Edible alcohol? Why these gummy bears have a 12,000 waitlist

Which goes some way in explaining the Yes Way Rosé gummy bears' outrageous popularity - sold exclusively through luxe candy company Sugarfina, there are currently 12,000 people - and counting - on the wait list for the first drop, vogue.com reports. Crazy? Yes. Curious? Definitely.

The luxury lollies aren't just infused with any old cheap plonk, but Whispering Angel Rosé- it's what they all drink in the Hamptons, darlings - and they've already spawned knock-offs. The Sugafina website warns of imitation varieties made - gasp! - without any real alcohol at all.

If you've gone off rosé, there's also Champagne Bears infused with Dom Perignon (what else?) and Pale Ale Pints gummies. But before you ask, no - the alcohol evaporates during the cooking process.
