Coca-Cola, Cola Bottles and Cola-Flavoured Sweets: What's Actually the Difference

If you typed something like "coca cola 24 pack" or "24 cans of coke" and ended up on a sweet shop's website, this is probably not what you were looking for — and we'd rather tell you that plainly than waste your time.

We don't sell the drink

Supreme Sweets is a confectionery wholesaler. We don't stock Coca-Cola, Pepsi, Fanta, Sprite, Irn-Bru or any other branded soft drink in cans, bottles or multipacks — not now, and not as a smaller side range either. If you need an actual 24-pack of Coke, you'll want a supermarket or a drinks wholesaler, not us.

Why you might have landed here anyway

"Cola" is a flavour as well as a drink, and it's a hugely popular one in British confectionery — cola bottles and cola cubes are pick 'n' mix staples. Search engines don't always distinguish between someone wanting the drink and someone wanting the flavour, and we rank well for the sweets side of that search, which is almost certainly how you got here.

What we do stock: cola-flavoured sweets

If it's the flavour rather than the can you're actually interested in, we carry a genuinely wide range of cola-flavoured confectionery, including Haribo Cola Bottles, Haribo Giant Cola Bottles, Haribo Cherry Cola, Haribo Happy Cola, Kingsway Cola Bottles, Vidal Jelly Filled Cola Bottles, Vidal Giant Fizzy Cola Cables, Barratt Fizzy Cola Bottles and Stockley's Cola Cubes. None of them taste exactly like the drink — they're built from a flavouring blend designed to evoke cola generally, not to copy one specific brand — but if you want the full explanation of why, we've written about that separately in why cola sweets don't actually taste like cola.

The full range sits in our Cola Sweets collection.
