frutti, banana caramel and more.

"I just remember the cola skulls do very well, too… I describe them [as] 'fizzy,' and I was like, ‘This literally tastes like a Diet Coke,’ and the internet broke," Feehley said.

"We can't even get ahold of them… They're on back order."

"People wanted to get their hands on them and all these companies were like, 'We can't even get ahold of them… They're on back order.'"

She went on, "So I was getting flooded with comments like, ‘You sold them out’ – pretty hateful comments, and I was like, ‘No, I just ate one on the internet.'"

Many have told Feehley to try eating two different candy flavors back to back — which can bring about a new flavor sensation. 

Some people have suggested eating multi-flavored bubs or skulls all in one bite, which apparently allows eaters to experience a burst of flavors at the same time.

Some celebrities including Shay Mitchell and Bethany Frankel or TikTok personalities such as Mary Elizabeth Kelly have given the candy a try and say they've fallen in love with it.
