Aussie Drops Eucalyptus

Aussie Drops is a quintessential Australian confectionery brand specializing in eucalyptus-based throat lozenges and hard candies. Founded in 1983 in Sydney by the Confectionery Trading Company (CTC Australia), the brand was created to provide a soothing treat inspired by the natural medicinal properties of Australian eucalyptus oil. Over the decades, it has become a staple in Australian households, recognized for its iconic green packaging and distinctive koala logo.

The product is manufactured and packed in Australia, with CTC Australia operating a state-of-the-art SQF-accredited facility and warehouse in New South Wales. The manufacturing process involves adding high-quality eucalyptus oil and menthol at the end of the cooking stage to ensure a potent flavor release and long-lasting aroma.

Today, Aussie Drops remains under the ownership of the Confectionery Trading Company (CTC Australia), which is a family-owned business now in its second generation of leadership. While other segments of the Australian food industry have seen significant consolidation—such as the acquisition of Menora Foods by Monde Nissin—Aussie Drops continues to be a flagship local brand for CTC Australia, maintaining its heritage as an 100% Australian-made and owned product.
