Trolli is a renowned German brand of gummy candies, most famous for inventing the 'Gummy Worm'. The brand's origin dates back to 1948 in Germany, founded by Willy Mederer. It is characterized by its creative and often eccentric candy shapes, such as burgers, eggs, and various animals.

While the brand has its roots in Germany, it has evolved into a global powerhouse. Manufacturing takes place in multiple locations including Germany, Spain, and the United States to serve different regional markets. The ownership structure is split: in Europe and most of the world, the brand remains under the Mederer Group, while in the United States, the brand was sold and is now owned and managed by the Ferrara Candy Company (a subsidiary of the Ferrero Group). This dual-ownership ensures that Trolli remains a staple in the confectionery aisle across continents.
