If you've landed on "Niko B" or "Shades by Niko Sweets" while searching for sweets, you've probably seen the name pop up through social media rather than on a UK shop shelf — which is exactly why people search for it and then struggle to actually find it stocked anywhere.
What we can say with confidence
Names like this typically belong to smaller, US-based or online-first confectionery brands that build a following through short-form video content rather than traditional retail distribution. Details on the exact product range, ingredients, and current availability of "Niko B" / "Shades by Niko Sweets" specifically aren't reliably documented in the way an established brand like Haribo or Warheads is, so we'd rather be upfront about that than guess at specifics we can't verify.
Why this matters for UK buyers
Plenty of internet-famous US candy brands never get official UK distribution, which means the only routes to buying them are grey-market importers or resellers — often at a significant markup, with no guarantee on freshness or authenticity. If a brand isn't showing up through normal UK wholesale channels, that's usually why.
What we actually stock right now
We don't currently stock Niko B or Shades by Niko Sweets — we can't find it through our normal suppliers, and we're not going to claim otherwise. What we do carry, in the same extreme-sour, internet-popular American candy space, is the full Warheads Mini Extreme Sour Hard Candy 49g and Warheads Sour Chewy Cubes 113g range, both well stocked, plus Warheads Super Sour Twist & Shake Eggo 18g and a wide range of Vidal sour sweets, including Vidal Fizzy Strawberry Belts 5p Tub 1.3KG.
