Wonka Sour Puckerooms Gummies have apparently been out for a bit but I just saw them for the first time today while looking over the sour candy section at Target. When I saw the picture of the Puckerooms on the package I thought "Oh, ha, they can't really look like that...It seems there would have been some sorta outrage." So of course I had to buy some.

Yes, they really do look like this:

While Puckerooms are ideal for fun cupcake decorating they're kind of lacking as a sour candy. The one strong point is that the candy itself has some sour flavor unlike other sour gummies which just coat a generic jelly in sour sugar.

Puckerooms are OK, they're not really that sour, and other than getting some for gingerbread man fun I wouldn't buy them again.
