The Fruit Factory makes chewy fruit strings and twisted fruit snacks that are nothing like the standard crisp aisle fare. If you want something sweeter and chewier without abandoning the snack food altogether, this is where to look.
What The Fruit Factory Offers
The range here focuses on fruit-based sweets and strings rather than traditional crisps. You get products like Tropical Twists, which deliver concentrated fruit flavour in a chewy, satisfying format. There is also Sour Apple Fruit Strings if you prefer a sharper bite, and Mixed Fruit Twists for variety. The Strawberry, Apple and Orange Fruit Strings round out the selection with a more classic fruit mix.
Each pack costs just one pound, making it easy to stock up on a few different flavours without spending much. The multipacks are particularly good value if you want to keep several on hand.
Texture and Taste
The Fruit Factory products are chewy rather than crunchy. This matters. If you are after that satisfying snap you get from a proper crisp, this is not it. But if you want to chew on something with genuine fruit flavour that lasts a bit longer, these deliver. The Tropical Twists have that nostalgic quality of sweets you might have eaten as a kid, while the Sour Apple variety adds a tangy edge that keeps things interesting.
The texture means these are less messy than crisps. You will not get that fine dust on your fingers or your keyboard. That makes them surprisingly handy for eating while working or on the move.
When to Reach for The Fruit Factory
These work best as a palate cleanser or a change of pace from your usual savoury snacking. Some people grab them after lunch to satisfy a sweet craving without going full chocolate or biscuit. Others simply prefer the flavour profile to traditional crisps and make them their go-to snack.
They are also a solid choice if you have people visiting with different snack preferences. While some will want single bags of crisps, others might prefer something sweeter. The Fruit Factory covers that middle ground well.
If you are building a mixed snack selection, The Fruit Factory works alongside savoury options nicely. You could pair a pack of Tropical Twists with Soul Fruit or keep both types of snacks in your cupboard for different moods. When you want something with more structure and variety in one shop, multipacks let you grab several flavours at once.

The Twists and Strings are both chewy fruit products with slightly different shapes and textures. Twists tend to have a more wound structure, while Strings are longer and thinner. Both offer concentrated fruit flavour and the same satisfying chew.
