History

[edit]

Bubbaloo was the first bubblegum with a liquid center[citation needed] and made its debut in Mexican and Brazilian markets in 1983.[citation needed] Today, Bubbaloo is sold in more than 25 countries and in three different continents across the world.[citation needed]

In Mexico and Brazil, Bubbaloo has been one of the leading bubble gum brands and is widely recognised across multiple product categories, maintaining a leading position within the bubble gum market.[citation needed]

In addition, Bubba The Cat (the longtime brand icon and mascot), is often described as creative, original, ingenious and intelligent.[citation needed]

Bubbaloo launched in India in 2007.[1]

In 2022, Mondelez sold their Bubbaloo gum brand, along with all of their other chewing gum brands operating in the United States, Canada and Europe to Perfetti Van Melle.[2]
