Skips Prawn Cocktail snacks

Skips are a popular snack brand originally launched in the United Kingdom in 1974. Known for their unique melty texture and iconic Prawn Cocktail flavor, they were first created by KP Snacks. The snack is primarily made from tapioca starch, which gives it its signature light and airy consistency that ‘melts’ on the tongue.

Today, Skips remain a staple in the British snack market. The brand is owned by KP Snacks Limited, which itself is a subsidiary of Intersnack Group, a major European snack food manufacturer based in Germany. While the brand’s heritage is firmly rooted in the UK, its ultimate ownership sits with the multinational Intersnack organization, which manages a wide portfolio of savory snack brands across Europe.
