Ricola Elderflower (Hyldeblomst) sugar-free herb drops

Ricola is a world-renowned Swiss brand famous for its herb-based drops. The brand was founded in 1930 by Emil Richterich in Laufen, Switzerland. Each candy is characterized by a unique blend of 13 Swiss mountain herbs, which are still grown in the Swiss Alps using natural methods. This specific elderflower (Hyldeblomst) variety is a sugar-free version popular in the Danish market.

Unlike many global snack brands, Ricola has remained a family-owned business for generations. It is currently owned by Ricola Group AG. The manufacturing process is highly centralized, with the production of the herb base occurring exclusively in Switzerland to ensure quality and brand integrity. From its headquarters in Laufen, Ricola exports its products to over 50 countries worldwide, maintaining a strong identity associated with Swiss purity and traditional herbal knowledge.
