Gummy Bear Vape
Gummy bear is one of the most reliable sweet flavours in UK vaping. It takes the mixed fruit sugar rush of a bag of gummy sweets and stretches it across a full bottle, usually landing somewhere between strawberry, raspberry, orange and a soft candy base. This collection holds 24 gummy bear e-liquids, running from 10ml nic salts at £2.89 up to 100ml shortfills at £7.99.
The flavour appears in almost every format the UK market offers, so the practical question is which bottle suits the device you already own. The sections below cover the profile itself, the formats it comes in, the strengths available and how all that sweetness affects your coils.
What gummy bear vape juice tastes like
Most gummy bear blends are built on a mixed fruit accord rather than a single fruit. Strawberry and raspberry usually lead, with orange, lemon or blackcurrant filling in behind. Underneath sits the confectionery note that makes it read as sweets rather than fruit juice, a chewy sugary base that lingers after the exhale. Sweetener levels are typically high.
Variations on the theme
The range here is not limited to one interpretation. Grape gummy bear leads with dark grape over the candy base. Blue razz takes the blue raspberry route for something sharper. White gummy bear is the pineapple leaning version, while red sits closer to cherry and strawberry. Frozen and below zero versions add a cooling agent that turns the same profile into an ice blend.
Formats and how to pick one
10ml nicotine salts
Most of this collection is 10ml nic salt. Nicotine salt is smoother in the throat than freebase at the same strength, which is what makes 20mg usable in a small pod kit. These bottles are typically a 50/50 blend of propylene glycol and vegetable glycerin, so they wick easily through the tight coils used in mouth to lung devices.
Shortfills
A shortfill is sold nicotine free with headroom left in the bottle. The 100ml gummy bear shortfill here arrives as 100ml of liquid in a 120ml bottle so you can add two 10ml nicotine shots yourself, taking the finished 120ml to 3mg. Shortfills are usually high VG, commonly 70/30, which suits sub ohm coils rather than pod kits.
Bar shortfills and salt fill bottles
Two middle formats sit between those. The 40ml bar shortfill is a smaller nicotine free bottle sized to take a single 10ml nicotine shot. Salt fill bottles such as the 30ml and 60ml options here arrive with the nicotine salt shots included, which gets you more finished liquid than a single 10ml bottle allows.
Brands stocked in this collection
The gummy bear range here is spread across bar inspired lines and established juice houses. Bar Juice, Bar Series and Bar Vape all carry a version, as do Elux Legend, Hayati Pro Max, Pod Salt Nexus, Crystal Clear, Pixl, Doozy Vape, Just Juice and Big Salts. Bar Vape covers both the 10ml salt and the 100ml shortfill.
Matching gummy bear e-liquid to your device
Coil resistance decides the bottle. A coil above 1.0 ohm is a mouth to lung coil and wants a 50/50 liquid, which means a 10ml nic salt at 10mg or 20mg. A coil below 1.0 ohm needs a thicker high VG shortfill at 3mg or 6mg, because thin 50/50 liquid floods the chamber and leaks. Putting 20mg salt through a sub ohm coil produces a harsh hit rather than a stronger one.
Sweet flavours and coil life
There is a cost to a sweet profile. The sucralose that makes gummy bear taste like confectionery caramelises onto the coil as it heats, building a dark crust that dulls flavour long before the cotton wears out. Expect a coil or pod to last roughly half as long on a candy blend as on a light fruit. Priming properly and keeping wattage low both help.
Nicotine strengths and UK limits
Nicotine e-liquid sold in the UK is capped at 20mg per ml and nicotine bottles are limited to 10ml. Twenty milligrams of salt suits anyone switching from a heavier cigarette habit or moving across from a pre-filled pod kit. Ten milligrams is the usual step down. Shortfills sidestep the bottle size limit by being sold with no nicotine at all. Everything here is for adults aged 18 and over.
Delivery and help choosing
UK delivery is free on orders over £20. Two shortfills or a handful of 10ml bottles will clear that comfortably. If you are not sure which format fits your kit, the team can check coil compatibility for you on 07827 210361 between 8.30am and 4.00pm.
Gummy bear vape questions answered
What does gummy bear vape juice taste like?
Most versions build a mixed fruit accord over a sweet confectionery base. Strawberry and raspberry usually sit at the front with orange or blackcurrant behind them. The candy note underneath is what separates it from a straight fruit mix, giving a chewy sugary finish that stays on the exhale. Sweetener levels tend to be high.
Which nicotine strength should I pick?
UK law caps nicotine e-liquid at 20mg per ml. In a mouth to lung pod kit, 20mg nic salt suits anyone coming from a heavier cigarette habit or from a pre-filled pod kit, while 10mg is the usual step down. If you vape a coil below 1.0 ohm, use a shortfill at 3mg or 6mg instead.
What is the difference between a 10ml nic salt and a 100ml shortfill?
A 10ml bottle already contains nicotine at up to 20mg per ml and is normally a 50/50 blend built for pod kits and mouth to lung coils. A 100ml shortfill contains no nicotine at all. It arrives as 100ml of high VG liquid in a 120ml bottle so you add two 10ml nicotine shots yourself, taking the finished 120ml to 3mg.
Does gummy bear e-liquid work in a pre-filled pod kit?
Not directly. A pre-filled pod arrives sealed with its own liquid inside and is swapped rather than refilled, so you cannot put a bottle of gummy bear into it. If you want this flavour you need a refillable device, which is where the 10ml nic salts in this collection come in.
Will gummy bear e-liquid burn out my coils faster?
Yes, noticeably. The sucralose that gives the flavour its sweetness caramelises on a hot coil and forms a dark residue that mutes flavour well before the cotton is finished. A coil that might run two weeks on a menthol will often give around a week on a candy blend. Priming properly and running at lower wattage claws some of that back.
Which brands make gummy bear e-liquid here?
The collection spans Bar Juice, Bar Series, Bar Vape, Elux Legend, Hayati Pro Max, Pod Salt Nexus, Crystal Clear, Pixl, Doozy Vape, Just Juice and Big Salts. Bar Vape is the one brand carrying both a 10ml nic salt and a 100ml shortfill of the flavour.
How much does gummy bear vape juice cost and is delivery free?
The 10ml nic salts start at £2.89 with most sitting at £3.29. The 100ml shortfill and the 40ml bar shortfill are £7.99 and the 30ml or 60ml salt fill with shots included is £9.99. UK delivery is free on orders over £20. The team is on 07827 210361 between 8.30am and 4.00pm.
